Absolutely fell in love w/this foundation immediately!!
I absolutely fell in love with this foundation immediately when I applied it to my wrist because it was the perfect match and I could hardly tell I had put it on. I have never been able to find a foundation that matches my skin so perfectly! So I was already amazed from that! Then when I applied it ...

Good & then not!
Edit: Below was my review from applying to wearing it roughly 3hrs. Unfortunately hours passed that, the foundation was kind of flaking & crumbling on my skin. It almost looked like my skin was dry & that was causing the flaking but nope. I also believe this broke me out a bit. That has never happen...

I love this foundation. This is my first time trying a MAC product and I now understand why MAC is many makeup artists go-to. This product matched my skin tone so well and I got so many compliments on how good it looked on my skin. I loved it so much, I even used it on my wedding day. The finish is so luminous and it has a nice medium coverage that is buildable if you are looking for full coverage.

Comments about NC13
There so many things I have to say about this foundation. And I would be comparing this to other bestseller high end foundations. My makeup and skin has never been better since I started using this foundation. This is the best foundation I have ever used. It has sun protections + skincare. My skin has never looked as beautiful as it has with foundation. You only need one pump and it's completely foolproof. Lasts day to night
It used to be great
It used to be great, the best foundation ever, now it's terrible. The change of formula has ruined it and it no longer resembles the original. It is now very light coverage, greasy and settles into all pores and lines, emphasizes texture and clumps up in a greasy, cakey mess….. After being a lifelong, loyal Mac user, I've had to move on to another brand.
I would buy this product again!
It's a good foundation if you want a matte look! I like it but it's really matte so you have to hurry and finish products quick or the foundation would dry fast! It's a good foundation, but it makes you have acne so don't use it a lot! Use it for only special occasions!
Terrible
Terrible reformulation. It's not matte…it separates into greasy clumps within the hour. It's not long lasting….it comes off with the slightest touch. It emphasizes texture and lines in your face. It's a terrible, frustrating product now. Don't waste your time or money, another foundation will perform better than this. Truly disappointing now.
