Review:Revolution Conceal And Define Foundation

If you've heard of the brand Revolution then you've probably heard of their Conceal And Define Concealer. And again if you've heard of it, then you've probably brought it and love it, like myself. So when I heard they releasing it in a foundation, I knew I just had to try it.

Available in 24 shades, the Conceal and Define Foundation is advertised as a full coverage, long wear foundation feels light weight on the skin and is aimed at every skin tone and skin type. I did the worst thing someone could do, I brought a foundation without trying it out first. I brought the shade F1 as it looks exactly the same as the shade C1 in the concealer and luckily for me, it's the exact same shade. I paired the concealer and the foundation side by side and there is absolutely no difference between the two of them. So if you know what shade you are in the concealer, you'll have a good idea of what shade will work with your skin.

I absolutely adore this foundation. I haven't edited or added a filtered to this picture. I took it in front of my window when I got home from a nine hour shift at work. Nine hours and my foundation still look flawless. I didn't touch it up, I didn't add any powder at all and it still looked this good after being on my skin for a good nine hours. There was no fading, oxidisation or cake face to be seen. I can honestly not get over how good this foundation it is. It's full coverage but not heavy or clogging on the skin, in fact it feels like you're wearing nothing on your skin. It definitely lives up to it's lightweight claims and it's oil free formula means I can get away with not setting this with powder, just a light spritz of setting spray. Throughout the day I didn't find my face shiny and there was absolutely no wear in any of the normal places where other foundations wear away on me.

My only bug bear with this product is the applicator. It has an oversized doe foot applicator which is great for precision and quick application but it only holds so much product and I find myself dipping back in two or three times to make sure I have enough foundation to do my whole face. It's not the biggest issue as a product and I can happily live with it as the giant applicator means I don't have to pump it out onto the back of my hand and waste any product. At only £9 a bottle, this foundation in my opinion is a game changer. It's shade range, coverage and longevity puts that of other, larger, more well known brands to shame. I've tried an array of high street budget foundations but none of them have impressed me as much or as quickly as this one has. If you're a fan of the Conceal and Define Concealer, I highly recommend you check out the foundation. The same stands if you're looking for a budget friendly long wear, full coverage foundation that'll actually live up to it's claims.
