Comments about MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation:
I've been using Too Faced powder foundation and it was the best I've ever tried, until now. I wish I knew sooner that this Studio Fix was great. It lasts longer than TF, it's a little cheaper than TF, and it has more product inside. It also controls my oily t-zone and that's my biggest requirement. I love this!
Pros
- Blends Well
- Easy To Apply
- Goes On Smoothly
- Good Pigmentation
- Long-Lasting
Cons
- Fallout
Best Uses
- Acne-Prone or Oily Skin
Comments about MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation:
I love this so much. I was a little worried about using a powder foundation. However I love using this now. I think that it is very good for when you don't have time to sit in front of the mirror for an hour in the morning. I use one of the pro flat buffer brushes from morphe as well as a beauty blender in some places.

Comments about MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation:
I love this product. As a high school teacher, I have to wake up at 5:30 every morning and there isn't time to put on liquid foundation. This gives the same buildable coverage in about 30 seconds. It takes a couple tries to figure out how much to use and not look too "powdery", but once you get it, it is consistently great!

Comments about MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation:
I use a powder foundation brush to apply. I don't like to use the sponge it comes with. I am able to get more product on my brush. Also, use the prep prime fix+. I like how it feels light on my skin and fast to apply!
Pros

Comments about MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation:
I can't believe how smooth this goes on, how natural it looks, how great it stays on, and that it keeps looking fantastic ALL day!
I just turned 60 and was looking for something with medium to full coverage (to cover age spots) without looking cakey or overdone. Also, I have very problematic skin due to age and having both non-Hodgekins lymphoma and Sjogren's syndrome.
I WILL LOOK NO FURTHER; as this is the only foundation I'll buy. Also, it doesn't build-up in wrinkles and de-emphasizes my flaws. I love it!
Pros
- Blends Well
- Easy To Apply
- Goes On Smoothly
- Lightweight
Cons
Best Uses
- Light To Medium Coverage
Comments about MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation:
I really like this pressed powder, pretty good coverage and nice feel.

Q:
I have tried to apply this numerous times and it is always so cakey. Do you have any advice on how to apply this so it goes on flawlessly? I do apply moisturizer and primer prior to application.Asked on 4/12/2018 by Aisha from Hastings, NE1 answer
A:
We're glad to help, Aisha! MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation delivers a matte finish and full coverage. Be sure you allow your moisturizer and primer to dry down a few moments before applying to ensure a smooth application. We also suggest applying this product with a Powder Brush (beginning in the center of the face, blending outwards) for the most flawless results. Additionally, you can add MAC Prep + Prime Fix+ which is also a fantastic product to mist onto the skin after applying Studio Fix to remove an overly matte finish.Answered on 4/12/2018 by Brand Expert from MAC
