Revlon Nearly Naked review and comparison to Colorstay

Hi guys, today's post is a review of the new Revlon Nearly Naked foundation. I thought I would also compare it to the Revlon Colorstay foundation. I've been using the Nearly naked foundation for a few days now and I have to say I'm really liking it!

Colour
First the colour/shade, I'm very pale so I have the lightest shade in both which is Ivory. The Colorstay is a perfect match for me and very suitable for pale skin, I would say its the best foundation you can get for pale skin at the drugstore. The Nearly Naked foundation however appears to be a slightly darker colour, despite being in the same shade. However when applied to the skin it is still a perfect match, I'm not sure is it just looks different in the bottle or whether it just blends out nicely.

Consistency
The Colorstay is quite a thick consistency and gives and medium, but build able, coverage. The Nearly naked foundation is the complete opposite. It is a thin and quite liquidy consistency. Because of this it provides light to medium coverage depending on the amount you apply.

Staying power
From the name you can tell that the Colorstay has fantastic staying power, it wears really nicely and on my combination skin it doesn't get too shiny throughout the day. With the Nearly Naked foundation I wasn't expecting it to last well on my skin as most light foundations don't. However I was pleasantly surprised! It lasted beautifully on my skin and didn't get shiny throughout the day.

Overall I am really impressed with the Nearly Naked foundation and I love having both the Colorstay and the Nearly Naked foundation in my make up collection. The Colorstay is great when you want full coverage and, as it only has a low spf, it would be good for photos. The Nearly Naked is perfect for everyday, I think it will be great in summer as it has an spf of 20.
