Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation - MAC

While the Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation offers a blur-matte finish and oil control, its breathable, talc-free formula is comfortable. For dry skin, ensure thorough moisturization and consider using a hydrating primer underneath. It can also be used lightly as a setting powder over a liquid foundation.

With such a wide range, it's best to test shades directly on your jawline and observe them in natural light. Due to the remastered formula, your previous MAC shade might have changed. Visiting a MAC counter for a professional shade match is highly recommended.

The MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation is primarily designed for dry application. While some users experiment, its optimal performance for its intended blur-matte finish and oil control is achieved when applied dry with a sponge or brush.

Yes, the product comes in new, innovative refillable packaging. Once you have used up the powder, you can purchase a separate refill pan to easily insert into your existing compact, making it a more sustainable choice.

It offers medium-to-full buildable coverage. This means you can apply a light layer for a natural look, or build up the product for more complete coverage without it feeling heavy or caky.

The formula is designed to immediately reduce the appearance of pores and is breathable. While individual results vary, its talc-free composition and non-caking properties aim to provide a smooth finish without emphasizing or clogging pores.

Ensure your skin is well-prepped and moisturized before application. Apply with a lighter hand, starting with a small amount. For sheerer coverage, use a fluffy brush; for a more blended look, a damp sponge can help. Build coverage gradually as needed.

Start with a clean, prepped face, possibly using an oil-control primer if you have very oily skin. Apply a thin, even layer of foundation. For extremely oily areas, gently blot with blotting paper during the day instead of adding more powder to prevent buildup.

The formula has been remastered, which might affect how shades appear compared to the previous version. It's highly recommended to re-evaluate your shade. Try testing shades on your jawline in natural lighting or consult a MAC professional for an accurate match from the 78 available options.

Ensure your skin is properly hydrated, especially in areas prone to fine lines. Apply a lighter hand in these areas and try pressing the product into the skin rather than buffing. A smoothing primer can also help create an even canvas.
