I'm not an overly huge fan of this foundation. I have dry areas on my skin where the product clings to, or it doesn't blend easily into these areas. I also found around t-zone to be quite cakey when using this with a brush, so I have opted to apply these certain areas with my fingers or a sponge. Gives great coverage, but does not reduce the redness in my cheeks entirely. Would definitely recommend this for people with oily/normal skin. On a positive note, the colour range from MAC is excellent. This foundation is the perfect colour for me, and I've had trouble with other brands finding a suitable colour.

Tips: Use with a sponger or fingers with dry areas on your skin. Also, use a very hydrating moisturiser and primer.
Mac foundations have many shades to suit W or C skin types. I use nw20 so can only review that shade of this product. On me its full coverage and gives a nice matte finish, no orange tinge to be seen and blends flawlessly to my skin tone. Lasts hours when using a good skin primer, even on my oily areas.
Tips: Wear a primer for a longer more flawless effect
In summer, I wear NW15 however in winter I struggle to find foundations that are the exact right tone. NW13 is one of the only foundations I've found that suits my skin tone completely. This foundation is exactly as it is advertised, it is very full coverage and gives a true matte finish. Even with very oil skin, this will easily last a 12+ hour day, and then into the evening. You hardly need concealer with it as the coverage is that fabulous. It can sometimes feel a bit cakey, but only if you haven't blended it out properly. I use a flat-top Kabuki brush and it works great and looks flawless. I have acne scarring and blemishes on my skin and it covers it completely.
Tips: Pump the foundation onto the back of your hand and blow it so it sits flat, that way a flat-top brush can get an even coverage. It sets quickly on the face, so either start blending as soon as it is stippled on, or only apply it section by section. A silicone based primer works best in my experience. The Australis Primer works wonderfully with it.
This is the first mac product i had ever used , and i really liked it. I went into mac and had a lovely girl color match me and apply it for me. It gives excellent coverage and lasts really well , i use a flat top kabuki brush to apply and have even used my fingers also . I love that it doesn't feel too thick or heavy on my skin, i would defiantly recommend this to friends x
Tips: always apply primer before foundation for an even more flawless finish and longer lasting x
This MAC foundation is a perfect skin coverage, not too heavy and not too light, and lasts for hours! Beautiful matte like finish, not giving you that oily, shiny look that many foundations have the tenancy to do.
Tips: This producy is easily applied with fingers or a foundation brush. To further this look, apply the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural over top of the liquid foundation, then accentuate the upper cheek bones with the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish 'Soft And Gentle' shimmer powder for a flawless finish (:
MAC Studio Fix foundation provides great long lasting coverage. It goes on smoothly & feels hydrating. It is a thicker foundation but thats why it gives such good coverage that easily hides blemishes. Lasts all day!
Tips: Applies great using my MAC foundation brush. Works great when you also apply MAC flawless finishing powder - helps set it all into place! Highly recommend!
I truely believe that MAC foundation is worth the extra money spent on it. It provides full coverage and makes your skin look naturally flawless and feel great. It stays on for a long time and hides any imperfections.
Tips: A little goes a long way!
This is my go to foundation..I have used it for years now and still love it..it doesn't cake up and looks great on the skin. I like a good coverage foundation so this works great, I use it both for everyday and nights out.
MAC Studio Fix Foundation Fluid SPF 15 is an awesome foundation! Im not really a foundation kind of girl more of a bb cream girl but i love this for when i go out and want full coverage that will last for a long time. Usually ill wear it out clubbing and this bad boy lasts through the night great
i really enjoyed this product however it does need to be touched up throughout the day with a matte powder etc. if you have oily skin as it does let it seep through after half a day. apart from that it is a fantastic product :)
Tips: use a good primer and even use the powder before foundation technique to help with the staying power.
