Studio Fix Liquid + Loose Blot Powder
OH MY GOD! Just got these in today -

Let me tell you, I've found a new HG! First of all, you need to know that I've NEVER worn foundation, because they all make me feel like I'm wearing a mask...NOT THIS ONE!!!

And the powder..oh the powder! So perfect, even BE can't compare.

If you haven't ordered this, do! I love it!

I got the compact blot powder today but I was debating on the loose or compact. But anyway.. the MA applied it on and OMG... no more shine. I am a greasy girl.. lol.. sad but true and it's been about 1 hr. so far and no shine yet.

i never liked the idea of liquid foundation but omg liquid fix is so amazing. sooo light and velvety. can barely even notice anything on my face. i have the blot powder in the compact form so i thought i wouldnt get tempting by the loose version but wow. it is so finely milled that when you stick your finger in the powder you literally can't feel it. like air i'm telling you. i have peach fuzz so it kinda makes me look powdery but nothing a little spritz of fix+ can't remedy. i'm in love.
but if you're gonna get definitely get checked for color because it runs a little different. i'm a studio tech nc30, fix c4 and liquid fix nw25 hahaha but the blot was the same, both medium.

OMG... stop talking, stop talking! lalalalalalala.... I don't hear you!

Okay, I do. I just bought a boat load of Pure Luxe convinced that liquid foundation and my face will never be friends. Now I am hearing all these good things about it. Y'all know that I am going end up with it... I have to try it.

Jude,

Mineral Makeup is good for the skin. I have not had a serious breakout since I used mineral makeup. I am acne prone skin and have very bad acne scars. I only use liquid and cream foundation on special ocassions. You made a good choice.

I am OBSESSED with this new foundation! It really is amazing. I'm liking the Loose Blot a lot, too, though it runs LIGHT-- I'm PPP and the Medium is perfect on me.

Let's just hope the SF Fluid doesn't break me out... if it doesn't, definite HG status for me. I'm planning on mixing it with Strobe Cream next time for a dewier look, so we'll see how that works.

FWIW, I find the loose a lot less chalky. It's better for setting makeup... The pressed is okay for touchups, though.

I just came home with a Studio Fix Liquid in NW25 and Loose Blot Powder in Medium Dark and a new 187. This is hands down, the nicest liquid foundation that I have ever tried. It gives me such a smooth makeup type and it blends seamlessly for me. I am going to wear it for a week and see how it goes with the oilies and makeup seperation. That is the biggest issue that I have with mineral makeup. By 3:00 my forehead is an oil slick and the powder starts to break up.

Pure Luxe is the best mineral makeup that I have ever tried, especially in dealing with the oil issue but I still get some slickies :/

Let's see how the Studio Fix Liquid works out.

Absolutely. The loose is silkier and it just disappears on the skin.

I am loving the Studio Fix liquid...I sold it to every customer I had today!! I found, though, that the colors are running a little light (at least for me)...I nromally wear NW 20-23 or an N4 and NW 20 was too light on me...I have to use NW 25 and it looks perfect (every other product that's NW 25 is too dark on me)

I have to agree. . .I absolutely LOVE the StudioFx Liquid and with the Loose Blot powder, it is perfection! Finally MAC has a foundation and powder for us who don't have dry skin. (my skin is like an oil rig and this stayed matte or dewy all day. select spf ain't got shit on this stuff.) It feels baby soft too.

My only complaint? Even the NC15 is freakin' dark! The lightest colour is a half-shade darker than my neck. So, yeah, increasing the colour range would be wonderful. but I'll be there in about a week anyway with tanning, so it's all good. but there are a lot of girls even lighter than me (I wear NW20 in the Select SPF), so I know everybody isn't going to be able to be matched in this.

the NW is darker than the NC this time...in general. normally I wear an NW, but I had to wear the NC because the NW was way too dark.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not finding the NC15 dark at all... and I am very fair. It's a perfect match-- even in natural light (believe me, I checked and re-checked a couple times to see how it was wearing & whether or not it oxidized).

Dude, I got a bottle of this stuff today! BUT

I got the Studio Fix Fluid in NC 44, and a Studio Touch-Up Stick in NC 45.. is that right?

ALSO how do you wear concealer and foundation together? which goes first?

I asked for a sample today and the MA gave me NC20 and NC25. I just tried NC20 two hours ago and the color match is perfect and I only needed a bit to cover my whole face. I normally wear NC20 in Select Tint and Select SPF. I hope Studio Fix Fluid doesn't break me out because I think this might just be my HG.
