Maybelline Fit Me Shine-Free + Balance Foundation Stick, Multi-Use Face Makeup and Contour Stick For Natural, Matte Coverage, Ivory, 1 Count

I can’t see many downsides to this foundation other than it doesn’t seem to be a full coverage. It is a bit more of a lighter coverage, which is what I was looking for. I am a 40 something year-old woman, and obviously my skin has been changing throughout the years. I was using a leading brand of mineral make up for a super long time. I still do sometimes, but I also think it can tend to look a little bit overdone and cakey, especially if you put too much on accident. No amount of blending will help that situation. It also takes slightly more time to open the container (containers if you are using more than one color) and use the brush and do all the things. Let’s not forget that it can be very messy as well.With this cream foundation stick, I am able to just apply it to my face in several points and I use my fingers to blend it in. I go over it with a slightly damp make up sponge for a more consistent finish. Since I now have oily skin in certain areas, I will also put a little bit of powder to set it. It is very easy and fast for me to apply this in the morning and throw on some mascara, even if I wasn’t planning on wearing makeup at all. It makes me feel like I am prepared in case I wanted to go out and about. I will also do this without make up, but it helps to keep me more motivated throughout the day. The other thing I like about this make up is the ability to blend any colors you need in order to match your skin tone. I originally bought one that was too light for me, even in the winter, and then I bought the next one up in the lineup and it helps me to blend it all together for the perfect color match. I dare say that I may actually need to go one darker even if I get a little bit of a tan in the summer. But the ability to mix and match all of these colors without having to have several bottles of open foundation, etc is amazing. Also the finish feels very natural and not overdone. I think you might be hard-pressed to tell that a person has this on if applied correct correctly.I like to minimize options and inconvenience in my life because my brain sometimes gets overwhelmed. I find that this product, and others like it, allow me to be able to feel put together quick and easy and it looks great too!

Loved it so much that I bought two more. In the past I've paid for more expensive products, which always made me look older and they were cakey, not this one. Highly recommend for great light coverage.

Mi tío lo usa porque tiene vitiligo y es el único que le va bien

I've been using this for a while now, and overall, I'm quite impressed! I have combination skin, and this foundation does a great job at keeping my T-zone shine-free while giving my skin a natural, matte finish. The stick format is super convenient for quick touch-ups on the go, and it blends easily with both a brush and my fingers. I also love how lightweight it feels—it's like I’m not wearing foundation at all!The coverage is buildable, which is perfect for days when I want a light, everyday look and for when I need a bit more coverage for an evening out. My only minor gripe is that it doesn't last all day on its own. I find that setting it with a bit of powder helps extend its wear. Also, if you have dry patches, it might emphasize them, so I recommend moisturizing well beforehand.Overall, this foundation is a fantastic choice for those with normal to combination skin looking for a portable and easy-to-use product. I would definitely purchase it again!

I like the duo, blends well. Still testing for long term wear

Maybe my fault, since they do have a camera function to match skin color to the foundation. Other similar brands go for $50 and more, so I might continue experimenting with Maybelline .

I really like this product and always found it in the local store... but not anymore. I'm glad I found it here!

I love this item. I usually get 4 and it lasts about a year. Quick and easy to apply. Matches my ivory skin perfectly.
