The MA said this foundation was for all skin types but this foundation felt way too heavy on my skin. I loved the tube and how easy it was to apply. I hated the way it felt, however. Just not the...

When I first bought this, I really really liked it a lot. I have dry skin and it is very creamy and gives great coverage. I wear NC32 and it is a perfect match. BUT what I really don't like about...

This foundation offers a lot of coverage, and as one reviewer said already, it really does make a great concealer. But it can also be too much. I used it under eyes, over blemishes, and around...

It goes on nice, smooth and pretty good looking, but every time I use this stuff- even if its just one night out- I have a pimple by the next day. I usually wear this with the studio fix concealer...

I went into Mac looking for a concealor and the MUA suggested this foundation. I am a NW20 and she suggested NC20 for my undereye circles and acne scars. It does a great job as a concealor. ...

I like how this lasted through my day. I tend to get oily later in the day, but with this foundation my skin had a nice natural looking matte-ish finish all day and I only blotted once. I think it...

I'm rewriting my previous highly favorable review. I like the way this foundation looks when it goes on, but it really magnifies dry, flaky spots on the skin. I use Renova, so I occasionally have...

This had lovely coverage. It really looked beautiful and it's so easy to use and portable too! But sadly, it broke me out, just like every other MAC foundation.

This foundation stick works quite good on me. Not too heavy as a cream. If I wear it alone, it's a bit too dry on my face (even though I put moisturizer first) Anyway, I fix this problem with mac...
