Hayya Lovely's. This is another foundation review, as some of you know I'm a total foundation hoarder Today's review is on my all time favorite foundation called MAC Studio Fix Fluid. I also have the powder called Studio Fix Plus Foundation which I will be doing a review on very soon.
MAC Says
"A modern foundation that combines a natural matte finish and
medium-buildable coverage with broad spectrum UVA/UVB SPF 15. Comfortable and
long-wearing: lasts for up to eight hours. Applies smoothly, builds coverage
quickly and easily. Contains specially treated micronized pigments and
soft-focus powders for a super-smooth look that helps minimize the appearance
of imperfections. Absorbs and disperses oil. Contains special skin-conditioning
ingredients. Oil free."
Details
Available- all MAC cosmetics are online
Price- £20.50 Not too bad. Perfect, actually
Coverage- Medium to full coverage
Consistency- Quite thick but easy to work with
First Thoughts
I can't actully remember what my first thoughts were as this is my 3rd bottle of this, so I guess I liked it a lot. I did stop using it for a whole year as I thought it looked too dark on my skin but I have now found a great way to apply it so it matches perfect. I use my hands to apply instead of a brush and it works wonders!
What I Love
This foundation has more of a thick texture to it which I really like. This foundation is amazing for oily skin, which I have, as it has a matte finish. The coverage is my fullest, so if you don't want a full coverage this foundation is really not for you. This foundation is best applied with your hands as it gives a more natural air brushed look and gives a nice even effect. NC15 is the perfect colour for my skin tone!
What I Do Not Like
This foundation has a painty type of smell which doesn't bother me, but I know it bothers some people. It also sets slightly darker if you apply it with a brush, that's why I like to use my hands as when applied this way NC15 is perfect, which I dont find much.
Rating
I have to give this foundation a A+ as I always seem to go back to it. I like it better now than ever before!
Have you tried this foundation or any other MAC foundation? If so let me know what you think
