“When it comes to a foundation formula that won’t break the bank but will deliver on performance, this new option from Revlon is a fantastic and affordable option. A lot of drugstore foundations can be a little on the heavy side, which leaves the skin with a one-dimensional finish. The great thing about this formula is it has buildable coverage for a flawless end result, but it still lets enough natural texture show through so the skin looks healthy and radiant.

“I always like to start applying foundation to moisturized skin using a medium-sized synthetic buffing brush to polish the product onto the face, starting in the center and working outward. Then, I’ll warm the product on the back of my hand and go back in using my fingers to pat the product on areas where I need a little more coverage, which is generally around the nose, across the cheeks, and around the chin and lips."
