I own MAC products? Wow it's like a dream (sorta) Anyway my Tita and her family were going to Duty Free today, I was only supposed to go to school but i asked my mom if we could tag along. I heard of the MAC booth in duty free from Project Vanity. I just had to check it out >_< I mean ever since my mom's friend bought her Mac products I've kinda been hijacking her studio fix and mineralize blush. It's just so picture perfect! *A*
edit: Lol I kept NC and C are diff >_<! I didn't know there was a difference. XD;; N00by lol thanks Lala. So my mom uses C40 : o and I got NC stuff mmm
When i first got interested in buying makeup my mom bought me VMV Hypoallergenics. (This was after me breaking out from trying Nichido and a bunch of other drugstore products OTL) That was probably the most serious burn I've bought for foundation. Second would be Kanebo's Freshel Liquid Foundation. VMV was too.. pasty somehow on my skin, I believe I have very strong yellow undertones. When I found Kanebo I was very happy the price burn was about 900 pesos not as bad as VMV. Ok correction my mom bought them.
As I was saying we went to Duty Free a while ago before going to school and we stopped by the MAC booth. I'm not really good with my skin tone or color or whatever. I only guess, based from the info I've gathered and read online, that I'm a combo to oily skin tone and that i have acidic skin? So the lady said, you're definitely a NC25.
When you say NC25 I think of all those really white people. But I remember from DustyHunter's MAC foundation guide that different MAC products will tend to have different shades even if they're labeled the same from one line.
I first looked at the Studio Sculpt Foundation. I wanted a liquid foundation because in all honesty I think i'm killing my face with the mineral foundation. Don't get me wrong I think Ellana and Mineral Foundations are nice but it just feels... Heavier to me. I think my Ellana ones make me look too white anyway. And well my logic is that liquid foundations are more portable and less messy.
I seem to have a problem with my pores getting clogged a lot. I'm not sure if it's from the makeup or the moisturizer or both so i wanna try something that won't aggravate them as much.
Anyway sorry for the tl;dr. The Studio Sculpt Liquid Foundation looks like this. Quite yellow.
It blends well in the back of my hand. (Then again most foundations do)
I didn't get to try it on my face because i was already wearing makeup. The duty free trip was like sudden and woah. Anyway here's the burn for that product.
MEOWCH, but i mean it's cheaper compared to buying it at the counter in MOA.
Here's an ingredient list!
Next I have the Studio Fix Powder
I always ended up hijacking my mom's NC40 studio fix powder to counteract the whiteness of my Ellana. I'm really impressed by the coverage of this powder. Since well there are so many things I want to hide, like my eyebags.
So yea, it looks like this. I think it matches my color well. I don't think I'm that light really.
If ever i got this color and it will hopefully counteract any unhappy washed out look that i might get from super white foundation.
So yea, there's a top tier for the powder and a bottom that contains the sponge. I doubt I'll be using the sponge though.
Price burn! I saw studio fix foundations being sold at the store in the lrt station connecting to Umall in Taft. They sold it for 2k I wonder if anyone can tell me if it's legit.
Anyway that's about it really. I don't know if I should review these but the brand speaks for itself.
Anyway that was a long post and I'm sleepy. Have a pic of me looking like a normal person : )
Love my Bear~
