REVOLUTION PRO FULL COVER CAMOUFLAGE FOUNDATION REVIEW



Well hello there!
Today I have another review post for you and this is for the Revolution Pro Full Cover Camouflage Foundation. Revolution Pro is part of Revolution Beauty so this is indeed a drugstore foundation and retails for only £7! This claims to be a highly pigmented and creamy foundation, it will create maximum coverage with an even, natural-looking finish. Let's see for ourselves!

Packaging
This foundation comes in a squeezy tube and this already makes it a good product to travel with, the black sticks with the theme of all of the Revolution Pro products which I like as it looks very sophisticated. It feels very lightweight which again makes it very travel friendly, and it is quite a small compact tube so you won't need to worry about it taking up too much room in your makeup bag. It does hold 25ml of product which is slightly less than a normal foundation amount but because of the price you can't really complain about that.

Application
The first thing I notice when applying this foundation is how easy it is to blend, as long as you don't use too much of it, it will blend out beautifully on your skin. It does have a semi-matte finish so it definitely has a shine but it is not completely dewy, I already know that this might effect the longevity of it on my oily t-zone but we shall see. It is a very pigmented and opaque product and a little goes a long way with this. The first layer has a good medium coverage to it, and you can build this up to full which is what I prefer a foundation to do because then you can control how much you are putting on.

Longevity
As mentioned this is a semi-matte formula and I knew this was not going to be long lasting on me. I have definitely tried other foundations that don't last long that were worse than this, but this did not last as long as matte foundations e.g. the Maybelline Super Stay Foundation. It's just a fact for me that if the foundation is not completely matte when applied my oils will start to come through a lot quicker. I tested this for around 10 hours so I put this on at 7:30, by the early afternoon my oils started to peak through and by the end of the day my t-zone was completely oily. 

Opinion
So what is my final verdict on the Revolution Pro Full Cover Camouflage Foundation?! I love the formula of the foundation itself, it is super creamy and pigmented - it can be built up to full coverage as well so I do agree with this claim. It is full coverage in a way where it is not drying at all like some matte foundations do, it is semi-matte so I generally think people with dry skin will love this. The only thing I do not like about this is that it does not last long on my skin, but that was a given considering it isn't a matte foundation. I probably won't wear this to work again but 100% I will wear this on the weekends and when I know I won't be wearing foundation for a long period of time, even on a night out! What an absolute bargain for a foundation that has a formula like this, I would recommend this to someone who wants a full coverage foundation that is not drying/matte.

  2. It's such a shame that this doesn't last too well on you because it sounds perfect apart from that! I get pretty oily during the day too so would have the same problem
