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 ...

Horrible
Firstly, it dries quickly when applying. Secondly, this formulation has a much stronger smell than previous versions I've tried. Unfortunately, after a few hours I had to take the foundation off due to eye irritation, sinus irritation, facial flushing, and headache, which are usually signs of allerg...

reliable matte foundation with good coverage and long wear

Comments about NC18
I've been using the Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 24HR Matte Foundation + Oil Control and honestly it's one of those foundations that really lives up to the hype. The coverage is medium to full but still looks natural on the skin, which I love because it evens out my complexion without feeling too heavy. What stands out the most for me is the oil control. It keeps my skin looking matte for hours, but not flat or dry. My skin still looks smooth and fresh throughout the day. I also like that it blends really easily and a little product goes a long way. Another thing I appreciate is how long-wearing it is. It stays in place for many hours and doesn't separate or look patchy, even after a long day.

Comments about NC20
I've tried so many foundations over the years, but I always end up coming back to this one. It is officially my all-time favorite! The coverage is buildable and breathable, but what really sets it apart is the oil control. It stays matte without looking flat or cakey, and the shade NC20 is a perfect match for me. If you want a reliable foundation that actually lasts through the day, this is the one.

Comments about NW25
let's talk about the MAC Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 Foundation from MAC Cosmetics because… wow. This foundation literally gives filter-like skin. It has medium to full buildable coverage, but it still feels lightweight and never looks cakey. One thing I absolutely love is how well it controls shine, leaving the skin with a soft matte finish that still looks natural and polished. It blends beautifully into the skin and makes your complexion look smooth, even, and super flawless. Plus, it lasts for hours without losing that fresh, perfected look. 💄 My thoughts: If you love a glam, flawless, long-lasting base, this foundation is definitely a must-have in your makeup kit. ✨ MAC never disappoints.
Amazing shade range
I am VERY fair with neutral undertones. The shade i got is NW5, after being color matched in-store by the MAC girlies. It's described as cool toned, but i'm definitely not cool and it still isn't noticeably pink on me. it's exceedingly difficult to find a foundation that isn't too dark for me, and when i am lucky enough to find one truly light enough, a lot of the time the undertones don't match– either way too yellow or way too pink. This product has a shade perfect for me, and even lighter ones! Which is so rare, and exciting! I have moderate acne scarring and although i wouldnt describe this formula as full coverage, it's very buildable. i honestly don't need more than one layer unless i have an active, red breakout happening. The formula is lightweight and comfortable, holds up throughout most of the day, and doesn't settle in my fine lines when i use primer. Pairs amazingly with the MAC setting spray! (I cant remember what it's called, but comes in a white bottle with pink letters). The finish isn't too matte, but can be if you use setting powder over top. A little pricey, but not as pricey as ripping thru a million drugstore foundations looking for one light enough for me (i couldnt). Anyways. Love!
