REVIEW: MAC face & body foundation.

Wearing face & body foundation.

For years the only foundation I used was the Pro long wear foundation by MAC. Starting up this Blog & changes in my skins needs & wants made me venture out to try out different foundations. The prolong wear foundation is a very long lasting foundation for me it doesn't move all day. However it is a medium to full coverage & you can feel it on your skin. The feeling on my skin didn't bother me so much but I never felt I needed the full coverage it gave, but I didn't want to compromise how long lasting it was on the skin.

For the last year I have been mixing the Pro longwear foundation with strobe cream to change the semi matte finish to a sheer glowly finish. But then friend told me about how she loves her Face & body foundation by MAC for everyday, she claimed that it was really sheer coverage but lasted on her skin all day. So I had to try it out.

What did I think of it?
This foundation is the prefect everyday foundation.
I love it. It just glides on the skin leaving a gorgeous natural dewy finish. This foundation goes from very sheer coverage to medium coverage depending on how you build it & what brush you use to apply. It is very easy just to give the skin a flawless tint of colour using a stippling brush, or build it up to a medium coverage using a flat topped kabuki brush and pressing it onto the skin. It gives the skin a slightly dewy finish which I have been loving lately without it looking sweaty. I have dry skin so I don't set this foundation with a powder but If you are oily I would recommend setting this foundation with a powder especially in the places you would commonly get oily through out the day. 

Does it last all day?
Yes, I think the foundation is very long lasting I don't usually have much issues with foundation lasting however.  With this foundation I don't even have to use a primer or set it with a powder & it lasts all day for me. I will still use my prolong wear foundation on nights out, & on really long  busy days I will mix a drop of my pro long wear foundation in with this foundation mainly for that little bit more coverage & lasting power.

Who will love this foundation?
  • Dry to normal skinned people will love this foundation
  • People who want a 'their skin but better' look will love this foundation.
  • Its a great one for a makeup artist to have in their kit for mixing with other foundations.
  • Someone looking for their first foundation.
  • Someone who wants a glow from their skin.


Let me know what you think of this foundation yourself.
