Most long-wear foundations lock on but feel heavy, dry and unforgiving. Revlon ColorStay Life-Proof Matte Foundation Stick delivers up to 24 hours of wear in a portable stick, with a soft matte finish that stays flexible and comfortable as you move through your day.

This formula is powered by reliable pigments suspended in a blend of dimethicone and phenyl trimethicone to create a smoothing, breathable film over skin. Titanium dioxide and UV filters help defend against everyday sun exposure, while antioxidant vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate) and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate support skin against environmental stress. Silica and crosspolymer spheres visibly blur uneven texture and shine.

The texture is a creamy solid that melts on contact, then settles to a weightless, life-proof matte. It grips where you need coverage yet blends out seamlessly without streaks, resisting creasing and patchiness. Once set, it stays put through workdays, commutes and evenings without demanding constant touch-ups.

Swipe directly onto skin and blend with fingers, a sponge or a brush for customised coverage. Use a light hand for quick everyday wear, or build in thin layers where more coverage is desired. The stick format makes it straightforward to refine features and refresh make-up on the go.

Long-wear film formers help pigment adhere evenly to skin for up to 24 hours.Silicone elastomers and crosspolymers create a smoothing, soft-focus veil that resists settling into lines.Balanced cream-to-matte base controls the look of shine without stripping moisture.Portable solid stick design maintains formula stability and precision application without pumps or compacts.

For a full ColorStay routine, pair this stick with a compatible primer to further smooth texture and extend wear, then set with a light dusting of ColorStay powder where extra shine control is needed. Finish with a ColorStay setting mist to lock in your look while maintaining a natural skin-like finish.

A portable, life-proof foundation stick that delivers flexible, soft-matte coverage and reliable 24-hour wear without the heaviness.

• Step 1. Prep freshly cleansed skin with your usual skincare and allow moisturiser and SPF to fully absorb.
• Step 2. Apply primer if desired, focusing on areas where make-up tends to fade or pores appear more visible.
• Step 3. Swipe the foundation stick directly onto the forehead, nose, cheeks and chin, adding extra where more coverage is needed.
• Step 4. Blend outwards using fingers for the most natural finish, or use a brush or damp sponge for a more polished look.
• Step 5. Build in thin layers over any areas that need additional coverage, allowing each layer to settle before adding more.
• Step 6. Set with a light dusting of powder on areas prone to shine, or leave as is for a softer matte effect.

Pro Tips

• Use a slightly heavier application where you want more definition and a lighter touch everywhere else for a natural dimension effect.
• For targeted touch-ups, tap the stick directly onto areas of redness or uneven tone, then blend just the edges.
• Warm the product on the back of your hand first in colder weather to enhance slip and blendability.
• Blot gently with a tissue before powder if you prefer a very refined matte finish that photographs smoothly.
