Super Stay Full Coverage Foundation

I use Maybelline Fit Me Matte & Poreless 128 (NC30 StudioFix) so I figured it would be a good match. This foundation is the "we know you are wearing makeup" foundation yet looks on the more natural side. This isnt cakey (applied with a damp sponge) or too thick. This did cover my acne marks. Used 2 pumps for my whole face. Dried down quickly and not tacky at all. I did set my face only because I run on the oily girl side. It has been 6 hours as of this review and it has not set into my fine lines or creased by my nose (which most foundations usually do for me) or my redness hasn't peaked through which at this point usually does. BUT it did oxidize. It doesn't pull orange on me but I do look slightly tanner than usual. I don't entirely dislike it but I don't love it. The next shade down is Classic Ivory from which I read is a Neutral undertone. I am a yellow undertone so I might just keep it to avoid the hassle of it not matching. Next time I wear this I will change my blush (Laura Geller Honeysuckle) to try to tone it down. Yes, i do love the I just got off the beach glowy skin but its still pretty gloomy out where i am & I like to see the slight flush of color on the cheeks. Overall, I personally feel this despite the oxidation I can work with this. It doesn't even feel like I have anything on my face. There is no mask feel which "full coverage" foundations usually feel like.

I had very high hopes for this foundation and after trying it out with a variety of primers and powders, I'm disappointed. I have sensitive skin that reacts to most foundation by over producing oil so I try to find something matte that won't dry out my skin too much. I think this is too creamy and not matte enough. Within 30-60 minutes, my face starts to get oily and caky. I frequently have to blot or powder and even so, it creates an oily mess on my face that isn't long wearing or transfer proof. When I use a very matte primer to begin with, I get emphasized texture around dry areas and coverage isn't always even. If I use a normal/moisturizing primer, I get smooth coverage and less texture but the foundation begins to grease up a little quicker. I'm very disappointed because I otherwise love the coverage and how easily it covers bright red blemishes without additional layers or even concealer. I just wish it help up and stayed nice looking without so much maintenance.
