Revlon ColorStay Pressed Powder Face Makeup, Longwearing, Fragrance-Free, Noncomedogenic, 830 Light Medium, 0.3 oz

Finally, a powder that lets me pretend “I woke up like this.”
If you’ve ever wanted to look matte enough to fry an egg on your face but still mysteriously human, this pressed powder is your new best friend. I opened it expecting the usual puff of dust and disappointment, but no — this compact announced itself like a tiny, chalky angel descending from the heavens.Coverage:Somehow manages to mask my pores, my regrets, and the evidence of the three hours of sleep I definitely did not get. It’s basically Instagram’s “Paris” filter but in real life and without the existential dread.Texture:Soft, smooth, and only slightly reminiscent of the craft-store talc I used in middle school plays. But hey — nostalgia is in.Longevity:Stays on through sweat, tears, and the moment I realized I’ve been walking around for two hours with a piece of hair stuck to my lip gloss. Unbothered. Immaculate. Judgmental.Shade Match:Shockingly decent. Didn’t turn me orange, gray, or ghostly — which is rare, considering most powders make me look like an underbaked sugar cookie.Bonus:The compact snaps shut with the confidence of a woman who has her life together, even if the rest of us do not.Overall:If you’re searching for a powder that says, “I’m flawless, but I’m also tired and doing my best,” this is the one. 10/10 would dramatically reapply in a public restroom mirror again.

Perfect
Perfect powder I never use can stay on face all day. I have another Givenchy powder I didn’t find what different between them. Specifically the price like almost free, love it

Solid Shine Control, Affordable
Revlon’s ColorStay pressed powder stands out as one of the dwindling affordable talc-based options, especially now that drugstore brands are switching over en masse to “clean” formulations that are predominantly mica. For those of us with oily skin, this industry shift has led to a real struggle in the search for a shine-eliminating pressed powder. While people with normal or dry skin who prefer to avoid an ultra-matte look might appreciate mica-based powders for their natural glow, for someone battling excess shine, “skin-like” often translates into a pearlescent finish that unfortunately emphasizes pores and wrinkles. This particular powder does include “synthetic mica” (synthetic fluorophlogopite), but thankfully it’s listed as one of the last ingredients in the formula. This placement helps prevent the powder from appearing chalky on the skin, which is a definite plus. Under both fluorescent (first photo) and natural (second photo) light, I don’t detect any noticeable glitter in this powder.The brand markets this powder with a claim of “lasts up to 16 hours,” which hasn’t aligned with my experience, particularly in terms of shine control. I typically start to see shine breakthrough and a reduction in coverage after about 2-3 hours of wear. While this might initially sound like a major product letdown, these results are fairly typical for most drugstore pressed powders I’ve tested. To manage shine that inevitably emerges, I recommend using blotting paper first, and then touching up with powder. Layering more powder directly over oily skin can easily lead to a caked-on appearance, which is something I think we’re all trying to avoid.Shade 290 Natural Ochre is a commendable option for light-medium complexions with a slightly yellowish undertone. It manages to be not too warm (leaning orange) and not too neutral/cool (beige-pink), which is a balance surprisingly hard to find in drugstore brands. Often, drugstore ranges include only a single pale yellow shade in their fair-light offerings (or label it as a “translucent” or “banana” shade), completely skip the light-medium range for yellow undertones, and then reintroduce “yellow” undertones again starting in the medium-tan range. Even then, these are frequently golden (olive) shades that are too deep for my light-medium complexion. Regarding application, the included puff is acceptable for quick touch-ups, but a fluffy brush is definitely preferable for building up sheer coverage in more diffused, even layers. To be clear, this powder isn’t going to magically erase significant skin texture or look flattering on flaky dry patches, nor will it replace a full-coverage liquid foundation or concealer for effectively covering blemishes. It also won’t substitute a dedicated “HD” silica finishing powder in providing intense pore-blurring and shine-control. However, if you’re seeking a travel-friendly pressed powder with a relatively smooth texture that offers light coverage without an overly metallic finish, then this Revlon ColorStay pressed powder is a solid and affordable choice.
