Stila Stay All Day Foundation & Concealer Review and Photos.

The latest addition to the Stila Stay All Day franchise is this breakthrough HD foundation named Stay All Day Foundation & Concealer. The foundation provides a matte, flawless finish to the skin, and it lasts all day without ever feeling heavy on the skin.

I have tried this new beauty a few times now and am happy to report that I am thrilled with how the foundation looks on my skin and lasts all day. The oil free formula glides on effortlessly and immediately minimizes imperfections with it's build able, yet breathable coverage. After a few re-checks ain the mirror and never needing a touch-up, I can attest that it is true to the Stay All Day name. The foundation looked beautiful on my skin seven and eight hours after applying. The bottle comes with a built-in spatula and even includes a foundation brush. The spatula is great for applying it to the back of the hand and then dipping the brush in it, to then apply to the face just like the pros do.

Notice the handy concealer right in the cap of the packaging. I love that, plus the little mirror in the cap to really get a close up look at what needs covering. The sample I tried was too dark, and the concealer was much darker than I could even get away with wearing. I did swatch it on my hand though, and it was nice and creamy, and had a nice amount of coverage to it.

All in all, I really like this foundation and plan to wear it, so I will be shopping for a better shade. I won't have a problem finding one better suited to my skin tone, as there are 16 shades available.

Stila Stay All Day Foundation & Concealer sells for $44 and is available now at stilacosmetics.com (though I can NEVER get on their site!) and Sephora.

Fall 2012: Stila Cosmetics.

Stila recently launched some new products as part of their fall collection. Not only did they launch new products, they branded a new tagline, "Makeup your own rules". Have you seen the new ads?

The product news for Stila this fall is that they have expanded their best-selling Stay All Day franchise. The line-up now now includes a Foundation & Concealer duo that is said to last all day, plus new shades in Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick and Stay All Day Liquid Eyeliner. 

The Stay All Day Foundation and Concealer comes in 16 shades to help a variety of skin tones. I just got my hands on one and am taking it for a test. Look for my review and photos of this new foundation and concealer later today.

Take a look at the rest of the Stila fall 2012 products:
