I’ve tried the studio fix powder before and it was super light on my skin, and rarely left it feeling clogged up but that was when my I was younger and my skin was still developing.

So, after being recommended the MAC studio fix fluid, and having known so many people to have tried it, I wanted to give it a go and test it out. I rarely get a foundation without reading some kind of review/YouTube tutorial on it, so I can see how it looks on other people. Both of which are fab for my skin, but I wanted to try something new. From mineral powder foundation, to BB cream, to liquid foundation, every skin takes to foundation differently and I try to experiment as much as I can to see if there are better alternatives that suit my skin. At the moment I have been using Estée Lauder’s trusty double wear foundation in the shade cool bone and L’Oréal’s infallible matte foundation in the shade natural rose (see my post on budget beauty buys for a look at the latter). Its a bit too heavy for me personally as an everyday foundation just because i like something a little sheerer and lighter, however it is my new favourite foundation for times i want to look flawless and want my foundation to stay looking good.I’ve used so many different foundations to see what suits my skin best. The durability of this foundation is also impressive, it most defiantly will last the night and you don't start to lose coverage in areas. The finish is amazing, i think it looks flawless covering imperfections and pores i love how it looks.

Blending wise i find it takes a little bit of buffing it in, but it covers really well and has excellent coverage, i would agree that it is medium and its also really easy to add more to up the coverage to full if needed. Studio Fix is a fairly thick foundation i only require a couple of pumps to cover my entire face and neck which is great. I have no idea why they did it this way seems pretty backwards to me but i find it helps logic it out in your mind if you think of the N as being not instead of neautral, so = Not Cool for NC and Not Warm NW.Īnyway the NC is definitely right for me the yellow tones suit my skin perfectly and when I'm fake tanned this is the perfect match for me.

NW= neutral warm and is pink (cool) toned.

NC= neutral cool and is yellow (warm) toned.

For anyone needing a little help deciphering Macs shade labeling, I was also given a shade of NC15 to take away and test for days when I'm not fake tanned and i actually wasn't keen i think it washed me out and i think i would need a NC18 for a perfect match. I was matched to the shade NC20 which as you can see from the picture above is too dark for me but we decided on this shade as it would match me when I'm fake tanned for nights out which is what i would wear a more full cover foundation like Studio Fix for. I was a bit concerned the pump would empty foundation out everywhere in my makeup bag as it doesn't fit inside the lid but luckily you can twist it to lock it. The pump cost me an extra £4 on top of the £21.50 for the foundation, which is still cheaper than the £32 i pay for my Nars foundation.

I really hate this sort of packaging as i find having to tip the foundation out a hassle, Mac do sell individual foundation pumps so i bought one to make life easier for myself. I decided on Studio Fix as i wanted a long lasting foundation with good coverage and Studio Fix is described as being " A modern foundation that combines a natural matte finish and medium build-able coverage" Studio Fix comes in a small glass bottle, annoyingly with a twist top lid. I picked the Studio Fix Fluid foundation up on last month on my first visit to an actual Mac store, unfortunately thats about two hours away from where i live but id taken myself on a shopping trip and thought it was the perfect opportunity to get matched for a Mac foundation.
