Maybelline New York SuperStay Better Skin Foundation has been formulated to not only instantly even out skin tone and leave skin looking radiantly healthy, but to improve it in the long-term, too. Ingredients of vitamin B5, septonic M3, magnesium, zinc and copper all work together to hydrate and plump the skin, while SPF 14 helps to protect skin from sun damage.

While most members were impressed with how the foundation smoothed their skin and left their complexions looking more even, some commented that they hadn’t yet noticed any long-term effects of using the foundation during the three-week trial period. Many were pleased with the level of coverage and how lightweight the formula felt on their skin and most found the foundation lasted a good few hours. Overall, members were impressed by the coverage and how even their skin looked.

Some members commented that the shade they selected wasn’t the perfect colour match for their skin tone, which made it hard for them to give a proper review, and those with drier skin types found they needed to use moisturiser or primer before application.

You say:

“I found it spread quite easily, and gave an even and slightly matte finish. It’s extremely lightweight, and not oily at all, which I loved.” – Norriscath.Read more…

“I couldn’t fault the wear of this on my skin. After a full day’s wear it looked as though I’d freshly applied it! This, I might add, was also worn without a primer and directly over moisturiser, so full marks in this department Maybelline!” – kireina.Read more…

“I found that if I didn’t blend this foundation soon after applying it to my face then it was a bit more difficult to blend. Once applied, the finish is medium coverage and looks very natural on the skin. It’s not shiny, but not completely matte either on me – just a really nice, natural glow.” – Jessica712.Read more…

“My skin looked more even toned…instantly! The finish of the foundation is semi-matte and my blotchy skin and minor skin imperfections disappeared in front of my eyes, leaving a clearer, more even-toned, flawless look. My dark pigmentation spots on my cheeks were still peeking through, but certainly less noticeable and I could have gotten away without applying a concealer if I wished.” – Claire88.Read more…

“The foundation feels very comfortable and moisturising on the skin, and gives an even semi-matte look with a nice glow. Surprisingly, it lasts more or less all day on my combination skin, without changing colour or settling into fine lines.” – Princess Fiona1.Read more…

“It has a relatively thick consistency when first dispensed from the bottle but, to my surprise, it applied easily with my beauty blender. The results are flawless – it gives me fantastic coverage without washing me out or drying out my skin.” – Ms Billi. Read more…
