Great Coverage

This is a simple, great powder foundation. The packaging is nice and simple with a mirror and a lower compartment that holds the included powder puff. It clicks securely shut and is nice and sturdy. The powder itself is super smooth and finely milled. I personally don't wear this powder just on it's own as I have acne that I prefer to completely cover up, however I do wear this on top of my liquid foundation and it works perfectly. It gives me that extra bit of coverage without looking heavy or cakey. I find other products (bronzer, highlight etc.) also blend nicely on top of this foundation as it creates a nice smooth surface for other products. I've finished and repurchased this product several times :)

Tips: Tap off the excess powder from your brush before applying to the face!

Great as a foundation or as a setting powder!

I love this by itself for a quick foundation, but I also love it when I use it lightly over liquid foundation as a setting powder! It keeps my skin looking matte without drying out my skin and is really good coverage without looking cakey.. Love it!

Holy grail powder!

Ive been using this powder for about 18 months now and its my favourite hands down. I use it as a setting powder on top my liquid foundation - it adds coverage and sets makeup nicely (goes lovely with Nars Sheer Glow!). Its also nice to wear over BB cream for those days where you want a more natural look or just dont want to wear foundation. I actually opted for a drugstore powder for my last purchase and totally regret it!! Wish I had stuck to my HG!

Tips: I apply with a powder face brush - but keep the sponge that comes with the compact to throw in your handbag for touch ups!

New found love.

I have only recently got on the band wagon for this baby and I must say I have been truly missing out. I have used this a good handful of times on its own and overtop of liquid foundation and it worth beautifully for both. When using on it own I could build the coverage and get a nice light coverage or super full coverage. When putting over my foundation to set it i found it doing a beautiful job ad well. I did notice it clung to one or two dry patches on my face but I am yet to find a powder that doesn't.

Great coverage

I am using this for months but not everyday. I am feeling guilty when I put it on my face everyday because of its price! I only use this when I don't feel like putting full make up on my face and when I just want to cover some of my blemishes.

The powder foundation is really nice because you can put it as it is. It can cover light blemishes and it stays on your face for a long time. I love that it has many shades that can match a lot of skin. The only thing I don't love about this is its price, but its actually worth your money. If you want a more affordable one, there are lots of dupes coming out in the market nowadays, just be careful with the ingredients.

Overall, this is my holy grail powder foundation. Perfect for my skin type and my skin color.

Favourite Powder

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this. I use it almost everyday on top of my Nars sheer glow foundation. It does not go on cakey, but has great coverage. Sometimes I wear it by itself (with primer) and it does the job great. Im lucky I received this as a gift so I don't feel as bad using it all the time because of the price! Sometimes foundation doesn't sit well on my nose, so I would put this on my nose and it makes all the redness go away, it does not move throughout the day and it does not make the blackheads on my nose more prominent. This is in all honesty the best powder I have ever used and I will be very sad when it runs out. I am quite a fair girl and I have the shade NC15 and it is the perfect match to my skin-tone. I was lucky with getting the right colour as it was a gift, but I would recommend getting matched by a professional.

ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE

Ever since I started using this powder last year I have never gone back. ITS GREAT!

I have it in two shades, NW20 and NW22 for my fair/light skin and it's just great. I find the NW20 almost perfectly matches my skin tone and I use it on an almost daily basis. I often put BB cream on my face and top it off with this powder using a flat angled brush that applies it quite densely. I find using it this way gives me great coverage! If i want a more minimal/less coverage look I apply it with a big powder brush which disperses the powder more across my face.

Although the NW22 is a bit too warm/dark for my natural skin tone but I often use this powder when I am fake tanned or want to look a bit darker. I usually apply it with a big powder brush.

All in all this product is great, probably my favourite MAC product. Use a smaller denser brush for more coverage and a bigger brush for less. You don't need liquid foundation to have full coverage! The formula is great, it's quite soft and buttery, not too chalky and blends out really nicely. There's a big range of colours, even differentiating between warm and cool tones. I wish it was cheaper but I think it's definitely worth it!

Tips: Spend some time finding the right shade

A Perfect Powder!

The MAC Studio Fix Powder is a LOVELY product! While it's more expensive than the Natio powder I usually get I've found it to have a wonderful effect on the skin. Great for applying overtop of foundation with a brush. For pale skin this powder is excellent as it doesn't result in a yellowy finish and doesn't seem to oxidise easily either. Stays on all day and helps to keep my skin looking fresh and flawless.

Any way is the right way!

I wear this everyday sometimes with foundation underneath but mostly just moisturiser concealer and the studio fix powder and I’m ready to go! Saves so much time and looks so natural!

HOLY grail!!!

This is my go to everyday powder! It is super versatile, depending on what I want to wear (in terms of makeup) I use it either all over my face as a medium/full coverage, or a little over my foundation to set it in place and to provide some extra coverage and longevity. It blends easily and doesn’t leave my face feeling cakey like some other powders I have used in the past. Definitely my go to when travelling and when I want to look good with minimal fuss!

Tips: If you feel like it leaves you too matte then use a hydrating setting spray!
