Boots.com review: Used for years. Not the same product at all! Completely different texture and not the same colour!! Brilliant foundation before but sadly falling a long way short now!!! Disappointing!

Boots.com review: I like this product because it’s really light, I don’t like anything that’s too heavy on my skin. If you want it to cover any blemishes etc then I wouldn’t recommend but it gives a nice even coverage without leaving a greasy residue. I used it with the consealer and had no problems at all.

Boots.com review: Just awful since changing the ingredients and spf. Colour isn't the same and the foundation doesn't blend into the skin and give that lovely fresh finish like it used too. I hope they change it back!

Boots.com review: So disappointed. I used the old foundation and this one is so different. Purchased the same colour cool vanilla but it’s much lighter. I have dry skin and the old foundation was much easier to spread around my face - more of a light watery consistency. This one is a lot thicker and makes my skin feel tight and dry. Just awful. Wouldn’t recommend

Boots.com review: The new version of stay perfect is really disappointing:( I loved my old stay perfect and found a perfect shade for my skin. These new foundation shades differ from the old ones although the names stayed the same. The coverage is average but that was fine for me. The worst thing I noticed is that the color darkens on the skin after some time and it became orange inside the bottle too! I'm not sure if that's the reaction with the air or something? What a shame, I used to love No7 stay perfect:(

Boots.com review: I have used this foundation for years. Noticed reviews had deteriorated but shop told me no change in the product just the packaging. Well they have changed it. It just runs off your face. It used to last all day. I use face wipes and the slightest amount of foundation on the wipe at the end of the day. The wipe used to be covered in foundation and I never use a lot. I will never buy this again. Total waste of money and its not cheap either. They have upped the sun protection and in my opinion that what's done it. As another reviewer stated if I wanted higher protection I could put my own on first.

Boots.com review: I think this is a fab foundation for the price. I use cool beige which is perfect for me. I feel this foundation has been tested to its limits in the heat of summer. It has managed to stay on my skin and not streak. It has an SPF of 30 which is totally brilliant. I love that it feels light and it really does create a natural finish. I think it just really suits my skin and disguises my red chin.

Boots.com review: Love all the No7 range, this is a great foundation, great coverage

Boots.com review: I have to admit that initially I didn’t like this foundation. I’d been use to more coverage and a darker shade. However, thanks to the excellent beauty adviser, I carried on using it and now I love it! It looks much more natural than my old foundation. I use bronzing beads to add a little glow in the summer and I’ll go back to a blusher in winter. I know a lot (including myself) didn’t initially like the changes to the No7 range but I’ve realised, for me, it was time for a change and I’m glad I did it.

Boots.com review: Following the recent Beautifully Matte foundation fiasco, I have been trying to find an alternative. I have combination skin, prone to acne and used to use the old formula Cool Ivory happily for many years. In case it helps anyone else, the Stay Perfect is an OK alternative in the same shade. It's a nice texture, easy to apply with no streaking or patchiness (and it has a pump). My only complaint is that it is quite a light coverage, so not as good for building on bad skin days, it sits in creases quite badly and it doesn't stay matte for long, even with powder over the top, so I'm not sure how the Stay Perfect claim is validated. I have only put yes to recommending to a friend as it will do when there's no alternative but I am now using a different brand as I have lost faith in Boots No7. A shame as I have been happy with them for nearly 40 years!
