The Cream that disappears,but changes EVERYTHING!!!!
What struck me first was the texture,which I LOVE!! It's soft,creamy and glides on! It acts like a weightless fluid that becomes a micro-veil the moment it touches the skin. The cream breaks into this ultra-fine, water-light slip that moves over the skin without any resistance. It never pools, never...

Perfumey, hydrating
I normally prefer a low fragrance moisturizer that does not contain perfume. This cream has a very strong fragrance that is not all natural/ extracts, though the fragrance does not linger for too long. It goes on a little oily feelings but it dries down well and leaves the skin glowy. It doesn't fe...

Gives skin a glow

It's unusual that a moisturizer can wow me but this waterlight cream by Mac did just that! The texture is divine—it is light and airy but not so light that you're left with nothing. My skin is left moisturized (enough that this can be used at night) while also glowing. I did side by sides with my current moisturizer and the glow difference was very noticeable. No issues with irritation or pilling from makeup. And there is a faint skincare scent but I don't believe there is any added fragrance. Definitely adding this into my daily routine! I received this product for free from MAC Cosmetics for testing and review purposes.

When I heard the name, I thought this would be watery and produce light moisture. I was wrong. This is a very luxurious cream that leaves your skin feeling hydrated and smooth. I have dry skin and using this in the evening in conjunction with the canvas balm has increased the moisture retention in my skin, especially in the current winter months
Love it so much

The MAC Hyper Real SkinCanvas Waterlight Cream is an absolute standout for anyone who loves hydrated, healthy-looking skin. The texture is beautifully lightweight—almost cloud-like—yet deeply moisturizing, making it perfect for daily use under makeup or on its own. What I love most is how quickly it absorbs without feeling greasy. My skin feels instantly smoother, plumper, and refreshed, with a subtle glow that looks natural rather than shiny. It layers incredibly well with foundation and actually improves how makeup sits on the skin, giving that smooth, "skin-like" finish MAC is known for.

Sooo good!

I absolutely love how lightweight this moisturizer is! As an oily skin curly I have to find products that don't leave my skin feeling heavy! This moisturizer deeply hydrates my skin without leaving any sort of oily residue! I highly recommend! I received this product for free from MAC Cosmetics for testing and review purposes."
The best cream

I really love this cream, it's amazing!!. At first, I thought it might make my face oily, but it doesn't at all. I've been using it for about a month, and my face and neck feel smoother and more even, with smaller-looking pores. I totally recommend it.
