I was not pleased with this Mac product. This was my first real foundation purchase that was not from target. I was so excited to use this foundation when I purchased it and I did use it for quite some time. I recently purchased a new foundation that made me realize how much this foundation was not the right one for me. This foundation I thought was rather orange on my face and made me break out quite a bit. For someone with sensitive skin, this may not be the foundation for you. I also felt as though this foundation made my face oily and that the makeup would separate on any oily patches of my face and peel away at my skin on the dry patches of my face. The coverage of the foundation was very well, nearly a full coverage foundation, which was pleasing. The design of the packaging was good and if you purchase a pump the amount will last quite a long time. 

Ok so I always felt that Mac would be heavy and Cakey looking but boy was I wrong. I have combo leaning more towards oily skin and this lasted all day with no transfer while feeling weightless. It actually took me trying a new foundation for the day then looking in mirror in horror while in car and driving to mall to buy a foundation so I didn’t look like a hot mess. I headed straight to Mac counter and tried bought this. For the first time ever my fiancé actually complimented me on my makeup which is huge!!! Color matching was a little hard as all MUAs were busy but best thing is the price. It so well priced for what is is and how well it works! Perfect match to pro longwear concealer!!! Would def recommend!

I used to use MAC studio fix and as I got older (aka began to get laugh lines), I found that too heavy. This foundation is like it's lighter sibling.

Pro:
Goes on medium coverage and is buildable to dull coverage.
The way the bottle is formed makes it great for travel.
Looks more on the natural side, even when built up.
Doesn't settle into pores or lines if face is properly primed.

Con:
Takes a long time to dry down. Doesn't dry down completely and needs to be set with powder.
Although I like the pump feature, it does tend to give more product than i need. And since there's no way to put it back in the bottle, I find it slightly wasteful.

When i first started using makeup i went to lancome the makeup there was great for my face just a little pricey. Then i would just buy drug store makeup which always made my face look pinkish and my undertones are already pink. I started using mac powder (they always gave me darker tones) with drugstore foundation. In november of 2014 i went to sephora for a color match they had me try out tarte amazonian clay which i totally disliked the feeling PLUS it was dark and orangish. I went back without any makeup since the last time i removed it there and my face tends to get red right away so that couldve distorted the match. This time the girl had me try one from marc jacobs which felt silky but was still too dark and orange for me. I finally decided to try mac's foundation and ask for a different powder and im satisfied with this foundation its finally light enough and matches my skin tone. I love how soft my face looks and feels.

I do like this foundation, but because I have oily skin I won’t be buying it again. I wanted to like this foundation more, but it doesn’t last that long for me. By lunchtime, I’m having to blot and retouch my makeup. I only wear this foundation if I know I’m only going to be wearing it for a couple of hours. If you have dry or normal skin, this may work for you. I recommend buying a pump to go with it though. You can waste a lot of product if you don’t have a pump.

This foundation is the BEST! This was my first more expensive foundation and I fell in love. Since then, I've tried about 3 other kinds of foundation and I always want to return to this. This is a great every day foundation and I use it with the studio fix powder on top. It does not look cakey or anything, several people have told me that my skin looks glowing. I don't have dry skin, just some acne and this sits very well with my skin. 

NEVER WOULD YOU EVER THINK THERE WOULD BE A WATERPROOF... FOUNDATION!!!!!! This foundation is HEAVEN SENT!! I wear it to summer weddings with no worries,, on the beach tanning and swimming!! It does transfer on to my phone screen though but with a tiny bit of elbow grease it comes off!! It's great stuff!!!

This foundation combined with the Urban Decay All Nighter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray = makeup that will stay on FOREVER. This foundation is the fullest of full coverage and has lasted with me through 12-hour shifts, music festivals, and even pool parties. It is, however, very thick and irritated my skin when I was using it daily. I would definitely recommend this for photos or big events but not everyday wear.

My skin is oily and doesn’t hold makeup well so I’ve tried all brands and types of foundations. This is the only one that stays put all day and leaves my face shine free from work through dinner. It’s very buildable and natural looking, especially if you use a beautyblender original makeup sponge. I will caution that it does break me out so I try not to use it every day, but the pros far outweigh the cons.

As a person who's always on a hunt for newness and looking for full coverage products within other brands. I must say nothing compares to pro longwear. Been using it for many years and there is not enough words to explain how much I love this foundation. It says what it does, full coverage, definitely long lasting as it stays put for a full day (12+ work hours) which Is amazing for someone who has oily skin. (I only have to blot or touch-up once a day but that's usually only during hot summer days) and has a beautiful matte finish. Will forever have this in my makeup bag and recommend for others to try.
