MAC Prep + Prime Fix + Review

This is a must have product, smells amazing, sets your foundation so well gives off a natural look. affordable prices as well as the bottle last a long time even when using every day!

This item is a must have!! you can use it for so many things.

e.g. -hydrating the skin before makeup application -spraying your face after using lots of powders to help the powders settle in -spraying onto your brush before applying pigment to make the pigments more intense

Feels really refreshing on the skin and has a really refreshing scent. I use this everyday and it has lasted me at least 4 months so far and I have just under half a bottle left.

I use this on all my clients too!! This is definately a must have in your kit and for personal use

This setting spray is so good that I keep and extra in my bag when I’m out on a night so if it’s a really hot day and you scared of you makeup melting have a spray it’s will save your life.

I love this prime fix! Not only is it good for preparing the skin before makeup application and ensuring the makeup sits nice on the skin once applied it is also good for setting the finished makeup in place once a look is complete..absolutely recommend and definitely continue using it!!

Love this! I have this and the pink fix and am equally obsessed with both.

It was a hard choice but I watched a video about gold fix vs pink and they actually looked very similar so I grabbed pink fix and just the plain fix version.

It needs to be shaken pretty well for a start. But held at a good distance from your face you spritz a fine mist that leave your skin looking pretty wet then it dries quickly to reveal a fine radiance. The pink fix especially creates this glow that looks like you spent a looooong time applying makeup but really just used about 3 sprays to get this radiant looking skin. The pinks bottle needs a lot of shaking as the pigments settle to the bottom of the bottle.

I tend to use my plain fix for use prior to makeup application and pink fix for the finishing spray. It really does set my skin for some prime time makeup use. And finish my skin with a lovely shimmer that isn’t like glitter. With dry skin this is very hydrating and lifting just to stretch my makeup out a little longer so if I’m feeling a little flat in the afternoon I spray and can go about my day.

There’s a reason MAC Fix+ is a staple item on many personal collections and professional kits! Currently priced at $45 for 100ml or $24 for 30ml Fix+ is a very hydrating spray.

Because I have such dry skin I do find Fix+ prolongs how long my makeup stays on my skin, keeps me looking fresh and reduces any powder that may otherwise look cakey.

It comes in 4 different scents as well as 3 finishes. -Hydrating Finish -Original Scent -Coconut Scent -Lavendar Scent -Rose Scent -Glitter Finish -Gold Glitter -Pink Glitter -Matte Finish

The scents only last as they are being spritz - they do not stick like a perfume. Anyone with oily skin should give the matte variety a go! After a good drenching you will have never seen your face so matte! The glitter finish can be intense - for me it is more appropriate for a night out rather than daily use.

I originally got this years ago and have restocked many times since. It is the go to setting spray for when I have an event, want my makeup to last all day or just for a freshen up! It is a superfine mist, it doesn't take forever to dry once applied and does a great job of soaking up excess powder. It leaves my face with a dewey, natural look which I quite like, but if you like you can always go in with a light dusting of transluscent/blotting powder to have a matte finish after setting. It holds well and the only time I have trouble is summertime when I have liquid foundation on (pretty sure most do!) Love this and although I have found a few cheaper options for daily wear I still run back to this for longevity I can trust!

I absolutely love fix+. A friend used it on me, and I loved how it soaked up the excess powder. I purchased my own bottle and am now onto my second bottle. I use it after moisturiser to prime. It helps my foundation stick and soak into the skin (not the pores, don't worry!). It prevents makeup from sitting on the skin and looking heavy. I also use it over top of my makeup, to soak up excess powder. I don't use cream contour or highlight, so after using foundation, powder, blush, bronzer, contour, and highlighter a lot of powders can be sitting on the face. This takes away that cakey look, and brings back the dew. I also spray some during the day, if I feel like being refreshed. As Mac has brought out new scent's I think that would be nice to refresh the skin throughout the day. However, the original scent does not smell bad to me - I know of a few people who don't particularly enjoy the scent. To me it has a natural type of scent, a slight cucumber fragrance. I don't notice whether it makes my makeup last longer, however I was happy with the lasting power of my foundation and powder before purchasing this, I purely brought it for the reasons mentioned above.

This is a regular repurchase for me, a must have. Have tried so many setting sprays but this is the best. Packaging looks ordinary but it is the best product as it locks in makeup all day and gives a light dewy glowy finish.

I got this as a gift last Christmas and I'm usually not a fan of priming spray because I feel like it makes my face a bit heavy when I put on a lot of makeup but I got the chance to try one when I got it as a gift. I didn't know what the primer would do until I tried it. What it does is it makes the makeup more blend-able and the makeup just looks radiant and fresh. I love that it makes the makeup stays in place while having the dewy effect. I also use it as setting spray and it's just amazing!
