The pro longwear cream compact is actually really nice though. I like it quite a bit more than the liquid counterpart. You don't have to work as fast, great coverage, doesn't feel as heavy. I hated the liquid for a long time but it photographs beautifully.

Personally I don't like prolongwear it kinda feels a bit heavy on me (and tends to break me out a bit) I can say I love studio fix because I feel like it lets my skin breathe (I have oily skin). It has spf in it and doesn't break me out, double win for me!

I agree. Studio sculpt is super heavy. It looks great on film but it's not a great every day foundation.

I didn't like studio sculpt. Too thick and made me cakey; also oxidized. I'm in love with Smashbox Studio skin foundation. It's got a normal finish, so it would probably work with oil skin. It just lays so nicely in my skin and stays all day. Swing by Seohora and get a sample!!

First of all, make sure you are using a moisturizer made for your skin type. I feel mac foundations are geared toward oily skin. Studio fix fluid is a great foundation for combination skin. Semi matte finish, long wearing. Pro longwear is another great option but I find that it wears better on oily skin and you have to work quickly with it or
It can look cakey.
I have never had a reaction to any Mac foundation.
