Revlon Colour Stay Aqua Mineral Makeup in ivory.
Aqua, mineral powder... you must be joking, right?! wrong.I am like a magpie with a shiny 50 pence coin when it comes to things which seem a little odd, so of course when I saw this I just had to get it! When I first picked this up, I was very sceptical. Now, it has replaced my HG powder on a night out, and if my skin is looking mighty fine I use this by itself. I am a full coverage girl, and although this claims to be a mineral powder foundation, I would not dream of using it on its own unless I was having an extremely good skin day (which happens very very rarely) I tend to dust this over the top of my make up, especially if I know there is going to be some happy snappers where I am going.
This powder is very finely milled and contains coconut water for hydration, which applies like a dream and feels god damn magnificent. The powder is predominantly matte however there are light reflecting particles that can admittedly look a little shimmery in day light, but at night or under artificial light this is just the best.
Back to the coconut water - this makes the powder feel moist and light, but not in a cakey "I didn't take my make up off before I went to the gym" way.
I am very very pale and the lightest shade has a slight yellow undertone which when paired with the correct colour and tone of foundation works beautifully.
I do not like the brush that the powder comes with, although it is a pretty neat idea I feel the tightly packet bristles are far too harsh on my sensitive skin - a real techniques buffing brush works perfectly for this little pot of wonders.
