Maybelline Superstay Full Coverage Foundation Review



We all love Superstay line from Maybelline, so when I got their newest Full Coverage Foundation under the same line, I roadtested them right away, considering I don't get easily excited on new product launches, this is really BIG!

I was lucky enough to get 6 shades so I swatched them all for you!  I personally used and tried Natural Beige as it was the perfect match for me.  Tried it for more than a week and here's what I have to say!

Php499.00

The product is housed in a plastic packaging which is lightweight and good enough for travel.  I love that I can easily see how much product is left but for some who loves the heavy glass packaging, this may come off a bit too "drugstore-ish" for you.

Swatches:
L-R Natural Ivory, Classic Ivory, Warm Nude, Buff Beige, Natural Beige and Sun Beige

Thankfully, the brand has wide variety of shades to fit the Filipina skin.  I personally wish they would add at least 1 DARKEST, Sun Beige is dark but not dark enough for those who are really tanned or have naturally dark complexion.

Let's talk about the texture and quality.

The product is just like any liquid foundation, it's not very watery thus making this a medium to full coverage foundation.  It is highly pigmented so I can get away not wearing concealer whenever I use this product.

Before and After
The product applies seamlessly, easy to work with whether you use your fingers, sponge (wet or dry) or even foundation brush.  It just works and blends so easily I even love how it is fragrance-free and how lightweight it feels.

How about the promise not transferring on clothing, it does transfer a bit but not as much considering I don't set it with face powder.  Dry/normal skinned users can actually get away without setting this product as it sets beautifully without looking oily.  If you have oily skin, I still advice to set this product because it will oil up still around 5-6 hours which isn't so bad.

Half Face Test

Overall, this is a great coverage drugstore foundation, I just worry that some users who have sensitive skin may suffer allergic reactions so patch test is highly recommended.

Thankfully, this foundation does live up to the name SuperStay because less retouching is needed and guess what?  It does not enhance my dry patches and I don't have allergic reactions so far!

But if you ask me, my favorite Maybelline foundation to date will still be Maybelline Dream Velvet Soft Matte Hydrating Foundation because my skin craves for glowing skin and I got it from there.  Matte maybe something I'll be looking for on some days so I can easily pick this one.

How do you like Maybelline Superstay Full Coverage foundation on me?

Keep smilin'
Stay happy!

  1. I use this one too. Same shade as you do. I used to wear the Dream Velvet foundation but I had to replace it because it oxidizes after an hour so. The Superstay one, however, doesn't seem to have the same effect. I've been using it for a month now.

  2. Hi, Ms. Nikki! I just bought the shade 128 yesterday. The Fit Me foundation shade I have is 220 but I decided to get a lighter shade for Superstay because I'm afraid that it will oxidize on me. Fit Me makes my skin look healthy but with Superstay, my skin looked dry and the dry patches are highlighted. One thing I like is that I noticed oiliness after two hours of application unlike with Fit Me where my nose gets oily after thirty minutes. I just wish that lasted longer like 5-6 hours just like what I hear from others. I have oily-combination skin by the way.
