Revlon Photo Ready...the follow-up post

So. Went out yesterday to Walgreens to pick myself up some drug store foundation, which I haven't done in years. I admit, I did miss the ability to test the color before buying. However, I am pretty good at eye-balling what is the right color at this point (10 years of wearing foundation will do that). Anywho, got to Walgreens and their entire Revlon section was gone. GONE. The rest of their makeup section was pretty tragic as well...so alas I didn't get the 2 for 1 deal my friend LG did.

So, went across the street to Rite-Aid and thought I was going to be disappointed AGAIN until I found the foundation in a separate set-up in the front of the store.

So far, I'm very impressed! It has very even coverage. It's light and not greasy AND matches my skin (I chose Nude...which is the third up from the lightest). Picture attached...it's really not the best quality, but I just wanted to show that my face was not really shiny, as some people complained about.

Another thing. I've had it on for a few hours now, and other than my forehead it STILL looks good. Not bad at all for $14 foundation! By comparison, my Laura Mercier is $40 a pop. I plan to still use it for major functions (weddings, etc) because it seriously just lasts and lasts...but for everyday use I'm going to continue with the Revlon! For comparison, the picture below is me following a complimentary makeup session at Laura Mercier. Had on LOTS more makeup, and the makeup artist there also added some highlighter, so that's why my cheeks look slightly "brighter"..and it was taken with a normal camera, not my phone. :) But really, foundation really isn't much different, don't ya think??
End of day update: Still going pretty strong, and my face does not feel greasy. It has stayed on better than my tinted moisturizer, which is nice. Forehead shiny, but my forehead gets shiny 0.01 seconds after putting on makeup in the morning anyway!!
