MAC Studio Fix Foundation Fluid SPF 15 Review

I have tried several foundations but I always come back to my MAC studio fix. I find it works really well with my sensitive skin and it lasts all day/night! It is a rather expensive foundation, but you only need a little bit to last your day/night so totally worth the buy. I also love how they have an extensive range of shades, my summer shade definitely differs to winter so it's great that you can pick from their many shades to suit each season.

beautiful product. stays put all day, great on hot humid days! worth the price..... all this providing your a pink skin toned person. the NW range is great! the NC range mmmm not a big fan. because im a neutral to warm skin toned person i found it really hard to colour match. if i wear a light layer of the NW then warm my skin up with alot of golden bronzer im good to go, however it takes a while!

I really love these foundations. I love the consistency and I find them easy to blend, but there isn't a shade that matches my skin tone. The palest yellow based shade is far too dark for me, which is really disappointing, as I would love to make this my holy grail foundation.

When I went into Mac to buy a foundation, I wasn't expecting Studio Fix to have the amount of coverage that it does. I find this foundation slightly too heavy to wear on a day to day basis and I do have to really buff it out to make it all blend in. However, I love this foundation for nights out and occasions where I want my skin to look flawless and well covered.

i love this foundation for the way it stays on all day.my only concern is that you have to blend it in fast before it sets.i have fine lines under my eyes and i can not put it under my eye area.i use a beauty blender to apply it in small dots over my face,i blend it in and place a liquid concealer under my eye area instead of this foundation.it sets into my fine lines under my eyes if i use this foundation there.i don't like the glass bottle but the product does stay on all day.

Studio fix was my first ever high-end foundation and it was the only brand that I knew at the time that would have a suitable shade for my skin colour. I really liked the formula that this foundation had, as it didn't feel too cakey at all. The coverage was light-medium coverage although it didn't hide everything, I was glad that it was able to bring out a natural look. Although it was great, I found that it brought out the oils in my face which made it shiny throughout the day, which I hated. Also found that it caused flashbacks for me due to its pH. I used it until the bottle was finished because I didn't want to throw my money away just like that.

I used this for a couple of years. When I was younger I really liked a full coverage near matte look.. This Is a fantastic product if you like a very heavy coverage, but I feel like the colours just don't match for every skin type which was disappointing when you spend so much on one bottle. Im quite fair but definitely not the lightest shade and this was always very orange on my skin. I found this very drying on my skin, MAC products tend to upset my sensitive skin, make my eyes water and give me drying around the nose/soreness. I have since moved onto other products as although I do still very much like nice coverage to cover general imperfections this is just WAY too heavy and cakey. I have switched to Revlon photo ready in nude 200 and Max Factor CC cream in the lightest shade, I tend to mix them both together for the perfect colour for my skin. This MAC foundation would probably be a bit easier to wear with a few drops of Estee Lauder illuminating serum!

A really great full coverage foundation, especially for night time. I have quite oily skin and it stays on perfectly. Only reason I would not recommend for a day time foundation is because I found using it that often that it would react with my skin, I do have quite sensitive skin however. I also prefer lighter coverage for day time. But definately better than other liquid foundations at reducing oil and maintaining coverage throughout the night

I've been really keen to try Studio Fix but hate the strong paint(?) smell... I really don't like a lot of fragrance or scent to my foundations. I felt like the colour was very orange too, but maybe I was matched wrong. My skin did get quite oily with this and it wasn't as long lasting as I wanted.

This is a great foundation when its applied right. I found it to work best with a foundation brush, a tonne of buffing and a bit of patience. It makes my skin look so smooth and flawless and I really like the matte finish. It can look a bit cakey if youre not careful but once youve got the hang of it its fine.
