Product Description
A modern and improved
foundation with a blend of natural ingredients that offer lustrous
finish, smooth texture, and extra coverage for uneven skin complexions.
Mac's Studio Fix Fluid Foundation is one of the best product with UVA/UVB and SPF 15 for
excellent sun protection. Easy to carry product with wearable and smooth
texture to cover your imperfections with its flawless and fusion of
finish and vibrant colors, the shade I chose to test was NC15.
Packaging
Texture and Scent
Mac Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 foundation is a mixture of creamy and thick texture. It is merely important to maintain the consistency of solution otherwise the product will dramatically change its texture and it will look quite heavy after application, so shake it well before use.
Another
thing that I want to add here is the smell of the product. Though the
Mac products have their distinct smell, but this stuff smells terrible.
Some people may call it fragrance, but its funky smell bothered me to
toss the foundation out of my collection.
Finish and Coverage
Longevity and Staying Power
Mac
Foundation is known for its longevity and staying power. Even I could
easily carry this foundation for few hours without using a primer. The
shades and texture will stay longer if and only if they are not
frequently touched . After a few hours, the foundation may slightly lose
its tone but still the color will not come off which means that the
coverage of this product is still on the superior side.
Pros of Mac Foundation:
- The faux foundation does not feel heavy on the skin but offers a soft and smooth surface.
- The product has good staying power which means it can stay for longer hours without showing any signs of cracks.
- The foundation comes with a non-drying matte texture.
- Only a single coat (with little quantity) can provide full coverage to the skin.
Cons of Mac Foundation:
- The Glass bottle can be too annoying to pull out the foundation.
- You may need to purchase a separate airless pump or nozzle for ease of application.
- The product has a horrendous chemical-like smell.
- Not a travel-friendly product.
Conclusion
Mac
faux foundation comes with a balance of textures to cover uneven
blemishes and skin complexions. Though the product has its pros and cons
but the bonuses like the balance of texture and longer staying power
qualify this product to be a part of your everyday makeup.
