I have an oily complexion and after a few hours of wear my face was already shiny. For the price it is a good buy though, especially if you don't have an oily complexion or only need to wear it for a couple of hours. If you are looking for an all day wear, i'd use something else.

This foundation is unique in its thick yet mousse-like texture and opacity. It can, however, be difficult to blend if using anything but your fingers, thus the loss of one star. I have attempted application with a brush and a sponge but find the warmth of my fingers helps the product glide more smoothly over my face. I have worn this in the dead heat of summer and was impressed by the staying power and lack of oil breakthrough. One of my favorites.

DId not like the first time I used, however, I have fallen in love with it! Great product and definitely stays matte!

Good for the price

This foundation has very good coverage and if used correctly it can look beautiful. I found that using the Rimmel Stay Matte PRIMER is a must. Otherwise, it will look too cakey and it will dry out. Also, use very sparingly. A little goes a long way!

This foundation is georgous. it lookes good with my light skinand doesn't make me look orange.

For a drug store foundation that helps oily skin, this is one of the best. Really enjoy this foundation

If you're looking for a foundation that is cheap, has good coverage and stays matte, then you will like this. I do not have oily skin, but I have read many reviews where people say this helps control oil very well. For less than $5, this is a great foundation.

This foundation feels good on the skin and does not feel heavy. It does provide good coverage and it is pretty inexpensive. However, it does not provide lasting coverage. I was already oily after just 3 hours of wear. I was using blotting sheets and powder to get rid of the extra oil. By the end of the day not much of the foundation on my face was left. Also, this foundation made my skin break out. It is definitely worth to try for the price but it did not work for me.

I loved it days 1-5: was light and soft feeling. Did not settle into creases or pores. True to it's name, kept my skin matte and shine free. The color matched my undertones without being too pink or yellow. Days 6 though 20 (current): not as much shine control. It settles into the pores on my cheeks and forehead quickly. There are dry patches on my jawline now where it is too matte. It does however still feel light and soft on my skin. The color match is spot-on. But after a few hours, it starts to slide off my face and settle where it's not supposed to. For under $5 a tube, I shouldn't complain, I've spent more on a fast food value meal and that made me break out.
