which foundation is just Amazing!!???

Thread Starter 
so i bought MAC studio fix and this foundation broke out my face like a MADA*beep* .. i have never broke out this much ever! so i completely stopped using it ( a week ago) and my face has completely cleared! For the mean time i don't have any foundation (I'm only wearing my moisturizer and my concealer)
i have been hearing a lot about make up forever HD foundation that is so much better than MAC'S "any" foundations, MUFE is a little bit more pricey than MAC's foundation and i wanted to know if this foundation is really worth the money?
any advice... experiences... any recommendation appreciated.

I love SFF but when i run out, i will be purchasing the MUFE HD foundation. I have heard so many good things about it!

Ill probably get a sample first, but i need to use my SFF up first.

i know there is a thread someone on the site all about the MUFE HD foundation. you may want to look under cosmetic discussion..

OMG i just started using the MUFE HD foundation and its amazing.I think that u should stick to it even if its a little pricey. the end results are great and u know that you wont break out. I dont have a problem with MACs foundations...i've used their powder, studio mist, and liquid but the quality from MUFE is the best.

Sephora has it...I know I am in the minority on this...and price doesn't bother me when it's something I like...But MUFE did not work at all for me. It felt to heavy on my skin and we tried different versions. I love how it looks on everyone else but it felt just like cake on my face.

I stick to My Bobbi Brown Even Finish and Moisture Rich foundation...It is a little costly too..But it works for me.

I love MUFE!!! If you live close to Sephora I would suggest you get a sample try it out first. I love studio fix and never had a problem same with mufe foundations. Your skin just might be extra sensative so before shelling out I would get a sample by then again the great thing about sephora a money back guarantee ...you can't go wrong!

MUFE didn't work for me, either. None of the colors matched my skin tone. I'm pale, and they were all too yellow for me. They all had too heavy of coverage for me, too. I only want/need a light to medium coverage, and most of their foundations are full coverage.

I used to use Studio Fix Fluid and it broke me out horribly.
I stopped using it and started using MUFE HD Foundation, Powder, and Primer.
It's worth every cent I paid for it, seriously. I LOVE it.
<3 I would totally suggest it, especially if you had issues with Studio Fix.

I used SFF for awhile & it was always kinda orangy on me. Not a fan. I just got a sample of MUFE HD the other day & this is my second day wearing it. So far, I LOVE the coverage, LOVe the feel, LOVE the shade. But I would definitely recommend getting a sample at Sephora before buying the whole bottle just to test it on your skin for a few days to see if you like it.

Crow mineral makeup is my HD, but it's local, try MUFE f&B/mat velvet, or LM oil-free tinted moisturizer...the only things that don't make me break out!

I just got MUFE HD yesterday and wore it today. I think it is working out pretty well. I have very acne-prone skin so I'm waiting to see if it is going to break me out. I'll keep you posted on it.

I've found that prescriptives has good foundations also. They can also custom blend you a foundation to your liking but it cost like $60. I heard really great things about their customs blends. I've used their virtually matte and virtually flawless and really liked both of them. You might want to get some samples from prescriptives and MUFE.

I have seriously acne prone skin! its terrible . I used to use MAC's studio fix fluid, and it broke me out even worse but its the only foundation I ever liked. I recently switched to MUFE HD... and ohh my god, so fantastic. No break outs! I highly suggest it!

MUFE HD.. didn't break me out (MAC totally did uggh) and I actually get compliments on my skin.. which has never happened. I like to mix it with a little strobe liquid and set it with the HD powder. beautiful!!

My favorite foundation so far is NARS Oil-Free foundation. It's the only one that's been a perfect match for me.

I never tend to get along with Maybelline but I love their mineral foundation, I've even repurchased which is a rarity for me (always on the look out for something better). I use Rose Ivory which is the perfect pale shade, and it gives enough coverage without looking cakey or orange like some minerals do. Once applied, I use my buffer brush and it looks really natural and evenly covered.

Mac breaks me out too. Do you have a budget?

Would strongly recommend Chanel's Teint Innocence. Offers medium-heavy coverage while looking radiant.

Re: which foundation is just Amazing!!???

You should give MUFE a try! I've used quite a number of their foundations and have never been disappointed: Face & Body, Duo Mat, Liquid Lift (though I'm just 26, but I tried it for my mum) and the new High Definition. I liked all of them, but the HD is really amazing - it's easy to blend, wears well throughout the day (doesn't oxidize - MAC Studo Fix Fluid as well as Studio Fix Powder turned incredibly orange on me) and can be layered well without looking cakey. It's worth the price and the HD powder is the cherry on top!

Re: which foundation is just Amazing!!???

I really like MUFE. I have tried the HD and Mat+ foundations. I like both but if you have oily skin you should go for the Mat+ I really love it. It controls oil but doesn't dry out my skin. HD gives you more of a glow, something I definitely don't need because I am really oily. Both foundations are great because they look really natural and a little goes a long way. I was really reluctant to purchase such an expensive foundation but I don't need a concealer with Mat+, I just apply a little extra to certain areas. So its actually saved me some money because I don't need to buy concealer anymore.

Let us know how it goes when you try it out! Get color matched at Sephora and ask for samples to take home!
