MAYBELLINEGreen Edition Superdrop Tinted Oil Base Makeup, Adjustable Natural Coverage Foundation Formulated With Jojoba & Marula Oil, 10, 1 Count

I truly love this foundation oil. It is exactly as I hoped it would be. A light nature coverage. I am 64 and feeling it. This does not crease or emphasize lines or wrinkles. A soft look and feel. Not oily or shiney just very smoothing. The color I chose 35 is perfect it gives me some color and glow. Very happy because some of the reviews had me worried. What a great price. Packaged well and the top was secure with seal.

Please never stop making this! It is the perfect consistency for sheer color! Here's how I use it: I first apply whatever serum I'm using, like vitamin c, then moisturizer, then, because I hate how every sunscreen I've tried pills up in white flakes, and the tinted ones are so thick and greasy - even those that call themselves 'tinted moisturizers with sunscreen', and leave me looking like I'm wearing an oily tan mask, what I do instead is pump a bit of Neutrogena sheer sunscreen (which is a lie, it will pill white too, but this make-up fixes it!) into my hand and then add a few drops of this Maybelline Green Edition into it and mix it on my fingertips and apply to my face and voila! I get a nice sheer glow that's not too oily, but not drying either, feels breathable, still shows my freckles and enough skin tone that it doesn't look unnatural under my ponytail, and I have sun protection to boot that doesn't look like Elmer's glue dried on my face! I never see this advertised, and the price is so reasonable, and I like it so much I worry that it will be discontinued because that's what usually happens to really good products!!!

After doing my due diligence with researching tinted facial serum, I decided to order these Maybelline products in 30 and 50. When 30 arrived, the white top was smudged with product and wasn't wrapped. 50 arrived with a seal at the topper. I tried 30 first off on a freshly cleaned and dried face. Product is thick as foundation, so I went sparingly. After about fifteen minutes my skin became itchy, so I washed it off and used my usual moisturizer. I was very uncomfortable throughout the day into bedtime. When 50 arrived, I gave it a shot thinking 30 had probably been opened and contaminated. No. Same reaction, itchy red rash. I really wanted to like this product, but, alas! It is not for me. I'm 64 and have taken care of my skin all my life, and have minimal wrinkles. So, my search continues. I am returning product.

First, if you like the first foundation Kosas released, their Tinted Oil product, you will like this! (Not talking about the newer one released in early 2022.) They are so similar. I have the Kosas and used it the next day after trying this Maybelline to compare and I feel like they are very close dupes. Personally, I don’t love these dry oil foundations. I have dry skin, so you’d think this type of product would work for me, but nope! It’s lightweight and lasts an average day with minimal fading. And it fades gracefully when it does start to wear down. It feels nice going on, looks dewy for the first few minutes like you’d imagine, then it transforms and sets and ends up clinging to EVERY dry patch, especially any flaky areas that normal liquid foundations smooth over. And because this is a tinted oil, it doesn’t sit well over my normal daily skincare. I’ve had this for over a week and have used it several times, the best being the days I use no other skincare except a facial oil as my moisturizer and my Paula’s Choice sunscreen. The coverage is sheer to light, which I like. The shade range is pretty poor, but somehow it adapts slightly when you start working it into your skin. I know this formula could be really nice if my skin wasn’t in its current dry and flaky state, so I’ll try again this spring/summer. I normally like Maybelline foundations and I feel like this would be great for normal or even combo skin if you like lighter coverage.

I have never seen this line of foundation ever online or any drugstore til now. I purchased this because with my other heavier foundation, I was mixing in a drop of restoring face oil in with it to get a coverage that works with my skin type (im 42) With this since it is already mixed in oil I dont have to do that anymore. I use a wet sponge to apply this and it works out great. The coverage is just enough to even me out, its light to barely a medium, but it is buildable. I wasnt sure which color to get so I got 2. I would recommend this product, be sure to shake it before use because it does settle a bit.

Tried it on a whim and it is fantastic. I’m older and the oil based makeup helps keep my face hydrated, but it is not at all heavy or oily or greasy. I don’t know how they managed that, but they did. It is not expensive and allows for buildable coverage. My sister also has started using this makeup and loves it. If you are on the fence, I encourage you to get a bottle and try it.

It took me 3 tries to get it right but once I did it’s exactly what I was hoping for. It completely melted into my skin, covered most imperfections and looked completely natural. It only took about 3 drops so a little goes a long way. Just make sure you shake it really well every time and lightly moisturize first. It also seems to be a bit darker than the picture (the color I ordered is just a bit dark but probably fine for summer. I’ll be ordering a lighter shade too so I can have endless colors. It appears a bit oily at first but within 10 minutes had absorbed and my skin felt soft and smooth. The color lasted all day. Of course I’ll need to see how it does when it’s hot and humid. I definitely will be using this again.
