Mac Mineralize Moisture Foundation Review

I have on shade NC-35

While it may shock some people however, despite having oily skin I found myself being very attracted to this foundation. It might have been the envious luminous glow that girls all over the online beauty world was raving about or it could simply be that I had lost my mind to want to try a moisturizing foundation. Either ways, I tried it and here is what I think about it.

First off, the packaging is so luxurious. Very similar to the Mac ProLongwear with the twist cap lock mechanism, but the bottle is frosted and has an hourglass shape (and who isn't attracted to that?). It just looks so superior to the other foundations on my vanity table. Moving on to the actual product, the ingredients like shea butter definitely provide hydration and I can understand how it can be a god sent for those with normal to dry skin types. It doesn't cling onto the skin and just looks lovely. Furthermore, it looks like a beautiful glow from within. The staying power is also not bad at all if paired with a good primer and setting powder. I'm definitely going to be saving this foundation for my fall and winter dry-skin days.

MAC Pro Longwear Compact Foundation SPF 20

Last week, in my morning grogginess as I checked my email, I pondered upon an email from MAC Cosmetics which almost made me jump up out of my bed in happiness (a little too dramatic? I think not!). The content of the email was intended to publicize the new Pro Longwear collection. But the real exciting news was the release of a new foundation - the Pro Longwear Compact Foundation. Being that the Pro Longwear Liquid foundation is my favorite foundation in the world (currently), it was only natural that the compact version sparked my curiosity.

Anyways, I ordered the foundation a couple of days later, in the shade NC-40 because I heard that the foundation runs lighter than its counterpart and that we should go up a shade. Usually I am an NC-35 but since there was no NC37 in this product, the next one up was the NC-40 (swatched below next to NC35).

My Youtube channel has the first impressions and demo of this product. I will review at a later date when I have more experience with this. But so far so good. The video can be found at:
