I’m wearing Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation in 1C0 Shell here.We put the MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation with SPF 15 to the test after receiving a complimentary sample from the brand.

The above photo really doesn’t do it justice as a lot of the shine doesn’t show up, but you can see that compared to my usual base makeup look (below), it’s not great! I had quite a few spots at the time of the below photo too, yet my skin still looks better than in the Mac Studio Fix foundation. Strangely, despite it being a really thick layer, it still showed up a lot of my imperfections and dark under-eye circles too! My Usual Foundation (Estee Lauder Double Wear) Those flat foundation brushes do kind of trowel it on!īut I looked awful – like a greasy, shiny mess! If that’s how Mac Studio Fix foundation looked on me after less than 2 hours, I dread to think what I’d look like at the end of a full day. Everything from my sunglasses to my phone came away from my face covered in the stuff! I would imagine some of it has to do with how much product was used. You could literally see dents/marks in the coverage wherever I touched my face. The foundation was practically melting off my face! It looked so oily and shiny, yet somehow also cakey at the same time. It wasn’t super-warm, just normal temperatures. But this stuff? Yuck! All I’d done after the shop was get a quick snack and take a short taxi ride home. Well, an hour later, when I got home, I was literally ITCHING to get the stuff off my face! Bear in mind I love makeup and wear quite a lot, so I barely notice the feeling of it on my face.

It was a great colour match (NC13 apparently) and looked fairly nice, so off I popped to enjoy the rest of my day. Now I’m sure she knows what she’s doing 100x better than me, as I believe most of the Mac girls are trained makeup artists? But I was surprised to see her using an old-style foundation brush (you know those flat, paint brush type ones)? Anyway, she popped it on whilst I busied myself trying not to make awkward eye contact while she was 2 inches from my face! ? She set it with the powder and I had a quick look in the mirror in store. She thought the Mac Studio Fix foundation would be the best suited to me, so down I sat for her to put it on for me. I asked the girl what their most matte foundation was, and she said they didn’t really do matte foundations (surprise number 1!) Surely I can’t be the only person who wants a matte foundation? I think it’s due to having oily/combination skin – the dewy foundations are a huge no for me (unless you dig the hot mess look!) But anyway, she advised that they tend to use their Studio Fix powder over any of the foundations to achieve a more matte finish – fair enough. Shockingly for a beauty blogger, I’ve never once tried a Mac foundation, so I thought I’d take the chance! Hi guys! I don’t usually write such short, informal posts but I kind of felt like sharing this with you (and finding out if I’m the only one who feels this way about Mac Studio Fix foundation!) I had a rare ok-health day last weekend and popped into Mac for something (Soar lipliner and Brave lippie – I’ll share soon!) The Mac girl asked if I wanted to try anything else on.
