Boots.com review: I have bought two. Exactly matches my skin tone. Soft does no crease. I have been searching for years it was either too dark or too light but this is perfect

Boots.com review: I bought this only because the Stay Perfect compact foundation I have been using for years has been discontinued. The product does not give anywhere near the same amount of coverage. The compact was also handy to keep in my handbag. This product is too big and I wouldn’t trust the poorly fitting lid to stop the foundation leaking in my handbag. I purchase most of my make up from No7, but I’m going to have to look elsewhere for a new foundation. Such a shame.

Boots.com review: I was given a small sample of this to try because I didn’t want to take the risk after so many conflicting reviews. On applying it was fairly evident it was more of a light weight coverage with a somewhat drying effect. What I wasn’t expecting was for my skin to start feeling like it was stinging and a slight reddening of my skin. The shade was great but if a product that you apply to your face isn’t hypoallergenic I wonder what it’s doing on the shop floor to be honest. I thought I would add that I don’t completely understand why a previously popular product would be altered from an SPF 15 to a 30? Baffling. My moisturiser has an SPF and at the end of the day if I want sunscreen I’ll wear a sunscreen….you’d have to use an awful lot of it for it too be truly effective as a sun protection anyway.

Boots.com review: Bought this for years, it was the only foundation that worked with my sensitive and easily irritated skin, it used to stay on all day with good coverage. Sadly since they’ve changed the formula coverage is poor, it feels thin and oily, texture is horrible, slides off my face and rubs off on everything. Awful. No better coverage than from a cheap tinted moisturiser. So disappointing and a real waste of money. My skin looks greasy, patchy and more orange than before despite my matched colour supposedly not changing! Please change it back to the previous formula, this is a total waste of money.

Boots.com review: Have bought stay perfect foundation for a few years after a consultation and skin match.. I’d just like to point out , do people realise that their skin changes, colour, texture etc over time .. it might not just be the product!

Boots.com review: Unfortunately, this product is not a patch on the brilliant Stay Perfect Compact, which in their wisdom Boots have decided to discontinue, despite it (in my opinion) being one of their best ever foundations. The bottled formulation does not match my usual colour, feels chalky, is not great coverage and also accentuates any problem areas on my skin. Nothing else I've used (from any brand) has ever come close to the compact version of this. Was a creamy texture, quick and easy to apply, long lasting, gave good coverage, plus a flawless finish. Had so many compliments from people when wearing. Many of whom were annoyed to discover the lack of shades available. Do you ever read these reviews Boots? The Stay Perfect compact was a much loved No 7 product, so please reconsider your decision! Reinstate on your shelves and expand the range of shades available/provide refills to reduce on packaging.

Boots.com review: ....and further to my recent review, comparing the poor performance of the latest version of this foundation, in comparison to the flawless Stay Perfect Compact, why are Boots ignoring customers and changing much loved formulas and discontinuing classic products that people have loved and relied on for years, when due to the cost living crisis, many can't afford to waste money on the hunt for a new foundation? Please read your reviews before making these decisions!

Boots.com review: I love this foundation. I’ve tried so many over the years but the colour and texture is perfect. I use 2 pumps for the coverage level I like. It’s non-drying, and doesn’t make my skin look chalky at all- it looks so natural.

Boots.com review: This was my favourite foundation for years and was even my preferred when compared to other more expensive brands. Since the change in formula I am now unable to use it and have had to throw away a full bottle. Please return to the previous
