    Not for me. Many of my friends raved about it, but personally, not a good experience. Caused irritation, not a painful break out kind, though it did exacerbate a pimple I had, but it left the...

    Covers blackheads, doesn't look like you're wearing any makeup at all. Brilliant. Wears well - lightweight, designed to be reapplied. Great if you like to splash your face with water to refresh...

    I've been using MAC STUDIO SELECT for a couple weeks and I think that's it okay, but it just doesn't deliver on the more important levels; it's disappointing, really, considering that it's rather...
