FAQs
How do I choose the right shade for me?
The best way to choose your ideal shade is to swatch a small amount on your jawline, letting it dry for a few minutes to see its true color. Observe it in natural light. Shade 90 is a specific tone within the range, so consider your undertone and overall complexion for the best match.
Is this foundation suitable for oily skin?
Yes, the 'matte' aspect of this foundation makes it suitable for oily skin types, helping to control shine. For best results, use an oil-controlling primer beforehand and set with a light dusting of powder in your T-zone.
Can I build up the coverage with this foundation?
Absolutely. The formula allows for buildable coverage. Start with a thin layer for light to medium coverage, and then apply additional small amounts to areas where more concealment is desired, blending carefully.
Does this foundation feel heavy on the skin?
Despite providing coverage and long-lasting wear, this foundation is formulated to feel lightweight on the skin, contributing to its natural radiance claim. Proper application in thin layers also helps maintain a comfortable feel.
What is the best way to apply this foundation?
You can apply this foundation with a clean foundation brush, a damp makeup sponge, or your fingertips. Each method can provide a slightly different finish, so experiment to find what works best for your desired look and coverage.
Does this foundation oxidize or change color throughout the day?
While generally formulated to maintain its color, some foundations can experience slight oxidation depending on individual skin chemistry. It's recommended to test the shade on your skin and wear it for a few hours to observe how it settles with your unique skin oils.
Troubleshooting
Foundation appears patchy or uneven.
Ensure skin is properly moisturized and primed before application. Use a damp makeup sponge or a clean brush for blending, applying in thin layers. Avoid rubbing the product excessively.
Foundation looks too matte or lacks radiance.
Check your skin prep; ensure you're using a hydrating moisturizer. For more luminosity, mix a drop of liquid highlighter into your foundation before applying or use a radiant-finish primer.
Foundation doesn't last all day.
Apply a long-wear primer before foundation. After application, lightly set with a translucent setting powder, especially in oil-prone areas, and consider a setting spray to lock in your look.
Foundation settles into fine lines or creases.
Use less product in areas prone to creasing. Gently tap away any excess product from fine lines immediately after application and lightly set with a very fine powder.
The shade appears too light or too dark on my skin.
Shade matching is crucial. If the shade is slightly off, you can try mixing a small amount with a lighter or darker foundation you already own. For future purchases, consider testing shades directly on your jawline in natural light.

Before applying Maybelline New York Super Stay Lumi Matte Foundation, ensure your skin is prepped. Cleanse and moisturize your face thoroughly, and consider using a primer suitable for your skin type to create a smooth base and potentially extend wear. This foundation is designed to be compatible with most skincare routines and makeup products. For those with oily skin, use an oil-controlling primer and consider setting with powder. For drier skin types, ensure deep hydration before application to prevent the matte finish from clinging to dry patches. Store the foundation in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its consistency and efficacy. Always secure the cap tightly after each use to prevent drying out and contamination. Do not dilute the product with water or other substances, as this can affect its performance and shelf life.
