My top 5 M.A.C. Foundations

What I like about professional foundations is the fact that I can choose from multiple shades and textures, the formulas are really innovative and long lasting, suitable for photo-shoots, but also for daily use. Working a while for M.A.C. gave me the chance to know in depth the products, to test them on many skin types and receive clients reviews. There is no wonder M.A.C. is one of the best sold make-up brands in the world, because in many cases they are ahead of market trends and exceed customer expectations. Here are my top 5 favorites:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1 Studio Fix Fluid SPF15

• silicone based formula, full coverage, flawless matte finish

• a great choice for people with combination to oily skin that are looking for impeccable coverage that doesn’t look cakey and stays matte during the day; like all M.A.C. foundations this one is also buildable, so if you apply a small amount you will obtain medium coverage

2 Studio Sculpt SPF15 Foundation      

• cream-gel based formula, medium to full coverage, natural finish

• with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, shea butter and vitamin E, it feels super moisturizing from the first application and increases hydration after 4 weeks of use ; especially suitable for dry, normal or mature skin

3 Face and Body Foundation

• water based formula, sheer buildable coverage, dewy finish

• particularly good for dry to normal complexions, it creates a water-resistant film on the skin after application and feels really comfortable, due to it’s emollient ingredients (available in 50ml and 120ml packages)

4 Matchmaster SPF15 Foundation

• silicone based formula, medium buildable coverage, demi-matte finish

• a true match for combination to oily skin, this one absorbs excess oil, minimizes the appearance of pores, leaving behind just nude perfection

5 Pro Longwear Foundation

• silicone based formula, medium coverage, natural finish

• an incredibly long-wear, lightweight foundation, it resists up to 15 hours without creasing or fading; perfect solution for extended photo shoots, hot climates, bridal looks or for people with fast-paced work environment, this one is suitable for all skin types.
