I had been looking for this product at the Mac counters about 6 months ago but couldn't get my hands on it as they were changing the packaging. A few weeks later on my birthday my friends gave me a Mac voucher and I tried my luck again - and they had them in stock!
The product itself looks beautiful. The black shiny box that it comes with really makes it stand out, it looks classy and sleek and so pretty. The bottle itself is a matte white/clear, you can see inside to see how much product you have left which is a bonus. It also looks so stunning on my makeup table which I love!
Over liquid foundation, the mist doesnt make too much of a difference over it. BUT over powder products (I've used the Mac Studio Fix powder and Australis Fresh and Flawless), the Fix+ settles your powders so well and (almost) makes it look like you're wearing foundation or no makeup at all! It doesnt change the coverage of your makeup, instead just puts everything into place.
Compared to the Austalis finishing mist, the Mac Fix+ doesnt have a strong scent which is nice. The spray bottle also allows for the product to be sprayed onto your face nice and evenly.
This is the only finishing spray I would use when I want my makeup to look good. I trust it and it has given me amazing results so I would definitely repurchase!
After reading everyone's reviews on this product , I don't like to say that I don't like it, but I really don't.. I'm not sure why it doesn't work for me, maybe it's my super oily skin or the foundation I use, but I found it didn't do anything for my skin or my makeup. I tried using it as a pre makeup moisturiser and after as a makeup fix, and it didn't work as either for me. It was a product I really wanted to love, but it didn't work for me. Glad I only bought he travel version.
