MAC Cosmetics Face and Body Foundation

My overall rating

Overall, I really dig the my-skin-but-better illusion that MAC F&B;provides. It is a staple, albeit occasional product in my foundation wardrobe. Hence, you will find it in the butter compartment of my fridge. Not the most glamorous packaging...   +

Overall, I really dig the my-skin-but-better illusion that MAC F&B;provides. It is a staple, albeit occasional product in my foundation wardrobe. Hence, you will find it in the butter compartment of my fridge. Not the most glamorous packaging. Shade wise, F&B;offers a bit of flexibility as it lacks the opaque base of most foundations on the market (semi-translucent quality, I’d say). The consistency of F&B;is downright odd. It is water based so straight out of the bottle, the consistency is very liquid but you have a window of 30 seconds before the product starts to set, leaving you with a grippy/rubbery/sticky dilemma. I use my fingers and Beauty Blender to apply it, I found that the combination yields the best results. Once you’ve conquered the application, MAC F&B;is a beautiful product. I prefer it applied lightly for sheer coverage but you can let it set and apply another thin layer for medium coverage.    -
