MUFE or MAC foundation?

Hands down MUFE.

MAC foundations are not suitable for my oily and sensitive skin, as I have experienced a few years back.

MUFE all the way. For some reason all MAC foundations I have tried have seriously broken me out and it takes me forever to get my skin clear again.

MUFE, the things a Mac foundation does to my skin

SAME HERE!! It was the very first foundation i tried, and i thought my skin was the problem... Then i tried MUFE and never looked back.

I've only had 2 liquid MAC foundations so far (Matchmaster and Pro Longwear) and neither one broke me out. Its easy to overdo it and apply too much b/c they are a bit thick. If you like a powder foundation, or extra coverage over liquid the Studio Finish Powder is great.

MUFE HD melted on me in the first 4 hours. No amount of blotting or powder could have my face. I'm thinking of picking up MAC Face & Body but the MUFE was soooo bad that I'm hesitant.

MAC, I loved in the beginning; but after 15 or so years in, it's not the same. My skin is just different and requires another family of products. MUFE Face and Body is perfect. I use Becca's primer first and set with a powder. My skin looks and feels amazing when I wear it. I prefer MUFE's color range as well. Im still a big fan of MAC's MSFN. That's a beautiful product.

I would recommend MUFE Mat Velvet + if you are interested in anything similar to the MAC Studio Finish foundation. It leaves a beautiful matte finish and is perfect for oily skin. I have oily skin so to works great for me. I remember using the Mineralize Skin Finish a long time ago and i think you actually might enjoy the Mat Velvet +.

MUFE HD foundation is definitely better than any MAC foundation that I've ever used and I've used just about all of them...

I also love both brands and I wear both brands regularly. But if I only got one foundation for the rest of my life I would definitely go with MUFE. I think MUFE is ahead of the game in terms of formulation and technology, and it looks much better in photos compared to MAC. MAC is catching up, as I think their 2 most recent foundations (Studio Sculpt and Pro Longwear) have been their best by far. Most all MAC foundations broke me out in the past (I'm looking at you, Studio Fix Fluid!), but that hasn't been the case with their newer foundations. However, there isn't a foundation that I would NOT recommend from MUFE. They are ALL of exceptional quality, whereas there are several MAC formulas that I would definitely stay away from! But obviously, when it comes to foundation it really depends on the individiual's needs and skin type. Your mileage varies so much with foundation, so the best thing to do would be to try it out first if you can. Just because I think MUFE have the best foundations currently available on the market doesn't mean that you will find one that works for you!

My first recommendation would be to try MUFE HD, its the best all-around formula IMO. If you feel the coverage is lacking, you could mix it with a small amount of concealer. But If you have dry skin, you might want to also try MAC Studio Sculpt. Good luck in your search!
I could'nt agree with you more, I recently bought the MUFE HD foundation and I must admit it looked really good and flawless. Also in photos particularly, Flash it doesn't show up looking caked. For me i will continue to use it. However if you have a pretty clean face maybe slight blemishes and so on, it will be ideal for you. But if you have serious skin problems and require a heavy coverage to conceal your skin issues then MUFE HD probably won't be the right choice. When i used the MUFE HD before i applied it i used some light concealer under my eyes otherwise I don't need much concealer.

I can only reach for this when I've been really taking care of my skin... If not I will definitely reach for something else personally, just adding my 2 cents lol
