MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation Review!

Today I thought I'd share a review on one of my favourite foundations, MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation!

I had slight trouble getting this foundation as the lady at the counter matched me to the completely wrong shade! So I went back and got someone else to match me to a far better shade, NC15.

MAC Studio Fix Fluid, NC15
I have been road testing this foundation for the past week, and so far, so good! 

Coverage - This has a medium to full coverage as it is easily buildable. If a lighter coverage is wanted I used my Real Techniques sponge (which is amazing, may I add!) to blend in the foundation to make a flawless finish. 

Finish - The finish of this foundation is semi-matte so it is perfect for oily skins (like me!). It leaves the skin looking quite powdery but after an hour, it leaves a nice look to the skin. This keeps my shiny nose not looking shiny straight after I've finished my entire face of makeup, which is a massive bonus for me. 

Formula - The formula is quite thick but not too thick for me. If you've tried the revlon colour stay, it's very similar to that. 

Other - I've never been one to comment on a smell of a foundation but this one literally smells of paint, it doesn't bother me too much as I really do love this foundation. 

Just a side note, I've heard many people to break out from this foundation and many other MAC bases  so I'd be a bit weary when buying one. I haven't had any problems. 

Overall I'm really enjoying this foundation and would recommend it to anyone with oily/combination skin. 

Do you think you'll be trying this out, or have you already got one in your collection? Let me know in the comments.
