Comments about Revlon ColorStay Finishing Powder:
I've tried better at this price. It does a decent job of keeping my make-up in it's place, but it doesn't control shine and it slightly lightens my face's color.
Pros
- Blends Well
- Controls Shine
- Covers Well
- Easy To Apply
- Lightweight
Cons

Comments about Revlon ColorStay Finishing Powder:
This is the only actual plain translucent power that I could find at Ulta. I do not like the case; too much plastic and too large. Not as sleek as other brand compacts.
Pros
- Controls Shine

Comments about Revlon ColorStay Finishing Powder:
I was honestly so confused when I received this, it's just a regular pressed compact foundation but there is no pigment in it. It does help control shine but no where on it does it say it's a "finishing powder". It seems to be helping keep my liquid foundation from sliding or wiping off but just note that it does make you look lighter when you apply it. I follow it up with bronzer since it takes my foundation a whole shade lighter. Probably wont buy it again but worth trying. The compact itself it's rather weird, you open it half way just to get to the product then all the way reveals the small powder applicator underneath. Cool idea, I apply it with a powder brush and get good results.
Pros
- Easy To Apply
- Lightweight
- Silky Finish
Cons
- Settles In Creases
- Unnatural Color

Comments about Revlon ColorStay Finishing Powder:
I've used the beige color before and liked it so I thought this time I would try the translucent, but it is very visible. I wasn't expecting it to be completely translucent, but I have to make sure to sweep a brush across my face to remove excess and blend.
Pros

Cons
- Blotchy
- Causes Breakouts

Comments about Revlon ColorStay Finishing Powder:
This translucent powder was an impulse buy but I am pleased. I use it to set my under eye concealer. Then, after I use my skin tone color powder over my entire face, I set my face with this again. This controls the oils very well. My skin is very oily and it keeps it at bay. I may have to blot after about 4-5 hours of wear which is wonderful.

Comments about Revlon ColorStay Finishing Powder:
I got this in the lightest color and I wouldn't buy it again in that color. It looks too pale, which is surprising for me because I'm 99% of the time the palest shade a brand offers. I would buy it again, but a shade darker. I use a brush to apply rather than the sponge it comes with (which seems to make the color a little more even). It's a good powder. It doesn't say that it's oil-free or non-comedegenic so I'd be careful if you're acne-prone.

Comments about Revlon ColorStay Finishing Powder:
This is a great powder but way too light for my skin and I'm pretty pale. I have more dry skin so this isn't perfect for me but I will continue to use it and recommend it to my friends with oily skin.
