Mac Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation

Pros: Evens complexion, absorbs oil, light, creates flawless looking skin, long lasting
Cons: Expensive ($23)

I rarely venture into the World of Cosmetics. I’ll hang around the fringes with lotions, creams, and nail polishes but rarely do I dare to enter the mysterious world of cosmetic products. Just because I have two X chromosomes in my genetic makeu ...

Pros: easy to use, effective
Cons: none here though have to color match

I always liked the idea of a powder, all in one step, foundation. The problem was that the powders I tried (mainly loose powders) often settled in to every line and crease of my face, or else the ingredients in them itched my face so badly that I would ...

Pros: Great coverage in easy-to-use powder formula.
Cons: Might not be best suited for drier complexions.

MAC Studiofix is my favorite foundation. Here's why:

MAC Studiofix is easy to use. It's talc-based formula means it goes on like a powder, yet the other ingredients mean it covers like a foundation. While drier complexions might not be...

Pros: 37 different shades, lasts for hours, doesn't rub off, need I say more?
Cons: This is for oily skin only, may not work as well for combination/dry skin

Even though I'm sick, I'm so happy I'm giddy. I have finally (thanks to randfan and others) found the perfect foundation for my skin. My skin produces oil like it's going out of style, and though I found a good cleanser/lotion combo that combats the...

Pros: Light feel, absorbs oil like a champ, a little goes a long way
Cons: a bit expensive but well worth it

*~*~*UPDATED 12/16/03*~*~* About 2 years ago I went in to get my hair done. Ok, I admit it, I was looking pretty scary. No makeup on, hair wasn't done, the whole gross 9 yards. Turns out that it was a good thing I decided to not ...

Pros: Light, easy and quick to apply and provides great coverage
Cons: None

I'm very picky when it comes to foundation. This summer I've been on a make-up odyssey and finding the "perfect" foundation has proven to be my biggest problem. I don't like the time factor involved with liquids. I really like cream-to-powder or powder fo ...

Pros: Good coverage, lasts well on combination/oily skins, affordable and comes in my perfect shade
Cons: Can turn cakey if wrongly applied, slightly heavier feel, no skincare benefits

I have always been on the lookout for the perfect powder foundation since despite my efforts to improve my skin, it has always been less than perfect. I would say my skin is very combination since it is always shiny in the forehead and nose, but rather ...

Pros: lots of shades, mirrored compact, sponge storage, texture, blendability
Cons: can look cakey, shade classification system is backwards!

MAC is recognized for their excellent line of reasonably-priced foundations that come in a wide variety of textures. Studiofix, however, is the top seller.

Studiofix is a powder foundation that comes in a nice mirrored compact with a...

Pros: Incredible coverage, true to life colors, no clogging or breakouts, easy to use. Great!!
Cons: Is a powder, so sometimes needs something to stick to

This product is just fabulous. I love it, and I'm saying this after a lengthy and epic search for the right foundation.

When I was in high school, I was blessed with perfect skin. It's amazing when I look back at my school pictures. I looked...

Pros: Smooth, matte finish, non-comedogenic, covers up well, good shade selection, lasts long, convenient compact
Cons: Expensive, not the lightest foundation available, may look cakey when applied with sponge

When it comes to make-up, I've had my share of awkward phases, especially when it comes to choosing foundation. I can recall at least three times I've had a guy tell me something about my foundation, two of which went along the lines of "blend it in" ...

Pros: Good coverage. A little goes a long way.
Cons: Expensive. Have to go inside Nordstrom to buy it!

About a year ago, a friend of my introduced me to MAC products. Her complex was absolutely flawless! I had to know what she used on her face. She says she loves MAC make-up. I didn’t even know what MAC was! I've always been the type of girl to get al ...

Pros: GORGEOUS matte finish, makes skin look immaculately flawless, oil-free
Cons: The sponge is useless, use MAC's 136 Large Powder Brush! :-)

OMG I have FINALLY found the perfect powder foundation! I've tried just about every powder foundation from drugstore brands to department store brands. MAC Studio Fix is by far, THE BEST powder and foundation I've ever used. (I wear a C40). It makes ...

Pros: variety of great shades, easy to apply, wonderful finish, great for oilier skins, non-acnegenic
Cons: can become cakey, expensive, not for drier skins. NEVER DROP IT!

Unlike other people who can find their exact foundation shade in the drugstore, I have to find mine in the department store. So, if I have to dish out the cash, it has got to be worth the purchase. Thank goodness for M.A.C! They make everybody look ...

Pros: Covers everything! Beautiful and flawless complexion.
Cons: A little cakey, maybe a little pricey too.

MAC Studiofix is great.

At first, I was reluctant to pay $22.50USD for foundation. But it blends so well with my skin, and so easy to use, that I am willing to part with my hard earned money.

Without make-up, my face is...

Pros: many shades
Cons: pricey

I have olive to tan skin. That's the best way I can describe my skin tone. Before finding MAC Studiofix (NC40 to be exact), I tried Prescriptives and Clinique. I don't know a thing about makeup either, so I thought that an expensive product from a ...
