FAQs

What makes the new Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation different?

The remastered formula features a NEW! blurred-matte finish, NEW! 24-hour oil control, and NEW! refillable packaging. It also now comes in an expanded range of 78 color-true shades.

How do I choose my correct shade?

With 78 shades, it's recommended to swatch shades on your jawline or seek assistance from a MAC beauty advisor to find your perfect match, as existing shades may have changed due to the new formulation.

Is this product suitable for oily skin?

Yes, it is specifically formulated with 24-hour oil and shine control, making it an excellent choice for those with oily or combination skin types.

What kind of coverage does it offer?

It provides medium-to-full buildable coverage, allowing you to customize your look from a natural, diffused finish to a more perfected, full coverage appearance.

Can I use this as a setting powder over liquid foundation?

Yes, as a two-in-one foundation and setting powder, it can be used on its own or lightly dusted over liquid foundation to set it, provide extra coverage, and achieve a matte finish.

How long does the foundation last on the skin?

The product is designed for 24-hour wear with consistent oil control and fade-resistant, non-caking/non-creasing coverage. User testing indicated 94% found it smoothed and blurred imperfections after one week of use.

Does it feel heavy on the skin?

No, it features a breathable, lightweight formula with a silky, talc-free texture that is designed to feel comfortable on the skin all day. 96% of users in consumer testing reported comfortable wear.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears patchy or uneven.

Ensure skin is properly moisturized and prepped before application. Use a clean applicator (sponge or brush) and blend the product outward from the center of your face. For more opaque coverage, pat the product onto the skin rather than swiping.

Foundation looks too heavy or 'cakey'.

Start with a small amount of product and build coverage gradually. A lighter hand, especially in areas prone to creasing, can prevent a heavy look. For a sheerer finish, apply with a fluffy powder brush.

Product doesn't last all day.

While designed for 24-hour wear, ensure proper skin prep with a suitable primer. For extended longevity, consider lightly misting your face with a setting spray after application. The product's inherent oil control aids wear time, but external factors can influence it.

Shade doesn't seem to match my skin.

The formula has been remastered, meaning your previous shade might have changed. It is highly recommended to swatch a few shades on your jawline in natural light or seek assistance from a beauty advisor to find your perfect new color match.

Skin feels dry or uncomfortable after application.

Although 96% of users find it comfortable, ensure your skin is adequately hydrated before application, especially if you have dry areas. The talc-free formula is breathable, but a good skincare base is always key.
