The Candid concealer is available in 18 shades, has great medium coverage and blends beautifully. I’ve been using the concealer both with the foundation and on its own with other foundations and find it works beautifully with whatever product I pair it with. It’s actually my first time EVER using a concealer from Revlon…and so far we’re off to a great start. To match the Revlon Candid foundation, Revlon also released a matching concealer that’s pretty darn great. The foundation is creamy enough that it builds nicely without getting cake-y. Personally I like when my freckles are able to shine through as that means my makeup actually looks true to my normal appearance, but if you do want heavier coverage…go ahead and add a second layer. That said, it does a pretty bang up job at covering the redness near my nose and any discoloration in my under eye area.

Hooray! Medium CoverageĪs you can see in the photos of me above, my freckles DO shine through the Candid foundation. So this is definitely a set it and forget it type of foundation. And I’m criminal when it comes to touching up…as in I don’t, at all.

(I’m loving the Elf Mineral Infused Primer at the moment.)Īfter applying this in the morning, I’m able to get through a full work day and evening out with no trouble at all. Generally speaking, though, I think all drugstore foundations perform better with a primer so that’s not a huge deal.

On days where I mistakenly skipped the primer, I found this did slip around on the skin and start to break up a bit in my T-zone. I definitely dub the Revlon Candid Foundation to be quite long lasting…WHEN worn with a primer. After applying this in the morning, I literally forget I even have it on as I go about my day.

So to say that the Candid foundation is indeed lightweight is a HUGE plus as far as I’m concerned.

Probably the biggest *flaw* of the Revlon ColorStay foundation for me was just how uncomfortable and heavy it felt on my skin. The formula is quite creamy and blends into the skin with minimal effort. The Candid foundation has a really nice satin finish, that has a very natural “your skin but better” appearance. This is definitely something to be aware of incase you’re alarmed (like I was) by how light it is when coming out of the tube. Then, I realized that it actually oxidizes about two shades as it sets on your skin. Upon applying, I thought the foundation was going to be too light for my skin tone. In the end, I went with the shade 270 Medium Beige. Instead, you have to rely on a replicating image of what the shade is supposed to look like…which we all know isn’t always the case in reality. The packaging is not transparent, meaning you don’t actually get to see the foundation itself when trying to find the best match. With such a vast shade range to choose from, I did have a tricky time accurately coloring matching myself.

There are 31 shades in total available, which is pretty darn great! Could it actually WORK for me?ĭetermined to find out, I picked up both the foundation and matching concealer with plans to give them the old college try!Īt the drugstore, I was impressed to see the Revlon Candid foundation has a relatively large shade selection. But with so many fantastic foundations coming out of the drugstore lately, I was very hopeful the Revlon Candid foundation would be a different story altogether. I’ve tried both the oil and non-oily skin formulas and both broke apart and made me want to claw my face off after just a few hours. While their ColorStay foundation is a cult favorite for many, I just never got on with it. Truth be told, I don’t have the best history with Revlon foundations.

My research tells me that the Revlon Candid foundation was actually released in late 2018, so it’s not entirely new…but relatively new enough I guess to warrant Revlon including *New* on the packaging.
