When I got MAC Studio Fix Fluid Spf 15, it seemed like the only foundation I was going to need through the summer months. I got this stuff as I wanted some base with good amount of coverage. My skin isn’t looking great, all thanks to my hectic schedule and poor eating habits.

Brand Overview

Studio Fix remains one of the top pressed-powder foundations available, despite several impressive entries from other companies. It has an exceptionally silky, talc-based texture that applies and blends like a dream. As usual, wet or dry application is possible, but using this wet poses the risk of streaking. Dry application provides light to medium-full coverage. If you prefer this type of foundation and have normal to slightly dry or slightly oily skin, it is highly recommended. Almost all of the colors are impressive (albeit repetitive) for a broad range of skin tones, but the following shades are best avoided due to pink, orange, or peach overtones: C6, NC42, NW25, NW30, NW40, and NC40.

Tested on animals:Yes

M.A.C. Cosmetics At-A-Glance

What more can one say for this long-standing makeup line whose products have spoken eloquently for themselves for years? In many ways, M.A.C. Cosmetics is a pivotal line not only for makeup artists but also for any in-the-know cosmetics consumer. Although M.A.C. has several singularly outstanding products, they generally excel by virtue of the range of choices offered. The color selection for everything from lipsticks to foundations is exceptional. Most of the makeup brushes are beautiful, full, and soft, as well as properly sized to fit the contours of the face and eyes.

When it comes to skincare you may be tempted to dismiss the small assortment M.A.C. offers and skip right to their makeup with its well-earned positive reputation. But doing so would mean missing a handful of beautifully formulated products that are worth trying. By no means is M.A.C.'s skin-care line one-stop shopping (at least not if you have blemishes, skin discolorations, or require more than a couple options per category), but you'll find more than just the color products impressive here, and the prices aren't unreasonable either!

M.A.C.'s salespeople are often trained makeup artists, too. This is especially true in the freestanding M.A.C. boutiques, where the staff tends to be true makeup artists.

Note: M.A.C. sets itself apart from other beauty brands by staying ahead of the curve by launching a seemingly-constant rotation of impressive limited edition products, usually with fashion-forward themes. Though it's impossible to review every limited edition product, many of M.A.C.'s are as impressive as those in their permanent collection.

Strengths: Some impressive moisturizers; praiseworthy foundations in a mostly gorgeous range of shades; good concealers; several great powder-based products including blush, bronzer, and eyeshadow in various finishes; dizzying array of lipstick shades in mostly sumptuous formulas; several very good mascaras (regular and waterproof); top-notch makeup brushes; many of the Prep + Prime products work as claimed.

Weaknesses:A few products with high levels of potential skin irritants.

Definitely do a test first

This was actually my first ever foundation, and I used it for a good few years too, not really knowing any better. It really is an excellent foundation, with great coverage and lasts for ages!
I have found that the formula oxidizes quite a bit, and for some reason the MAC consultants still don't seem to take this into consideration! So my biggest tip - get a tester first! Check that the shade works in natural light as it looks very different when you put it on at the counter. Because it oxidizes, it's super important that you test how it wears on your face for a few hours first.
I still use this foundation every so often, though not quite like I used to. I feel like the coverage is a bit too heavy for me, and it transfers quite a bit. Now I mix it in with my daily foundation to amp up the coverage instead, or use it on it's own (with a deep moisturiser and primer) only when I want a really flawless made up look.
I have read that it makes others oily, but for me it seemed to actually dry my skin out. My skin has of course changed over the years and have found other foundations that suit me better so probably won't repurchase in a hurry.
I'd still recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality full coverage foundation instead of a natural one. Just make sure you get a sample/tester first!!

I'm not a believer anymore

When I first started buying makeup, the only brand that anyone ever knew was MAC. Like all indian girls, I was matched to an NC45 and lived my life being 3 shades darker than I actually was. The product itself is pretty decent. Its full coverage and has some nice undertone. HOWEVER, the brand itself has n
