But overall I am so happy I switched over to MAC for my foundation. I mean I still use my setting powder and setting spray, so that definitely has an effect.
HOW TO USE MAC PRO LONGWEAR FOUNDATION SKIN
I’ve talked about my oily skin before, and this foundation for my skin really works. Pro Longwear is $40, which I think is awesome. The old one was $52, which gets expensive buying it basically every 3 or so months. Bonus: I saved $12 by buying this foundation. I was in and out of MAC with my new foundation within 15 minutes (I also bought a concealer and it’s amazing). I find this amazing because they had a really hard time with this at Sephora even with their little skin tone matching machine. So instead I went into MAC and found the exact colour of my skin tone. I returned it the next day to a different Sephora and got my regular brand. So she recommended one and it looked fine in their lighting, but when I got home and wore it the next day out in daylight I realized my face looked yellow. So I told the sales assistant I couldn’t leave without a foundation because there was literally nothing left in my current bottle. And this was big for me because once I went into Sephora to buy my usual brand and they were out of stock. Two weeks later I noticed that when I pumped the foundation that I was currently using onto my hand that it seemed like it was running out, so this time I did not go to Sephora. She knew that if it had that kind of effect on me then she had to get it.
My friend bought after she heard me gasp.
The match to her skin tone was absolutely amazing. The sales assistant that was helping my friend found her colour right away and when she tested it on her face I actually gasped (like no lie). Cons: I wish this came in a paler shade so I could get a more perfect match. Pros: Lasts 10 hours according to MAC, 8 hours on my oily skinstill respectable wear time Didn’t irritate my sensitive skin The matte finish banishes oil so well you can skip powder. In my opinion Sephora needs to step it up). MAC Pro Longwear SPF 20 Compact Foundation in N18, NW25, NC15, NC35. We got served instantly (both times I’ve been the service has been amazing. But she wanted a new foundation and had heard good things about the Pro Longwear. I was at the MAC store with my friend, which was odd for me because I’m a Sephora person. Clearly if I can switch up my foundation brand and everything was fine then every other switch is just minor compared to this one. It creates an even skintone cover some scars, blemishes, whateva you dont want the person next to you to notice Now obviously you cannot cover a bump or the texture on you face but at least get the redness out. As seen with my other reviews lately that has been changing, and now that I think about it this foundation was actually big change number one. Foundation is the most important in my book. If it’s working for me then I stick with it. So like I’ve previously said a few times, I’m not big on switching up my products.
