Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
This product is so worth the money! Its a build-able foundation, so it goes on light at first but once I put on another layer, it looked great! It appears light and never cakey. Great for a mature complexion, like mine. I will buy again & again,
Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
I have no complaints about the formula for this foundation at all. It took me a year (I don't wear it every single day) but I just finished an entire bottle of this recently and decided to try the Mineralize Moisture foundation next in the same shade.
If you've ever tried that one, this is similar but thinner and a little more sheer. It also has more SPF than Mineralize Moisture although it def does not feel like a sunscreen. Good for dry / normal skin and I like the dropper. It's easier to control how much you use.

Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
This foundation is very beautiful on the skin. It has a nice dewy finish and is quite long lasting. I find this foundation works best paired with the Hourglass Mineral Veil Primer and set with the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural powder. This is my go to everyday foundation and it never settles in my smile lines which is a huge plus!

- Easy To Apply
- Goes On Smoothly

Cons

Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
I have acne scarring and uneven skin tone. I don't like heavy, matte makeup because it can settle into scarring and often looks dull and flat. While the coverage of this makeup is light, I find that it evens out my skin tone really well! It looks luminous all day, applies so evenly, and gives me more of the natural, glowing look I prefer.

- Easy To Apply
- Goes On Smoothly
- Lightweight
- Long-Lasting

- Acne-Prone or Oily Skin

Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
I have fair skin and freckles, and I've been looking for a foundation that is sheer enough to show my freckles, but I can still build it up to cover up redness/blemishes. When I went into the store the attendant was super helpful and shade matched me perfectly. This is one of the only foundations I've tried that doesn't accentuate dryness/flakiness. It makes my skin look so dewy and beautiful, and ever since I started using it I've gotten so many compliments on how my skin looks! What I will say is that it does take a little while to dry down, but it is pretty long wearing. Overall a beautiful foundation, very dewy, but I wouldn't recommend if you have super oily skin.
Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
This foundation is the worst I have ever used. It looks cakey, smells bad, and never fully dries down. Even with setting powder it clung to my hair and moved around on my face (I have dry skin). It made my skin crawl and I immediately had to get it off of my face. I definitely do not recommend this product.
Pros
- Easy To Apply
- Lightweight
- Long-Lasting
Cons
- Pricey / Poor Value
Best Uses
- Light To Medium Coverage
Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
Went into the store with fiance and didn't know where to start as I hadn't wore any makeup except mascara in about 2 years. The sales associate was very helpful and understood that I wasn't looking for anything over the natural look and showed me what would be the best match for what I was looking for. And every subsequent time I have gone into the store she remembers me.
Pros
- Blends Well
- Easy To Apply
- Goes On Smoothly
- Good Pigmentation
- Lightweight
Cons
Best Uses
- Light To Medium Coverage
Comments about MAC Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation:
I was really looking for a medium coverage foundation because my full coverage made me look too "cakey." This is nice and smooth. The only thing with this foundation is that it smudges or wipes away easily. This is the type of foundation you keep in your purse to reapply after dinner.
