"The Maybelline SuperStay Hybrid Powder Foundation is one of the very few foundations I've actually finished twice now. I only use this on top of a very very glowy or super hydrating base, but when I do, it gives that soft focus finish without looking heavy. I've already repurchased and as you can see, I have already hit pan on this. That pretty much tells you everything. I'm going to buy more. In fact, I think I'm going to buy two, one for the summer shade and one for the winter."

"The Maybelline SuperStay Hybrid Powder Foundation is one of the very few foundations I've actually finished twice now.

"When I pair this with my Maybelline SuperStay Hybrid Powder Foundation, it creates this hydrated glow underneath, which is really the only time I would use something like this, which actually has a matte finish. So it looks like this radiance is coming from within, and it's not just sitting on the surface."

"This goes on like a powder, so it sort of calms my hotness right down. And by that, I don't mean fabulous looking. I mean sweaty or shiny. But then it melts with the natural oils and it just gives this beautiful sheen. It gives this natural glowiness. And as you can see, I've hit pan on this thing, which basically never happens. So clearly, I need to pick up another one of these. This is in the color Jaw Rose and it is perfect."

"I think it's great, it's totally affordable and if you just get that balance right your skin looks great and it actually does last all day."

"I'm really not one to use a powder foundation these days because of my ever-increasing wrinkles because they can really be amplified by this type of product, however this is a match made in heaven. The finish is just so interesting, you know it doesn't look or feel super dry and it has this gorgeous luminosity to it."

"The Maybelline SuperStay Hybrid Powder Foundation won best powder foundation. [...] It's very very smooth. It has a [...] really beautiful, very smooth texture. I feel like the point of a powder foundation is to not use it on top of a liquid, so in order for me to really see if it's a good standalone product I need to use it alone."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Sunscreen filters

Sun protection is the best evidenced way to slow visible ageing, and the filters are what does the work. Mineral and chemical filters both protect when a product is applied thickly enough and often enough, which is where most people fall short rather than on the choice of filter.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
