My favorite cosmetics are Revlon brand...
I have been using Revlon cosmetics for years and I really do like them, a lot. OK, I love them! I'll try other brands of cosmetics from time to time. Anywhere from the more expensive to the least expensive, or a mix and match using other brands of cosmetics, but I usually stick with Revlon.
In all honesty, they have really only disappointed me by discontinuing a favorite lipstick line in the past. With so many different types of lipstick and colors to choose from though, it was easy to find another favorite. Especially after I visited their website and actually chatted online with a representative about it(I was just so disappointed about not finding my favorite lipstick anymore!), she directed me to other substitutes to try in their new line of lipstick. In other similar situations of change, or shall I say "unexpected or even unwanted change", the Hubs always says "That's marketing for ya!" Oh well, things do change and so sometimes we must change with them. Like it, or not! But 'change' can be good...
I recently discovered a new type of makeup, Revlon ColorStay Aqua Mineral Makeup. Revlon's liquid makeup has always been a favorite, and I also like using the liquid to powder compact. I have tried another very popular brand of mineral makeup before, but really wasn't all that pleased with it. I sometimes use a combination of liquid and powder since I have combination skin. I noticed Revlon's mineral makeup and decided to give it a try.
This makeup surprised me when I first applied it. It felt wet and cool when I brushed the makeup on my face. I thought perhaps I had gotten the applicator brush wet somehow when I had placed it on my bathroom counter. I wiped the brush on a dry tissue then tried the application of makeup again, and same thing, it felt wet and cool on my face. I read the front and the word 'Aqua' on the label set in with me. I thought, "Oh I get it now...'Aqua!', as in water or wet." That's pretty cool, literally! The wet/cool feeling wore off shortly after applying the makeup. I liked the look and feel of the mineral makeup on my skin.

The applicator brush is attached to the top.
I really like this because it's convenient and on-the-ready for use.
"Colorstay Aqua™ Mineral Makeup delivers a burst of hydrating coconut water and an instant cooling sensation upon application. The result: your skin looks luminous and its texture smoother. With a shine-free formula that’s made with water, not oil, this lightweight powder gives you a fresh, flawless finish that lasts all day. Fragrance free and non-irritating. Provides medium coverage in 8 beautiful shades."
This makeup was priced at around twelve dollars, and I feel it is a good value and should last a while. One might think it a bit of a pricey risk with purchasing cosmetics, and then perhaps not liking them (that sure
can happen and haven't we all done that before?! Although most do offer a refund if unsatisfied), but
I was pleasantly surprised, and glad that I had bought it.
It's always nice to come across something that proves to be truly satisfying, and surprising, in a good way. can happen and haven't we all done that before?! Although most do offer a refund if unsatisfied), but

So when I do, I am happy to recommend it to others too.
I love my Revlon...
