MAC Prep + Prime Fix + Review

Mac Fix+ has been a long time pal of mine, i have loved it since the first SPRITZ! Weather its being used to finish your makeup, or foil an eyeshadow this product can do no wrong! I am a lover of dewy skin, but foundation always seems to rub off during the day, so i always have to set with a powder, i was running into the problem of m skin looking really powdery and borderline cake-y and i was not a fan! but then i bough Fix+ and my life changed! this product is amazing for setting your makeup and adding moisture back into your skin! if you've over powdered just spritz a bit of fix+ and no one will ever know!

I love the packaging i thing it is amazing! and you get a nice amount of product, i find myself drowning myself in it daily and it will last me a good 4-5 months, and for only $38 that is brilliant!

Is a great product for spraying over your face once you have completed your make up. It is very nourishing and refreshing on my skin. It is also great for intensifying your eyeshadows.

I decided to purchase this after watching many reviews on youtube and wow it has certainly made a difference! I purchased a small bottle on trade me to try it out first. I definitely will be buying the bigger bottle once the smaller one has run out.

I have had a lot of dry patches lately and this spray has been great for fixing these dry patches once i have put my makeup on

I've owned the MAC Fix+ for about 6months now and I can't imagine my life without it. If I am ever having a day where I want to have dewy skin or a 'not too powdery' makeup look I will use this over my makeup once I have put powder on.

Here's a few things which I love about it:

• It makes all hairs and powders settle down on my face and it stops the powder clinging to any dry patches on my skin

• It makes my skin have a glowy look to it - I don't know how it does it but it does!

• This is awesome for summer in the hot weather and your skin is feeling a bit dull or dry I will use this before and after makeup application and it works wonders.

• I also use this for if I want an eyeshadow to be more pigmented - i'll spray my brush with Fix+ and then it'll make the shadow stick on better and a lot more pigmented.

I initially bought the 30ml travel size but have now purchased the 100ml and I will definitely be re-purchasing this - it's a must have!

I love the pump on it as it's not an aerosol can or awkward pump head so I find I can spray it easily.

I purchased MAC Fix+ over 6 months ago, and it has spent its life so far at the bottom of my drawer. After finally pulling it out and putting it to use I was kicking myself for not using it earlier. I wear full coverage makeup on a daily basis. I use Loreal True Match liquid foundation, MAC pro-longwear concealer under my eyes and my whole face is finished off with Australis Fresh and Flawless powder. This combination of products isn't intended to give a natural finish, but I also don't want to look cakey. There have been many occasions where I look cakey, almost like I have some scary skin disease I am hiding underneath it all.

MAC Fix+ is the final step in my makeup routine. If I am needing my makeup to really last, I will spray the Skindinavia setting spray first, followed by MAC Fix +. The spray does give you a little fright at first, as it feels like you have squirted a whole lot of water on your face, rather than a mist. However the results are amazing. Any powdery finish or cakeyness is gone, and a fresh, flawless finish is left behind. I don't loose any coverage, but it looks like I have used far less product to achieve a flawless finish. It does take 30 seconds or so for the product to settle, but I couldn't stop staring at my skin when it had. I have combination skin that can get a little oily during the day, and this product is perfect. I wouldn't describe the results as dewy, it just removes any powdery appearance. MAC Fix+ would be the perfect companion for anyone with dry skin.

There are multiple ways to use MAC Fix+. It can be sprayed before and after makeup application, onto foundation brushes and onto eyeshadow brushes to intensify colours. The product is available in full and mini sizes, so if you are unsure about this product the mini would be a great option.

I was really sceptical about this because it just seemed like fancy water. But wow it's fantastic, i use it everyday after applying my powder to set it all down and make it all look more natural. Because adding this makes it seem less powdery and a little more dewy. I don't find that it prolongs the wear of my makeup. But it makes it look so much better. I also use it for pigments when I use them on my eyes. It makes them look more foiled and pigmented. Will continue to repurchase forever!

The prep + prime (Fix +) range is a range that has been designed to be used together. This is why I would only recommend if you use other mac products in this range. If you don't you will not see the same affects and it may not actually help set your make up at all. I also would only recommend if you use a mac powder foundation as your foundation or as your setting powder.

I use this with my mac studio fix powder foundation and it works a treat, i love the way it settles the powder and sets it giving it the most amazing looking finish to my skin.

Over all for the price and what it does I would buy it again providing I am still using my mac studio fix powder.

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!

PLEASE NOTE : this is based on my daily look of BB cream and studio fix powder......

Where to start?! This was the first finishing spray I ever tried. I was at Mac getting tested for my summer shade. When I sat in the chair, and my lovely artist spritzed on my face, I instantly shouted 'what was that?!' As she was buffing my 7hr old make up, I literally died as I saw my make up come back to life. I had to have it there and then. So good under make up and over. Great to spray ob half way through the day to resuscitate your make up. The smell is out of this world, classy packaging, fine mist application. I recommend this as first choice to anyone wanting a setting spray. The caffeine in it really does wake your skin up and make you look and feel like a new babe! Try this .... Plus it can go towards your next Back To Mac ;)

Love the product it does what it aims to do refresh the skin and allow makeup application to go on smoothly as well as setting powders down so that your makeup doesn't look cakey. Also a great product to use with eyeshadows to build pigmentation on lid. Bought the full size about a year ago and still have a decent amount left.

Well at least in my opinion!

This spray comes in a rather generous size that I will see lasting me a long time, previously I had the "to go" size to trial it which I fell in love with, that lasted me a good 3 months so the full size could be triple that at least! With a even sprtiz from the nozzle that finally veils your face to set your makeup and clear cap.

I use it not only as a finishing spray but as a loose powder and glitter mixer to turn them into a paint state so I can apply them to my eyes properly and evenly, helps to get the pigments to stand out and sets them all at the same time which is just perfect.

As a setting/finishing spray I use it when I need it, not every day requires fixing but when I do apply it, it settles almost instantly so you are not left with a wet mess that could cause your makeup to drip and move. Nope a quick mist that covers the entire face and your ready to face the world with unmovable makeup!
