Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse – 502 Warm Caramel – Foundation, Lightweight, Shine Control, Oil-Free, 1oz

Years Later, Still My Favorite Foundation
This has been my go-to foundation for years, and for good reason. It delivers on exactly what I need: full coverage that actually lasts all day. I have naturally oily skin, and this foundation has always worked with my skin, not against it. It has a slightly chalky texture at first, which I know might not be for everyone, but for me, that matte finish is exactly what helps keep the shine under control throughout the day. No constant blotting or touch-ups needed.What I really love is how versatile it is. I can use just a tiny amount and blend it in for a more natural, everyday look, or I can build it up for full glam, especially for things like weddings. Either way, it never feels too heavy on my skin, and it holds up beautifully.The size of the product is also a win. You get a generous amount for the price, which makes it an amazing value, especially considering how little you need to use at a time. A little really does go a long way.At the end of the day, it does exactly what I want a foundation to do: stays put, keeps me shine-free, and gives me options whether I want light or full coverage.Pros:✅ Full coverage that lasts all day✅ Great for oily skin✅ Buildable for both natural and glam looks✅ A little goes a long way✅ Generous size for the price✅ Long-time trusted productCons:❌ Can feel a little chalky, especially if you prefer a dewy or moisturizing finish❌ May not be ideal for dry skin, unless used with a hydrating primer

very thick, but nice. not suited for dry skin
the texture of this foundation is something im not used to. it’s SUPER thick, like way thicker than toothpaste. maybe that doesnt bother others, but i’m used to quite liquidy foundations. i found this somewhat hard to blend because of that. it also got stuck and hardened on my brush just bc of how thick it is. however, i mixed it on my hand with some moisturizer and it was fine to use after that. coverage and appearance wise, this was actually lovely. i dont think it even looked like i had makeup on, just like i had perfect airbrushed skin. it was full coverage without being too cakey or anything, it looks really nice!! i can’t speak for longevity as i literally just tested this out, but i’ll update on that soon. also, i think this is the first foundation ive ever used that smells like absolutely nothing. the distinct smell of foundation has never bothered me, but not having it is nice.unfortunately the shade i bought isn’t the greatest match for me and i was issued a refund without a return (one of the only times i’d complain about that), so i’ll probably mix this in a jar with more moisturizer to make it less opaque so i can use it :)UPDATE DO NOTTT MIX THIS WITH MOISTURIZER IN ANY WAY PLEASE😭 this foundation is silicone based while most moisturizers (and liquid primers) are water based, and the 2 do NOTTT go well together.. it’s like oil and water but.. chunky.. eugh pls don’t make my mistake. my skin is too dry for makeup if i dont use a moisturizer right before so unfortunately i can’t use this foundation 🙁

Covers nicely!
I tried this yesterday evening covered my face so smooth, color I chose doesn’t match my face , but I added different color to blend in, this worked out well! Makeup so light can’t feel it on your skin, I didn’t even need any stay on spray , tested it by sleeping with it on did not stain pillow , was still in tact this morning and looked good! I washed off easily, great product!

Fantastic Matte Foundation
Can’t believe how wonderful this foundation is. It’s really, really matte (which I LOVE) and you don’t even need loose powder as a finishing touch. Goes on smoothly, conceals problem areas beautifully, sells at a low price point, and stays in place all day. It’s a keeper and I’m now a loyal customer!

I use it since 6/7 years . Best base for matte make up , especially for lips ♥️…

Good
