not impressed!

I don't like this concealer at all, I tried liking it but Mac could of done a better job. I have it in NW20 for my under eye area. I dont have super dark circles and this dosent seem to fully cover. when I went into Mac i asked the artist that i wanted something hydrating but with good coverage and she suggested this. When she applied it it looked awsome but i did notice it took her a while to really blend it.The artist also said that this was similar to select moisture cover but with an "8 hour wear" pshh yea right! The concealer is almost a gel like liquid consistency. I find that the coverage is a sheer-moderate, and when you try to blend it it's easy to over blend and knock some off. I tried patting it with my ring finger and took me for ever. When i want to build up coverage it almost cakes up and definately settles in my fine/expression lines. The brush applicator is a nice thing but its soo easy to apply to much so you really have to be careful when applying it. After 3-4 hours i look in the mirror and you can start seeing my darkness. This concealer is for people with barely any darkness under their eyes or for anyone that has normal-dry skin. I can definately see this coming off on combo-oily skin ladies faces like mine (if you get it in the NC) So please save your $19 bucks and get yourself a better concealer or sample it first:)

love it!

Omg do I love this quad, I Usually try and stay away from premade quads since their quality has been bad lately. Well this one is amaizing! The colors are pigmented little effort to make em pop, great color pairing. I recebtly did a tutorial using this quad. It just screams spring & summer, cant wait to make more tutorials using this quad!!!

Mega Long lasting!

I have this foundation in 3W Tawny & honesly it's a little to dark for me. i Loose alot of color in the winter so the tawny becomes wayy to orange on me, for reference Im an NC25 very pale an ashy appereance. The consistency IMO is pretty thick & rich. It's much much heavier/thick than Studo Fix fluid. According to EL this a med-full coverage foundation but to me it seems like a super full coverage. anyway ..One good thing I can say is that it dosent oxidize in the summer at all, which is impressive considering alot of foundations do. My skin type is combination. I get alot of shine & oil on my T-zone and this foundation seems to withstand my oiliness. I can't say it controls oil but it definately fights & sord of creates a barrier. Of course it's mega super long wearing no freaken doubt about that which kinda scares me because during the holidays I was helping in cosmetics at my dept store (job) and I happened to help a very nice woman of color. I poured some foundation on the back of my hand color matched her and when it was time to remove the left over foundation, i had a huge stain on my hand. I sprayed alchohol, used the Take it away makeup remover, used other lines makeup removers washed my hand etc & it would not go away until I got home & took a shower with hot water i had to literally scrub and it went away. After that expirience Im kinda iffy about the foundation mainly because im scared like how do i know If it really came off my face? I couldn't imagine someone wearing this on a daily basis, our pores need to breath!.. anyway we all have different expiriences with things
