I've been wearing MAC's Studio Fix Fluid for a very very long time. I've loved this stuff ever since I started wearing makeup years ago. This is MAC's most popular liquid foundation and it's been around for a very long time. I love that it's got medium to full coverage- when you wear this stuff, you really don't need to wear any concealer because this covers up everything. It evens out skintone perfectly and it blends out pretty nicely. The coverage is buildable so you can keep applying this stuff in smalls amounts until you've reached the amount of coverage you want. This foundation contains silicone so it pretty much has a built-in primer, and I feel that it really fills in/smoothes over flaws. An amazing thing about this foundation is that it photographs beautifully!!! It has a gorgeous matte finish but looks a little more dewy over the course of the day as your natural oils come out. A lot of people with acne-prone/sensitive skin hate this product because they claim that it makes them break out, but I've never experience any breakouts when wearing this foundation. It's oil-free and has an SPF of 15. Some people say that they don't like how this stuff smells but I really like the smell of it. MAC's website claims that it lasts for up to 8 hours. I agree to an extent- it really depends on your skin-type and how often you touch up, and stuff like that. MAC has an extensive amount of colors/shades of this foundation ranging from very very light to extremely dark. Anyone else use MAC's Studio Fix Fluid? Have you ever had any bad experiences with it? What do you love/hate about it the most? Let me know :]

MAC Studio Fix: Powder Plus Foundation
This has been my favorite powder foundation for YEARS now. I think I picked up my first compact of it when I was just in high school. I've had an on-and-off-again relationship with this product, but somehow, I always seem to go back to it. I love it so much, I tend to keep back-ups of it all over the place. I love it because you can use it very sheerly just to help even out your skin-tone just a little bit, you can use it to set your liquid or cream foundation, you can use it to blot your oily spots when you get shiny, you can use it to conveniently touch up throughout the day, and so much more :] I've tried many many many different powder foundations, from YSL to Shiseido to Chanel to Dior to Smashbox to Maybelline... and I must say, I love the quality and quantity of Studio Fix Powder Foundation compared to lots of the other ones I've tried. It has great coverage, if you put enough of it on, in conjunction with the right primer, can have you looking flawless<333 I don't make the cake-iness that it sometimes imparts. It sucks oil up very well... you don't have to worry about being shiny when you have this stuff sitting around :] It's easy to apply so it makes foundation application on-the-go very easy, and it's nowhere near as messy or high-maintenance as liquid foundation. It's one of MAC's most popular products and it comes in a myriad of shades sure to match anyone with skin. I like to apply it with a large fluffy powder brush to keep it from looking too thick but you can apply it with a sponge to get better coverage. Sooooo... Do you use MAC's Studio Fix Powder Foundation? Or do you find it to be to heavy or cakey? Tell me your thoughts :]
