NYX Can't Stop Won't Stop Foundation - Classic Tan: Review and Swatches

Hi Beauties!

NYX Cosmetics has just launched a brand new foundation. The Can’t Stop Won’t Stop foundation provides full matte coverage and is available in 45 shades. It’s great that more and more beauty brands are creating inclusive shades for all skin tones. NYX has worked with several influencers including Alissa Ashley to ensure they develop a wide range of shades. The foundation is waterproof and promises to stay true for up to 24 hours. It is non-comedogenic and suitable for normal, oily, combination, and sensitive skin types. The Can’t Stop Won’t Stop foundation retails for $18 CAD and $15 USD.

The foundation comes in a square bottle with a pump which makes for easy application. I was colour matched by one of their makeup artists to the shade Classic Tan and it’s the perfect match. It’s a tan shade with pink undertones. Their website has pictures and list the undertones for each shade (see here). The formula is very mattifying, almost too dry for me. I think it would be good for combination - oily skin. It hides my marks however emphasizes my texture. I actually broke out on my chin area after trying it. It has a good consistency and isn’t too runny. However, it dries really fast to a powdered finish which makes it hard to blend. I personally prefer more dewy foundations. You definitely need a hydrating moisturizer and primer.
