What I Didn’t Like: I’ll admit I was completely overwhelmed trying to find the colour to match my complexion, as it’s difficult trying to colour match online. After much deliberation, I ended up opting for shade C3, and I still don’t think I got it right. Naturally, this a problem that’s currently being faced by many beauty brands, as there are significantly fewer opportunities for potential customers to get hands-on with the product via in-store testers, something I consider critical when looking for new base products.
Had we been living in “normal” times right now, I’d have preferred to make my way to either Superdrug or Boots, both of which are Revolution stockists, to see the colour spectrum first-hand. I would then handily top up by way of my regular ASOS orders. However, this is where the price, once again, proves critical. I can’t tell you how much money I’ve spent on beauty products over the years that have wound up being underwhelming. £5 isn’t to be scrimped at by any means, but its affordable price tag, in my eyes, makes it less of a gamble.
