NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Can't Stop Won't Stop Foundation Brush

This makeup is a well kept secret. The foundation is a total coverage while maintaining a light feel. I hope NYX will continue making it. I believe there is a strong market for a liquid foundation.

I may have written a bad review beneath a different shade and I'll talk about that in a minute. But what I like about this foundation so much is the texture. It is not a heavy, goopy foundation full of moisturizers. Its not sticky, or tacky. It is also not a sheer dewy foundation with next to no coverage that makes you glow. It also isnt a heavy opaque matte foundation thats so thick it adds texture.What it is is a highly pigmented, light feeling fluid that dries super fast. Excellent for oily skin. Full coverage, so full that I dont need concealer with it.But it adds no texture which is super important to me as I've returned so many for that reason. It has no sunscreen in it but most dont and I find adding any foundation over sunscreen adds texture but again, this one is so thin as far as lack of goop that it doesn't add texture. But it is so pigmented that it covers everything. For this reason, I would not only recommend it for oily skin, for which I believe it it the perfect makeup for but for all skin types, because if you have dry skin you are wearing lots of moisturizing products underneath it anyway.Many years ago Maybelline had a foundation called Great Wear.. This feels and looks exactly like it minus the smell which was sort of like nail polish. I have been trying to find a dupe for that foundation since I was a teenager. Never even came close. Until now. BTW this doesnt smell at all.As far as shades are concerned, I ran into some trouble at first because alabaster was perfect in undertone but a little too light and yet the next neutral shade on their wheel was 4 shades darker. I tried every shade in between and none worked and I felt like bottles had been mismarked with the wrong shades or something but I tried other foundations and kept thinking of this one cause none could compare. So I tried again and porcelain which is one shade up from alabaster is perfect now even though the first time I bought it it was too dark.So whatever went wrong there I'm glad it was fixed because this is the only foundation that really works for my oily skin without looking heavy and textured. I will say that I'd not use it on bare skin because it does dry fast and for me, bare republic gel sunscreen or neutrogena liquid sunscreen works perfectly under it. A primer works great under it and sunscreen or just a primer alone.

What can I say about NYX. I love, love, love NYX and feel you get quality makeup at a bargain price. The CVS by my house did not have the shade Fair so I ended up ordering it off of Amazon. Before appying this foundation I usually use a concealer. It seems to go on light but covers very well. I have a bit of a scar or spider vein on my cheek and although the color is so pale, it covers the mark exceptionally well. I used it today again and noticed that my skin looks almost doll-like, even, and poreless which can be hard to achieve with ghostly-white skin that has alot of red in it at times. I'm guessing it doesn't really have a smell because nothing follows my nose when I put it on. The color stays the same throughout the day with no oxidation. I took a shower when I had it on and sort of wiped my hands over my face and noticed it is a very different texture that has staying power. I hate to say "rubbery" because I don't want people to be scared of it but it is definitely not super liquidy once it's on or thin. I would also say it's not the easiest to remove but a good makeup remover could probably alleviate that. It doesn't smear or come off on stuff or feel sticky which I really love. Another thing, although the formula is extremely stay put, my skin is not dried out when I wear it.

For its price point, the NYX Can’t Stop Won’t Stop Foundation is a standout. It offers impressive coverage and longevity, making it suitable for daily wear or special occasions. However, individuals with dry skin should ensure proper skincare prep before application. Overall, it’s a fantastic option for those seeking a reliable, budget-friendly foundation.

This is my favorite foundation. It is the right consistency, blends well, the color is perfect and it gives a smooth, professional look. I highly recommend this makeup.

I used to use Revlon Colorstay foundation for years, but I feel like the coverage isn't as good as it used to be...so I was trying this as a new regular everyday foundation that was long-wear. The first experience using it was actually really good...it does seem to have better coverage and I feel like it does last a long time. However, that's until you use maybe 3/4 of the bottle. Then, you can no longer get product out! For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to get the lid with the squeeze top off to get into the bottle. I kid you not - I had to google it and watch YouTube videos. Let's be honest, should there be a NEED for YouTube videos on getting the top of a brand of makeup? Clearly I'm not the only one who had the issue, because there were several videos about it. So here's what to expect. You'll need to use something like a strong metal butterknife to wedge the top off. It will fly off and a piece of the top will break and you will fling foundation onto the wall of your bathroom. The crazy part is that it's not like this effort is just to reward yourself with the last scrape of makeup left in the bottle. I continued to use it for WEEKS like this, where I dip the top (which has a tube sticking down) into the liquid in the bottle and get it out. So shame on NYX. Either they have terrible testing and design of their packages, or they want you to waste at least a 1/4 of the bottle thinking it's done and hope you throw it away and buy a new one. Either way - pretty poor for a decent quality brand. If you're going to buy this, be warned!

The lid was off when I received the item! And the nozzle did not want to dispense the product. I usually order without issues. I’ve ordered multiple times but this time was when I came across the issue. I don’t have time to return the product.

Love this brush! The structure of the brush is very well made. The metal part of the brush is thick and sturdy!
