Maybelline Super Stay Lumi Matte Foundation - 90

The best way to choose your ideal shade is to swatch a small amount on your jawline, letting it dry for a few minutes to see its true color. Observe it in natural light. Shade 90 is a specific tone within the range, so consider your undertone and overall complexion for the best match.

Yes, the 'matte' aspect of this foundation makes it suitable for oily skin types, helping to control shine. For best results, use an oil-controlling primer beforehand and set with a light dusting of powder in your T-zone.

Absolutely. The formula allows for buildable coverage. Start with a thin layer for light to medium coverage, and then apply additional small amounts to areas where more concealment is desired, blending carefully.

Despite providing coverage and long-lasting wear, this foundation is formulated to feel lightweight on the skin, contributing to its natural radiance claim. Proper application in thin layers also helps maintain a comfortable feel.

You can apply this foundation with a clean foundation brush, a damp makeup sponge, or your fingertips. Each method can provide a slightly different finish, so experiment to find what works best for your desired look and coverage.

While generally formulated to maintain its color, some foundations can experience slight oxidation depending on individual skin chemistry. It's recommended to test the shade on your skin and wear it for a few hours to observe how it settles with your unique skin oils.

Ensure skin is properly moisturized and primed before application. Use a damp makeup sponge or a clean brush for blending, applying in thin layers. Avoid rubbing the product excessively.

Check your skin prep; ensure you're using a hydrating moisturizer. For more luminosity, mix a drop of liquid highlighter into your foundation before applying or use a radiant-finish primer.

Apply a long-wear primer before foundation. After application, lightly set with a translucent setting powder, especially in oil-prone areas, and consider a setting spray to lock in your look.

Use less product in areas prone to creasing. Gently tap away any excess product from fine lines immediately after application and lightly set with a very fine powder.

Shade matching is crucial. If the shade is slightly off, you can try mixing a small amount with a lighter or darker foundation you already own. For future purchases, consider testing shades directly on your jawline in natural light.
