I've been thinking about trying a stick foundation for the longest time after seeing endless reviews and tutorials all over Instagram and You Tube, however not only did I not know which to go for but up until now I've never found any that were in the more 'affordable' price bracket- i.e. drugstore!
The Revolution Fast Base Foundation sticks come in at only £5 each and can be purchased in Superdrug (instore or online) or online at https://www.revolutionbeauty.com/en/gb/Home.aspx
They come in 18 different shades with a variety of undertones, so hopefully most people would be able to find their perfect match. This is great for a low price drugstore product because as you may have already noticed, cheaper brands unfortunately don't tend to stock many shades, especially darker colours. So Revolution is really nailing it on the diversity and the inclusion aspect of their products.
I bought 3 shades; F2 which is light with yellow undertones, F6 is light (but a few shades darker) with yellow undertones, and F13 which is a for darker skin tones with warm undertones. I tend to need different shades depending on the time of year and how tan I am. F2 matches my skin perfectly when it is at it's palest, but it feels a little too light for me at the moment, so I warm my face up with the F13 shade which I use as a bronzer/ contour on my cheeks and around the perimeter of my face. F6 also matches me perfectly when I'm slightly less pale, and I have also tried the 2 & 6 mixed together which is also lovely on me.
The foundation applies lovely. It is so quick and easy to use- blends out beautifully and fast, and looks great on my skin! The formula is very creamy which makes it glide onto the skin, blends easily and the coverage is medium- but buildable to full.
Unfortunately, my skin gets quite oily in the T-zone with some foundations, and it does with this one. But I find that it is fine for everyday use and I can control with oil with blotting sheets and a little bit of powder. However for this reason I wouldn't choose to wear this if I wanted my makeup to look flawless for a long time and didn't want to keep checking my make up in the mirror.
Overall, I do really like this foundation and it has recently become a staple in my makeup bag. I would recommend trying it, especially as it is only £5!
I hope this has been helpful for you. If you would like to purchase online you can buy them here: Fast Base - available in 18 shades
