Girl, you don’t even need concealer. I’m so jelly 😅! I’m so happy you like the new formula because I really want this foundation.

Shelly, you are so dang cute,funny and just such fun to listen to and watch. Viva Las Vegas! I use to spend sooo much time there. I pulled a 42’ 5th wheel and always parked at SAMS. I do not gamble, but I sure loved to go bowling 🎳. And my bestie and her 4 kiddos lived there. I miss traveling so much. 😢. The Mac foundation looks beautiful on you. Loved your eyeshadow look. Thank you for making time out of your Vegas Trio to bring us another great Foundation Review. I hope you get some much needed, restful sleep. Enjoy the rest of your trip, and have lots of furniture for me. Be safe. Oh, would you consider doing an updated “ Favorite Foundations and why Video for dry, dehydrated, more mature skin? I am on the hunt for a Holy Grail Foudnation for my dry, dehydrated more mature skin. Thank you sweetie

@amystanley3434 8 дней назад

I'm glad it's not just me! I went to be shade matched at Mac recently and told them I was NW20 (my last match) - the assistant laughed as she put NW13 on my jaw and showed me that even that was a hair too dark! (Ended up with N4.75, which is perfect)

@Alexandriandria 2 месяца назад

Mac is gonna hafta start going into the negative numbers to make foundations that are light enough for us pale folks, my word. Thank you for all you do

@marissac713 2 месяца назад

They finally have new and pale enough shades in this new version of Studio Fix and also Studio Radiance! NW5 and NC5 are the lightest and there's even more shades between those and NW15. Nic pale and freckled here on RU-vid has a recent video showing swatches of the new NC5 vs old NC5. I have NW5, for shade reference I wear EL Double Wear in 0N1 and Too Faced BTW in Cloud.

@goow Месяц назад

GOSH that is tough. I'd probably have both because the RdF is this super-lightweight formula which is what I want sometimes, and the Polite Society is this phenomenally blurring look... so I'd say, whichever is more important to you, go that way. RdF would be practically weightless feeling with nice coverage and PS would be a blurred glowy finish but not as lightweight (not heavy - just the RdF is phenomenally lightweight). Both perform great throughout the day so it's a tie there.

Hehe ahhh man, that hotel room! Noted in my mind. Nice review, thanks! If your shopping proceeds, try the Ciele tint, blush, powder and bronzer. I went for it in the Sephora sale and can't stop using it. Not just the physical SPF but the products are beautiful and don't burn or break me out.

@SarahMcAshan 2 месяца назад

Why did MAC do this with their shades? NW15 is completely different in the new formulas (this one and the serum foundation or whatever it's called). I'm NC13 or NC15 in the older formulas; I don't think I'll risk this new range. I'd look like an Oompa-Loompa in that shade you have there! The finish on this formula is indeed lovely, though, and I'm impressed at the longevity. I feel you on the instant dehydration, when I'm visiting family in Colorado I can drink 4 liters of water a day and still be dehydrated. If I lived there I'd have to learn how to give myself an IV bag of fluid every day 😬

@goow Месяц назад

Yeeeeeup. It's such a bummer. It used to be that everyone knew their shade in MAC because all of the shades across their products were consistent. Not anymore. Both this one and the serum one are too dark in my usual NW15. I exchanged the serum for NW13 and it is better but not as good as the old NW15 was for me.

@gategirl66 2 месяца назад

I love Freemont Street! Thanks for the review. The other day I actually watched your old video of the original formula because I'd been eyeing this one 👍 Have fun in Vegas!🎉

Yes, DEFINITELY make lip gloss. With flavors. ☺️💖 I absolutely love your personality & talks/humor in your videos, it makes me like I’m there. I mentioned in previous video comments please review the Makeup Forever HD skin glow foundation. I have it & like it. Curious if it works for you. You are the one that got me hooked on Makeup Forever Reboot used it for a few years.

@beachfrost3367 2 месяца назад

Wow, that view is gorgeous! Pizza Rock looks amazing, the salad looked awesome! I totally get it about not wanting to have to pee while traveling. Now that I'm in perimenopause, I swear my bladder has gotten so much worse most likely from hormonal fluctuations that I cannot hold in my pee anymore.🤷‍♀️ While traveling, I also limit my fluid intake to avoid having to stop to go to the bathroom. Ugh, such a pain. When I get to my destination, I swear, I feel like spongebob when he had no water.🤣 I think the Mac foundation looks beautiful. The Studio Radiance version looked beautiful too. Why they darkened the NW15, I do not know, that is ridiculous. The good thing is that it still looked beautiful on and didn't make a difference. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip. I think a color changing PH lip gloss would be a lot of fun. I've never used one but would surely try it!👍

@fairlady5117 2 месяца назад

That was also my most favorite foundation as it would give a satin finish. It looks like this one resembles more of that foundation than the original studio fix. I could not find anything like pro long wear yet.

Love the finish of the foundation - stunning, I couldn’t see on top of your skin. May have to take a wander into town to pick up a tester. Colour, not so sure - looked almost orange on the swatch and couldn’t tell properly on your face with the hotel bathroom lighting. The lipstick looked really good though, gorgeous.

@goow Месяц назад

It tastes pretty much the same since really most of what it tastes like is the spices! But the vegan versions still haven't gotten the oil/grease part which does contribute to the overall taste I think. Most vegan "meats" are drier and don't get that nice greasy fried bit on them.

I also don’t drink much when I fly because I’m someone that goes to the bathroom a lot as it is. I also have anxiety about having to go at times when you’re not allowed to like when fasten seatbelt sign is on. So, I try to go right before getting on the plane and about 20-30 min before landing. Anyway, they have studio fix compact powder so this is the studio fix fluid :)

@cristalcox 2 месяца назад

Hi! What's the best full coverage foundation that looks luminous or less dry looking? I'm mid 40's, dry skin with melasma. Thanks in advance!

@goow 8 дней назад

I love the Haus Labs foundation, Guerlain Terracotta, and NARS Light Reflecting. The new Polite Society falls in this bucket too though I haven't worn it for as long as the others. They all build up really well to a near-full coverage and all are hydrating and have a more luminous finish. The new Make Up For Ever Hydra Glow is even more luminous and has great coverage (but definitely dewy).

@valeriegirodon6976 Месяц назад

This foundation is it better than dior face and body?!I m dry and need a foundation for summer ? Thank you.❤❤❤😊

@goow Месяц назад

I'd say the Dior is a little bit more lightweight, but they're about equal performance. If you already have the Dior I don't think you need the MAC, but if you don't have either, the MAC is less expensive (but a little higher coverage, if you prefer lower).

If you mean literal environment, I don't think my dehydrated dry self could ever live in the desert! Even spending 5 days there wrecks me 🤣 If you mean like societal environment, I've only been there as a tourist and almost always staying on the strip, so I only really have tourist exposure. It's the kind of environment where I don't think I'd ever bring kids under 18 (though tons of people do) but I enjoy the heck out of a little debauchery 🤣 Vegas is where I go to party and gamble, so... take that as you will!

I thought your older studio fix was NW10?

@goow Месяц назад

It was - I'm usually between the NW 10/13/15 but now that 15 is so dark I'm probably never actually NW 15 in their new formulas. I usually use NW 15 in my swatch comparisons as it used to suit me best for most of the year. I swatched this in the store but of course I always forget how bad the lighting is.
