Whipped cream makes me think of a few things – strawberries (and cream), cakes, pies… hardly foundation. Does the idea of light fluffy white moist cream bring to mind a beige coloured product you’d apply to your face as opposed to shovelling it into your tummy? I thought not!<\/p>\n

But this is precisely what Revlon called their Colorstay Whipped Creme Makeup<\/strong> foundation.<\/p>\n

Like a cream, it comes in a heavy glass jar which is really unique I thought. It might be why I picked up a tub the first time I saw it at the display shelves all those months ago. It was just too different to pass up! Wait, was this launched last year? Or perhaps early in 2013? I can’t remember anymore, but I can tell you that I’ve owned this one for a while and that I surprisingly like it!<\/p>\n

If you’re a fan of full coverage foundation then I do believe this is one to check out. Whilst it gives full coverage, I wear it as a light-medium coverage foundation and it performs very well for me. Truly when it comes to pharmacy brand foundation, barring that error in judgement that was the Revlon Mousse foundation<\/a>, I’ve thus far had nothing but success with Revlon.<\/p>\n

The consistency of the product is quite unique. It isn’t a lotion nor a cream because it actually feels more dense, but it isn’t solid either. It actually feels (and looks!) like pudding.<\/p>\n

Bouncy, wobbly milk chocolate pudding. Yum! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

It might be what whipped creme may look like after it’s been allowed to settle. It takes on a rather gooey consistency, which you will recognise in this Revlon foundation. Due to the texture, I found that the formula settles overnight, so you literally wake up to a brand new tub of foundation every day!<\/p>\n

There is a white plastic stopper that you would be advised to keep. It just helps keep it cleaner because I found the product can be rather messy after a while. I cleaned it up a little for the photos but even then, you can see the thicker bits of foundation around the sides of the tub. Just clean it up occasionally and you’ll be fine.<\/p>\n

The biggest challenge you will face is how to apply the Revlon Whipped Creme Makeup foundation. I experimented with this many times over the months and I’ve only just got it – about a year later! LOL So don’t fret if you are facing problems wondering how to get it to work, here’s your answer \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

I found that because the texture is rather thick and the coverage so high, the best way for me to apply this foundation was with a flat topped brush. I use the Shiseido Perfect Foundation brush<\/a> but you can use anything similar. The reason I found this type of brush performing the best, is because of the flat head and design that allows you to disperse product more evenly over a wider area, while allowing you to increase coverage with just dabbing product on. If you use a brush like the Real Techniques Expert Face Brush<\/a>, I found that it was prone to be a bit more streaky and apply too heavy coverage. A flat brush just didn’t cut it, applying product far too thickly.<\/p>\n

So here’s how I apply the Revlon Whipped Creme Foundation and the slight variations you can have:-<\/p>\n
