  Pros

  The adhesion is quite high The coverage is good Layering is also well done It feels like putting on a better layer of skin I've been using it for years

  Cons

  It's inconvenient because there's no pump. The color system is a bit complex.

  Tip

  Just because the MAC number goes up, it doesn't necessarily mean it gets darker. It's true that the colors get darker from NC30 to 35 to 38 to 40, but there are also colors in between that have different tones, and some are even brighter than 30 (like 37). If the color doesn't suit you, you can mix it with pink-toned shades to make it a more natural tone. Mixing it with Double Wear is the best combination.

  Pros

  I have a skin tone darker than the darkest shade 23 available in the market, so finding the right color is already a narrow choice for me. However, this product not only matches my skin tone perfectly, but also excels in coverage, application, and longevity. Additionally, there is no darkening effect.

  Cons

  The pump needs to be purchased separately. The scent is not particularly pleasant. Looking at the ingredients here, it doesn't seem like there's anything inherently bad, but it might be due to the packaging smell.

  Pros

  I've tried many different MAC foundations, and each one has its own advantages. However, the Studio Fix Fluid stands out for its excellent longevity and coverage. The shade range is also very diverse, so it's suitable not only for people with darker skin like me, but also for those who are tanned. As someone with very oily skin, I often find that foundations tend to break down easily. But when I use the Studio Fix Fluid along with the Porefessional and NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer, it creates an incredibly long-lasting and flawless base.

  Cons

  While the coverage is great, the formula is quite heavy and can feel a bit thick on the skin. You may not be able to achieve the same transparent, skin-like finish or fresh, lightweight feel that you'd get from products like MAC's Mineralize or Next to Nothing. Of course, for those who need the extra coverage, this may not be an issue. But if you're looking for a more natural, 'your skin but better' look, it might be a bit challenging.

  Tip

  1. Start by using the Porefessional to minimize the appearance of pores, then apply the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer to cover any major blemishes. After that, apply the foundation as your base. Finish with concealer and powder for maximum longevity. 2. Apply the foundation using a MAC foundation brush or a similar dense, synthetic brush from Olive Young. Then, use a silicone sponge to blend and smooth the product for a seamless, even complexion.
