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.

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!

Perfection!

I absolutely adore everything about this foundation! I find it a medium (but buildable coverage). I have moderately oily skin and I fefinitely love the matte finish the foundation gives me. I also find a little bit goes a very long way and a bottle lasts me a really long time! - I wish the bottle came with a pump, however that is a very small complaint. I like that is has a low SPF in it which helps to avoid flash back in photos which make you appear very pale. overall, yes the foundation can be pricey but it is well worth it!

Tips: If you find the product oxidising, check your moisturiser!! - I find this foundation works the best with an oil free moisturiser base!

My Absolute Must Have Foundation

This is the best foundation ever and I have tried and worn many brands. The finish is flawless although I do believe a good base to work on and the right application tools definitely help with this and help a little go further than finger or sponge application. Love that coverage can be built up or using the brush, quite sheer. Have sometimes sensitive skin that has never reacted to this product. Also nice when worn quite light in coverage with a touch of bronzer or MAC MSF natural to set.

Tips: use with MAC 188 SMALL DUO FIBRE FACE BRUSH for flawless application and getting a little foundation to go a long way (my fav fav multipurpose must have brush)

Fantastic foundation

Finally a perfect foundation for my skin! I use NC15 regularly each day for a light-medium coverage. It is also buildable so is perfect for nights out or situations when you may need a bit more coverage. After trailing several brands of foundation it is great to find a foundation that matches my skin tone.

Tips: It is important to be aware of the NC and NW tone system they use to be able to fit the perfect match for your skin.

HOLY GRAIL !

This is definitely one of the best foundations I have owned! I am able to wear it on a day to day basis, with just one layer giving my skin a nice medium coverage, but what I also love is that it is so build-able and I am able to make it to a high coverage if I am going out! I would definitely recommend MAC studio fix for people who like a more 'natural' matte finish! Although abit on the more expensive side here in NZ, one bottle has lasted my nearly a year with still about half left! love love love xox

Tips: Get a more perfect finish if you buff it out with a flat top kabuki brush and then go over it with a damp beauty blender! also make sure to use a primer :*

The Only Foundation For My Skin Type

I suffer from really dry skin on my face and body and in the past my dry skin was really visible when I put on foundation. It was a real confidence knocker. Also, I tried so many foundation colours but they never seemed to match my skin tone. I had almost given up until I tried the MAC Studio Fix Foundation Fluid SPF 15. It was the perfect match for my skin tone. Even friends commented on how perfect my skin looked.

Everything about this foundation oozes innovation and modern sophistication from the simple minimalist design of the glass bottle to the pump with the lock feature that prevents your foundation from spilling all over the lining of your handbag.

While the cost is a little on the pricey side, a little really goes a long way. I brought my bottle in October last year and the bottle is almost at the end of it's life 10 months later. Or if you know someone that is going to the States, ask them to grab you a bottle as Mac products are usually 30-40% cheaper than in NZ.

The product itself feels light on my skin like i'm wearing nothing at all, yet leaves my skin looking airbrushed afterwards. I recommend teaming it with a bronzing powder (I use Mac Bronzing Powder) for a sunkissed look.

Pros: Perfect skin match, light on the skin, a little goes a long way, pump lock to prevent foundation spilling into your handbag.

Cons: Pricey.

Overall: I need MAC Studio Fix Foundation Fluid SPF 15 in my life.

Tips: if you know someone that is going to the States, ask them to grab you a bottle as Mac products are usually 30-40% cheaper than in NZ.
