MAC Foundation *Help*

So I've been wanting to invest in a MAC foundation for quite awhile now but as the price tag is not very bank account friendly, I want to make sure im going to get the use out of it! I hear many people give out about the texture or staying power of several of the MAC foundations. But none the less, Im still willing to give it a go.



Two of MAC's foundations that I hear a lot of people use are the 'Pro Longwear' foundation and the 'Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15'. To be completally honest as I am a complete newbie to the MAC foundation range I have no idea at all of the differences between these two products, or if they are worth the money.

Im looking for a foundation with medium - full coverage. I have combination skin so oil based foundations don't usually work well for me. Im mainly going to use it as a photo/occasion/nights out foundation, situations where I know there will be lots of photos so I will be wanting a flawless finish.

If anyone has any recommendations on which MAC foundation they think would be best for me whether it is one I have mentioned or another from their range it would be greatly appreciated! :) I'd also love to hear what MAC foundation you use and your opinion on MAC foundations.

  1. pro longwear is really good, both of those are but i'd say pro longwear gives a more flawless finish and it lasts so well. many brides choose it as their foundation! x

  2. I tried pro longwear and had a love hat relationship with it. If you're looking for a semi matt/natural finish that it is really good, like Jess said it also does last really well.

    I just prefer a dewy finish and that's why it isn't my favourite product, I've heard studio fix can be quite cakey and heavy so be careful about that. Best thing to do is go a grab a few samples to test out which ones work best for you.

    Let us know how you get on!

    1. I picked up the 'Studio Fix Fluid' as they didnt have the right shade for me in 'Pro longwear'. Im going to try it out over christmas and the new year and then write a post on my thoughts so fingers crossed!
