VERY SCRATCHY BRUSH |
My Opinion: - Mineral makeup is a rage ever since it came into the makeup scenario. I was using Revlon Mineral Foundation for sometimes but it was discontinued for some reason. That's when I found this Streetwear Stay On Mineral Foundation and decided to give it a shot. The powder is very finely milled and contains some finely milled shimmer in it.
I got the shade Marble as the SA swatched it on my hand and I chose it. It matched my skin tone totally. The packaging is similar to most mineral foundations. A plastic transparent jar/tub with a kabuki brush attached to its lid and a small round mirror on the top of the jar/tub. It is fragrance free which I like. The kabuki is very scratchy and irritates my skin so I use a powder brush to apply it.
I tried applying it over my moisturiser/sunscreen but it was too difficult to blend. I somehow wanted to make it work, so again I tried it over my liquid foundation and it worked. Since this mineral foundation gives light coverage and is not buildable. It looks cakey and ugly if I somehow try to build up the coverage. It is very easy to go overboard with this mineral foundation. The presence of the shimmers gives a very artificial whitish cast which is much hated by all of us.
VERY FINELY MILLED POWDER |
ARTIFICIAL WHITE CAST |
Because of the above mentioned points, I used it as a loose powder to set my foundation. This mineral foundation oxidizes a bit even upon application over foundation. It gives a nice dewy glow to my skin instead of a matte finish. It stays on for 4 hours max in non-air conditioned environment but it stays about an hour longer in an air-conditioned environment. It makes my skin greasy and shiny in an hour. Its not worth the price it retails in, Rs 600-650 is too much for such a product. I had to use it up as a loose powder to set my foundation.
Pros: -
* Easily Available
* Didn't break me out or irritated my skin/break outs
* Little goes a long way
* Sets my foundation well
* Fragrance-free
Cons: -
* Expensive considering the quality of this Mineral Foundation
* Oxidizes to some extent
* Gives very light coverage
* Not long lasting
* Gives a whitish cast
* Difficult to blend
I rate Streetwear Stay On Mineral Foundation 3 out of 5. This is a product I regret buying and I would request all you girlies to check it out first and then go for it. Or simply I recommend please don't waste your money on it.
