I'm not a fan of powder foundations so I tend to use this just to add some extra coverage and set my foundation. The powder applies well over the skin and isn't too heavy! The compact is so handy to touch up/blot the skin throughout the day! Well worth the money you pay.

Tips: I like to apply it with a big fluffy powder brush so you get an even sheer application!
I was really impressed with this pressed powder. I have quite oily skin and find most powders get messy but what ever the formula this one doesn't.
Light on your skin but great with coverage it's good and a setting powder or on its own. Lasts to which is good for the wallet.
Tips: Go into the store and don't be fooled into buying any colour. I've bought it twice now and the first time they gave me 10 shades darker than what I am. Get them to apply it then go for a walk. See what it looks like out of the store and go back and say what you think about it.
This powder is amazing. I have used it everyday since I've bought it without fail. Great for oily skin to keep it matte throughout the day. Super easy to apply and comes in the normal sleek black MAC packaging. It is pricey but is definitely a great investment.
This is a short review because I don't know what else to say other than I love this powder, its everything you want in a powder and is true to everything it says, the only issue I have is the palest one is very slightly too dark and a little on the pink side for me but barely noticeably so. All around I love this, only major downside is the price.
I bought this powder while on holiday as I found that wearing liquid foundation was just unbearable in the heat. This powder provided a nice coverage that allowed my skin to breathe and was long wearing even in the heat (however I would say it's medium coverage rather than full). I love that it is so easy to use and the compact is hard wearing and doesn't fall to pieces like some other brands. It also comes with a built in mirror for easy reapplication. I went back to work after my holiday and had comments like, "Wow, you look so healthy and refreshed," and I really think it's down to this powder.
I used to use a lot of liquid foundation and never touched this product even though it was in my makeup, until I ran out of my usual foundation. I get acne quite easily and once I started using this as my usual foundation it didn’t cause any acne compared to liquid foundation but still had the same coverage. I will definitely be getting this again when I run out
Tips: Use on clean skin and use the sponge it comes with to apply
I prefer powder foundations to liquid, as they don't irritate my skin as much. Therefore I am in love with the Studio Fix Powder, it stays on all day for a lasting finish! It's my go to foundation. I also love how the MAC girls match your colour as mine has changed from NC30 in Summer to NC20 in winter. Loved this product so much that I've hit the pan and NEED to buy again!
This powder does everything it says and more, a full coverage powder to set your foundation or a velvet smooth powder. This powder should be used with a light hand as if I have to reapply during the day it can look a little cakey but I have been using this powder for years and it will always be apart of my collection.
Tips: If you don't like a heavy foundation or powder look the mineralise powder is just as amazing but lighter on the skin
When being buying a liquid foundation I was also recommended to buy the studio fix powder to match (NC15). It offerings great coverage and makes my skin look flawless. The only issue I has is that it drys my skin and leaves it feeling a bit tight when using it on it's own. I will now only use it over my liquid foundation for a full coverage.
This is a higher end powder foundation a bit on the more expensive side but in my opinion i think it is worth the money!
It gives a full coverage flawless finish, completely matte. I would recommend this benefits oily skin as its very matte. I used this powder over my foundation and concealer for a full coverage look and it is VERY long lasting. However usually on a more day to day basis i can just use concealer and studio fix powder for a more toned down flawless look. It leaves my skin looking kind of airbrushed! Although sometimes when my skin is more dry i have to use quite a bit of moisturiser beforehand to hydrate my skin so the powder doesn't cling to any dry patches. (people with dryer skin beware of this)
Overall great powder, does everything it says it should and i would definitely repurchase
