Amazing
This is my favourite foundation at the moment! I've used a lot of high end & Drug store foundations, this comes in close to the top. Its creamy without being to much for my combination oily skin it sits perfect for hours (although I've never used with a setting powder). Up to now I'm impressed & Will purchase again.

good coverage
This foundation is very good at hiding redness and imperfections as it has a medium coverage but I find (on my oily skin) it looks a bit dry and flaky. I like the matte finish but it's hard to work with so I try to mix it with a bit of moisturizer so I can even it out over my face easier. I have found many times this to look a bit orange/yellow on my skin, especially in photos which is disappointing for a MAC product. However, I will carry on using it and hopefully it will look better over time...
AAAAAAAH
This was an awful experience. While the lady who matched me was very nice, the color was way too dark. It was also very cakey looking on my skin, and not only did it break me out in pimples, it gave me hives! I gave it to my mother, and she loves it. I think that if you have sensitive skin (like me) and an allergy to sulfates (which it has and I am allergic to), you should go for something else
Good, but...
I gotta say, with a primer and a dusting of setting powder, this looked really nice. The only downsides are 1. it sets too fast. This caused me to actually mix it with a bit of moisturizer to allow myself some more blending time... I'd say take your favorite oil based moisturizer and use a 35% moisturizer 65% SFF. remember, oil and water don't mix so don't go using any water based moisturizer or you'll completely destroy the integrity of the foundation. 2. it's far, far too dark! Even their lightest shade is just tooo dark! But I can say this for A LOT of makeup companies. Apparently, us porcelain alabaster skinned people just don't exist in the pigment laboratories of M.A.C and other companies. 3. because of the consistency, if this comes off, it will make you look blotchy. I dare not wear this without a primer which means when you go to refill, you refill your primer too... which seems like it may run out faster than my foundation actually. I use the Prep + prime by MAC and I love it, but it's not cheap. I also would hate to be heartbroken to use it without a primer and see breakthrough (oil breaking through the makeup) and breakouts from this product. I like it too much, and besides, I'm 32, so I can afford to use some primer. so... Meh.
Cons.. too dark, dries too fast, old-school foundation smell
Pros.. good staying power, nice matte finish (but forget about it lasting 8 hours... more like 4, so bring blotting tissue) Can look cakey if you build coverage and then powder, so use a GOOD blending brush
Bible!
I swear by this stuff... Bible!! It is the BEST, flawless, stay-put, never-fade, never-fail foundation! For years I have been trying to get the right colour/consistency for my skin, and only recently found this one thanks for a MAC make up artist. She applied it to my skin and I had to stare in the mirror to try and find it.... and i still could not see it! And the rest is history. It works brilliantly with a primer, and when mixed with MAC Strobe Cream, leaves the most sheer, just glowy look. I will NEVER be without this product. Very expensive, but an absolute investment and a little goes a long way. Thanks MAC!!!
Good
I love the matte finish on this. It keeps oil in place and looks good with the prep and prime on top. I use a thin layer of this on normal days because it makes my skin look a bit better than using a BB cream. I'm a singer in a choir, so for shows I use a good amount of this. It helps the skin look less washed out and more perfected with the horrible stage lights our director makes us perform under. I try not to wear it everyday though, because it is silicone based and can I want my skin to breathe a bit.
Perfect coverage!
This is the best foundation I think you can buy, good for normal skin types. If you use the pump with it, it takes 2 full pumps to get absolute full coverage of the face. It lasts a long time per bottle. It lasts all day an night. Would deffinetly recommend this product.
#1 foundation
This is my go to foundation it covers amazing and gives me a matte finish witch I adore. It's last a long time on the skin (until I remove it) I like to set it with a light translucent powder to extend the wear. Mac also has a nice array of colors to suit many skin tones witch I love because being a deeper toner many foundations can make me appear ashy or to red so to have a foundation that fits my undertone flawlessly is amazing.
