My MAC Favourites

Hey gals and guys,

Today i’ll tell you about my personal favourite MAC products and what products I think are a hit or a miss (based on my personal experience)

*Basically i’m someone who hates it when their foundation is super white or fairer than their actual skin tone (I usually get scolded by one of friends because I end up spending a lot on tanner or something a shade/tone darker than my skin)*

So I invested on a few mac products early this year!

Hits;

MAC Studio Fix Fluid spf 15

Studio Fix Foundation: NC25

So this foundation feels super light on your skin and this is the same exact shade as my skin tone, it might oxidise a bit but I rather have that look rather than a white pastry cake.No offence to anyone who likes their foundation lighter regardless of their skin tone.

I would use this when going out to meet friends or family gatherings. It can go on with a full coverage with the pro longwear concealer. So my shade in this foundation is NC25 but the concealer is lighter shade since it goes under your eyes to give a brighter effect.

The MAC studio fix foundation comes in a variety of shades for all the different kind of undertones. Finding the right shade might be a bit tricky if you haven’t used their foundation before. But their website has this camera thing which can help you find your right shade too, just make sure you have the right lighting when using that camera on their website. It gave me an accurate suggestion of the shade.

The plus point of this foundation is it has an spf too. Meaning somewhat protection from the harmful UV lights, which can cause skin damage or early ageing if not taken care of.

MAC Strobe cream

Shade: Pinklite

This is my greatest discovery of 2021! I don’t know why I hadn’t invested on this cream earlier *Better late than never*

This goes on perfectly well under my MAC Studio fix foundation and gives you that beautiful natural glow. Be it part of your daily makeup regime or some other gathering. It just makes your skin super glowy and soft.

My shade is Pinklite.

It has 5 shades in total:

  1. PinkLite
  2. Peachlite
  3. Redlite
  4. Silverlite
  5. Goldrite

Would definitely recommend this to someone who’s more into dewy or glowy looks.

MAC Pro Longwear waterproof eyebrow mascara

Eyebrow Mascara

So this was my first ever brow mascara back in 2016 *Currently i’m using Benefits Cosmetics gimme brow mascara instead*

But this was my favourite for quite sometime. Since I don’t like dramatic brows, just something soft and subtle. I don’t need eyebrow filling, so this mascara was just perfect for some touchup. But if you’re someone who fills their brows this can somewhat do the job since it’s tinted and it will give you some coverage in those thinner brows.

I have always loved brow mascaras because they’re super convenient and takes a minute or max 2 minutes to apply.

MAC Pro Longwear concealer

Shade: NC20

The only reason I invested on this was because I wanted brighter undereyes!

**Warning**

Before you apply a brightening concealer under your eyes always remember to color correct or else your undereyes will give a grey look and it looks awful in pictures with flash. You’ll end up looking like casper/ghost.

I use this once I have color corrected and applied my foundation. So this concealer is extremely full coverage and extremely thick. I hardly apply 2-3 dots under each of my each and blend it out. And later put on my setting powder (currently using Fenty Beauty Setting Powder)

The shade I got in this concealer was lighter than my foundation. I went for NC20, just for that pop of brightness under the eyes!

Miss;

MAC Prep and Prime spray

This product has been nothing but a complete disappointment. It’s not a primer nor is it a proper setting spray! It was a complete waste of money. It won’t lock in your foundation. You can use it on your eyeshadow brush but nothing more.

I have invested in Urban Decay all nighter instead and let me tell you the foundation or your makeup doesn’t even budge under the mask *thanks to this virus* so I always use the UD all nighter instead of this spray. Unfortunately my MAC Spray is just collecting dust on my dresser.

*Remember* guys your makeup only looks great if you have an amazing skin! Or else it will just look really bad and might even cause further harm to your inflamed skin. I know this weird autumn weather doesnt go well for our skin but keep yourself hydrated and have a good skin care routine ❤️
