This foundation provides excellent coverage for my liking. I find that it is also "buildable", so if you prefer a heavier coverage, this can be achieved by using more product. I personally prefer a light to medium coverage and find this product perfect for that.
A good variety of shades is available and I was able to find my perfect shade in 290 - Cappuccino. (We all know how the need to mix 2 shades is not only inconvenient, but not budget friendly).
I do actually really like this product..dont like the price but will buy again when out.. some days though i have to put lotion on my face before applying this product cause it dries out after a bit
This is actually a pretty good everyday makeup! It's light enough to wear daily but enough to give yourself a good foundation! Sometimes I wear this alone with some bronzer and blush and it looks great.
I've just started wearing foundation more regularly, and still feel pretty new to what products work best for my skin. I've always been concerned with making sure my face makeup looks as natural as possible, especially because of my freckles and having an oily t-zone. I didn't want to cover up my skin (and freckles) completely, and needed something that would last all day on my skin and not look too shiny OR too matte and unnatural.
So, after reading up a bit about Nearly Naked foundation, it seemed like a good product to try out. It's supposed to be light, easy to blend and not cakey or greasy. I definitely agree with all of that - the liquid is nice and light, not too watery but not thick either. It blends very well, and gives you enough time to do so before it dries down. You can apply this more generously and get really full coverage right off the bat, but I prefer to use a tiny bit and lightly pat it on with my fingertips, using more in certain areas. I find that it looks way more natural and beautiful that way, and you only end up using a tiny bit of product.
Because of my complexion, this does start to look shinier throughout the day, and my face (more specifically my nose and forehead) definitely benefits from a little blotting and maybe a touch up or some powder, after a few hours of wearing this. But it's very manageable, and I'm still trying out different primers so that probably has an affect.
I like the way that this feels on my skin - it's very light, and basically not noticeable at all, which is great. Plus it washes off easily, and hasn't caused any issues with my skin ( again, I use this with primer so that might make a difference).
The way my skin looks with this on differs from natural light to artificial / indoor lights. I really prefer the way it looks inside; for some reason it looks more powdery and noticeable in sunlight. That makes me think that this will be perfect for fall and winter, but might not be something I use too often in the spring and summer.
There are 16 shades to choose from, which is great (although I'm terrible at matching my skin tone to products, and definitely had to ask for help in the store when choosing which one of these to buy!) I paid $14.99 at Shopper's which is more expensive than some places, but I feel like I got a decent product AND this will last me quite a while.
*I read that the US and other versions of Nearly Naked foundation have SPF in them, but there is no mention of that on Revlon.ca or any of the bottles of that I have, so maybe the Canadian ones don't. I would definitely prefer it to have SPF than not, so that's a small disappointment, but it's still a great product!
This is okay but it's nothing special. I have combination skin: sensitive and dehydrated. Plus my whole entire face can get dry sometimes even though i have combination skin. Oil is not a big problem for me. I don't wear this everyday, because i don't wear makeup everyday. But if i did. i think it would break me out because of my sensitive skin. But i only wear it 2-3 times a week and it doesn't break me out. It makes my skin look nice and dewy. Coverage is light to medium. If you have blemishes and spots or scars on your face you want to cover up. you might want to follow up with a concealer. Overall I liked it. But i f i ran out i wouldn't immediately run out to buy it again.
I was so disappointed with this product. I was so excited for it and when I put it on my light/fair skin it went on nice and looked great....until an hour later I looked in the mirror and the colour had totally changed! I was orange!!
So I needed a new summer foundation that was light enough for daily wear, and after Alexandra mentioned this one in her spring staff picks I decided to try it out. And I'm not disappointed! This foundation goes on very light and sheer, and it blends nicely with my skin. It doesn't look cakey or fake, and I really like how it brightens my skin. It's got medium to light coverage, but because it's so sheer it layers nicely. I like that it's not greasy and doesn't make me look oily throughout the day. I bought this from Shoppers for 14.99, and it came with the pressed powder compact as well, which I thought was a really good deal. There are quite a few shades to choose from, I got Medium Beige, and it blends nicely into my skin tone. I'm not crazy about the top of the container, which is just a big opening, because the product is so runny so getting the right amount out is kind of hard. I apply it with my fingers though, so if you're using a sponge or a brush it will probably be easier. Overall a really good light foundation, would definitely recommend it.
Love this foundation!! you can apply it with your fingers, a brush, or beautyblender-type sponge. It can go on very sheer, or you could build it up for more coverage. It looks very natural, and it is a great price. There is a good shade variety, totally worth checking out
Okay, so I bought this foundation along with two others because I wanted to try something that was light enough, covered enough, but didn't feel cakey or look like a doll. I think the liquid is not bad, but the bottle top makes it seem worse than it is, simply because too much comes out. I started using a brush to dip in it so I can smooth the make-up on and not have a whole lot spill out. The coverage was mediocre, but honestly, that worked for me, because my skin is so thin and blemishes come easily, I wanted something that highlighted enough and covered enough. It was definitely not cakey which was also good.
Now, if you want this make-up for nights or for photos then I suggest getting the PhotoReady make-up by Revlon as well. If you want something light for everyday dewiness, then this is the product for you!
