Worked great for my oily skin
I was recommended this foundation for cosplay purposes due to its large shade range and affordable price. When I purchased this in the shade Oatmeal, I wasn't expecting it to match me perfectly since I had been shade matched with a different shade on the Revlon website, but it was on sale and I figured I could at least test the formula before giving it to someone else. Turns out that it matches me perfectly if I'm not trying to brighten my skin, which is exactly what I was aiming for. I'm naturally cool toned and pale but live in a sunny area where my warm, tan overtone can make finding foundation matches difficult. The formula itself is very nice. The foundation is fairly liquid, not a super thick consistency, which allows me to paint it on in thin layers on my skin. After setting for a bit, it stays on very well, and can be built up with another thin brushed or sponged layer for extra coverage. It works so well with any silicone based primer (I use elf's poreless putty primer) and lasts a long time. When it does come off, it doesn't break as much as just disappear, which I prefer as it looks cleaner at the end of the day.

Good quality in a drugstore brand
I'm able to get a very good match at the light end of this range. Although that may not be a sympathetic issue, it can be a problem for me, esp. in a drugstore brand. The texture is good and it spreads a lot like Estee Lauder DoubleWear. It's easy to control the sheerness with a sponge, but this isn't intended to be sheer. I would call it medium coverage makeup, with good blendability. I always use a sponge for better control. The wear is very good for my oily t-zone in the combo/oily choice. This is one of my favorites, even compared to high-end brands. It's noteworthy that this is good for photography as well, and doesn't give you the strange cast some brands do under camera lights. Higher-end brands are marketed for photography, so it's a shame Revlon doesn't make this more clear in its marketing.

Great
I take 180 and 150 to mix it up to get the right color. Works like magic, better then lux brands

Stays on pretty darn well
I bought this because I need something that stays on for a long time (at least 16 hours) without major touchups and is decently transfer resistant. I've worn it a couple of times (including in the snow with a balaclava on my face) and it seems to do pretty well. It does oxidize quite a bit and looked a bit grey on me so I bought the next color down on the neutral chart but it's way too pink, especially after it oxidizes. The photos I posted are of 140 and 150. I just bought the lightest color they make and plan to mix it with the other two for a more custom color. We'll see how that goes. I normally have very very very oily skin but I recently started a low dose of Accutane so it's improving. I don't think this would stay on well if my skin were as oily as normal. I also tried the L'Oreal infallible fresh wear in shade 415. It oxidizes as well but not a bad. I think it looks better overall but it's not nearly as transfer resistant.

Great for oily skin!
I watch the makeup TikTokers like everyone else, and this is the foundation I routinely return to. Great coverage, long wear, and LOTS of shades. A must have for the oily girls!

Better than KVD lock it and MAC prolong wear
First, about me: light to medium skin tone, neutral undertones, 30 years old, female, combination/oily (mostly oily in T-Zone), acne prone (mostly hormonal), and I experience redness by my nose and cheeks. What I was looking for in foundation: medium/buildable coverage, controls oiliness, long lasting, doesn't transfer, doesn't budge, doesn't settle into my pores or lines. What I have tried: - MAC prolong wear nourishing waterproof foundation in color NC27 — this color was great for the winter/early spring. It matched perfectly and didn't oxidize. However, it did a terrible job with controlling my oiliness & shine. After a full day, it started to fill my pores and lines on my forehead. I was not even going to test it's waterproof ability because it was just sitting on my face and would wipe off with just a light touch. Perhaps it just needs a good setting powder or spray (which I have not found yet). - Kat Von D Lock-it foundation — Um, this was a joke. The colors are not great. I tried two (I used online tools to find the right shade) and one was too yellow. The other was actually fine, but I had already tanned quite a bit by the time it was delivered, so it was a bit on the lighter side. I tried this product several ways, with and without primer, with and without setting spray, with and without setting powder... this product just will not “lock” down. It just sat on my face and was so much worse than the MAC. It was so disappointing. I almost feel like KVD means well, and the models on the site are diverse, but her products are just not meant for all skin types. I've definitely tried other products, but I wanted to mention those two because they kept popping up on my search for foundation and they are on the higher end of my budget. Finally, I came across this product: Revlon ColorStay for combination/oily skin. I'm not sure what you are looking for, but here is what I love about this product! This goes on so easily, smoothly and lightly, but with medium coverage that I can easily build. It looks so natural! It definitely controls my oily skin. There is a bit of shine after 10 hours, but I don't look oily. If it bothers me, I just blot a little and it stays matte for even longer. Regardless of whether I use primer, or setting spray/powder, it does the same job! I love it! I got it in the color 310 Warm Golden, which is actually a perfect match. However, in case you didn't catch on before, I tan very easily, so I just ordered it in Rich Tan. This foundation does not budge and I haven't had any dramatic transfers like I've had with the other two products that cost almost 5x more than this product. I definitely recommend this for everyday use. I have not had any breakouts and I love that it has SPF. It feels natural and I forget I'm wearing makeup. I think this product went on best when applied with a brush with micro bristles (I ordered this flawless foundation brush on Amazon for about $7). One more thing, I have textured skin (pock marks from acne), and at first, I tried to use more product to fill it in, but it didn't work. However, over time during the day, my skin looked flawless! One thing I did not like, but I'm willing to live with: for some reason it fills my pores a bit on my chin. I don't know how to fix that other than to touch up or blot, but I have been searching for so long for something that I really like, I'm willing to hang on to this one. (I haven't broken out from it either). If you've read this far, thank you. And good luck finding the right foundation for you. Hope this was helpful.

Cobertura media, acabado mate.
No es nuevo para mi, hace años la usaba y deje de hacerlo por la falta de tonos para piel olivo pálido. Compré el tono buff 150 y aunque me queda mejor el buff 120 de la Candid photoready o Nars Gobi, este no oxida tanto a naranja grisaseo como el tono180 qué usaba antes y es más fácil de arreglar con pigmento verde o azul y amarillo. Por lo demás, la. formula es muy buena, la cobertura es media modulable a baja o alta. El terminado es mate y dura unas 6 horas en buen estado. Un poco más si decides retocar con polvo traslúcido o eliminar la oleosidad con un papel absorbente. No se cuartea y funciona bien encima de casi cualquier combinación de suero, hidratante, bloqueador solar y primer. Que bueno que trae dispensador y es de los que puedes apretar más o menos para sacar media gota si así decides. El precio es muy bueno y si encuentras tu tono, compite con varias de gama alta.
