Revlon® ColorStay™ - A Tragic Love Story

Hi everyone!

This time I'm not going to recommend you any product and just share with you my big disappointment from the new formula of Revlon ColorStay™ foundation. I've used this foundation for about five years or even more and I absolutely adored it. It became so famous and many women around the world enjoyed using this product. I saw many beauty gurus on YouTube talking about this foundation a lot. The only thing that people disliked about this foundation is that it doesn't have a pump. It used to come with just a glass pour bottle which has its own limitations; you have to deep your finger in and contaminate the product every day. So finally Revlon have listened to all of her fans and included a pump. The problem is that it's not the only change in the product and they actually have changed the whole formula. OH NO! I have to say that it's not the same product anymore, it's completely different now. Why do I say that? Let's see...

Hi everyone!

I did a little research on two very similar products with actually the same purpose - to protect us from sunscreen. At first, I thought that they are the same thing with different labels, but they don't. So, what's the deal with this product in general? This product gives your skin the optimal protection against the dangerous effects of the sun mainly incluced by UVB and UVA rays. It's really important to use this kind of products in the summer I think. So, what actually UVB and UVA rays do?

UVB - They stimulate tanning and are mainly responsible for damage.

UVA - They deeply penetrate the skin and can reach the dermis. UVA rays are more insidious because they are painless. They can accelerate skin aging and can cause sun intolerances (Polymorphous Light Eruption) and hyperpigmentations (pregnancy mask, brown spots).

UVA, as well as UVB, may cause invisible damage to skin cells DNA and can lead to skin cancers on the long term.

This facial liquid emulsion absorbed very quickly to the skin and doesn't keep your skin oily or shiny as the most sunscreen protecting products do. It perfectly matches to problematic or sensitive skin. It says that this product doesn't block the pores or cause to breakouts. So, what's the difference between these two products?
