This foundation is AWESOME on my skin!

The first high end foundation I have tried and I absolutely LOVE it. I went to the MAC counter in Kirks and was colour matched by one of the loveliest ladies. Needless to say I brought it and have been loving it ever since. It really does what it says it does and is buildable if you want more coverage. I do need to set this with a powder if I am wanting full cover all day. I use the Mineralize skin finish natural and don't need to touch up at all.

Tips: Apply a small amount to start off with, as a little goes a long way. This foundation is buildable so can be done a few times if needed.

YES YES YES

This is the best foundation by far!! It has such a full coverage it covers up all of my spots. I first started using this just for night time wear only and then I fell in love and its my all day everyday foundation. using this with the studio fix powder will leave your skin looking flawless.

Tips: Use this with studio fix powder and Mac pep n prime primer and it will look amazing :)

Love it!

I love this foundation! It seriously does not budge off your face! Its a great full coverage foundation. The smell of it is a little weird- comparable to the Revlon color stay smell. I don't think i would ever pay full retail price for it however and always get mine from the mac online store in America as its waaaay cheaper. If i know i have a long day ahead of me and need my makeup to last all day or night i reach for this every time.

Tips: The only downside is you have to pay extra for a pump but this is worthwhile as its a very thick consistency formula.

great stuff!

This is the best foundation I have ever used! I have tried others but none have compared with this one! The coverage is amazing. For daily use i only use the tiniest bit but the foundation is easy buildable so if you need more coverage you can just add more. Each bottle lasts about a year for me. I don't personally find not having a pump a bad thing. I simply just dab my foundation brush on the top of the bottle and I get the perfect amount.

Tips: it can become orange of you use to much

Love this product!

To begin with the colour selection is amazing. I am very very pale (NW10) and this suits me perfectly. There are so many shades available. The consistency of this is to a thick liquid which is no surprise given that the foundation is medium to high coverage. The packaging is so good, comes in standard 30 ml bottom which is sturdy and not overly sized. You can also purchase a pump which prevents me from wasting product. I have combo skin and this helps to keep away oils on my t zone. It will last all day and sometimes will require a touch up depending on what I have been doing. The price is 60 which for some is expensive but I love it so much so it's worth it.

Tips: Make sure to exfoliate regularly as this is a matte foundation and will hold on to skin. Works best with primer. Also take your time to blend it in properly.

Love love love!

This product really does live up to its hype. This is my go to foundation for nearly all occasions as with one layer everything is covered and it isnt as thick as I expected it to be. It is easily buildable and two layers gives a high coverage look. My favorite primer to use under neath this is the M.A.C Strobe creame as it lasts all day and has the most flawless finish. Definetly worth its price and i find that one bottle lasts me around a year, i have now repurchased this product for the second and will keep on repurchasing as i could not live with out it!

Tips: looks best when buffed out with a flat top brush or a makeup sponge.

Love!!

I use MAC studio fix foundation daily now as I find no other foundation gives me good enough coverage like this does! I use NW20 (I'm quite fair and this seems to be the most common colour) however I could probably go down a colour but I like to have some colour in my face. I usually set with one of the powders too and that gives the best results

Tips: For best results use a MAC primer- I use the colour correcting CC primer and set with a MAC powder- I'm currently using the mineralize in a medium and its great!

Overrated

This used to be my go to foundation, I'm not really sure what happened but it just doesn't do what it used to. I find it oxidises really easily and wear off unevenly even with primer and powder as a base. A bit disappointed really considering the price. My third and final bottle I'll be buying.

Hiya - I have found that studiofix oxidises when combined with oily/greasy moisturisers! if you changed moisturisers recently that might be what is causing the product to separate and oxidise on your face :)
