FAQs

How do I choose the right shade?

Visit a MAC store for a professional shade match, or use their online shade finder tool. Consider your undertone (warm, cool, or neutral) when selecting a shade.

How long does the powder last?

The staying power of the powder can vary depending on skin type and environmental factors, but it generally provides several hours of wear with oil control.

Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?

While the formula is generally well-tolerated, individuals with sensitive skin should always perform a patch test before widespread use.

How do I clean my makeup brushes or sponges?

Clean your brushes and sponges regularly with a brush cleaner or mild soap and water. Allow them to dry completely before use.

Can I use this product as a concealer?

While it can provide some coverage, it is primarily a foundation and setting powder. For more coverage, use a separate concealer first.

What is the difference between this and the original Studio Fix Fluid?

This is a powder version, offering a matte finish and the convenience of a 2-in-1 product. The original is a liquid foundation offering a different finish and application.

How do I refill the compact?

Once you have used up the product, purchase the refill and insert it into the compact.

Does this product contain SPF?

No, this product does not contain SPF. It is recommended to use a separate sunscreen before applying this product.

Troubleshooting

Powder looks cakey.

Apply less product and ensure your skin is well-moisturized and primed before application.

Shade doesn't match skin tone.

Double-check the shade number and consider getting a professional shade match at a MAC store.

Powder emphasizes dry patches.

Exfoliate your skin and use a hydrating moisturizer or primer before applying the powder.

Powder doesn't control oil.

Use an oil-control primer and set your makeup with a setting spray.

Coverage is not buildable.

Use a sponge for application, patting the product onto your skin in layers.
