Review: MAC PRO LONGWEAR


Hey Dolls...

So this is a review on the MAC Pro Longwear, as you all know this product came out ages ago but I only purchased it last year October time. I was trying to find a foundation to suit my skin type and coverage that I wanted, I was looking for a foundation that is for oily skin, full coverage, and stays on all day. So I went to MAC to try and out some of there foundation as they give testers of foundation to try. I tried Studio fix and Studio sculpt and I didn't get on with either of them (didn't stay on, left my skin looking patchy throughout the day) The lady in MAC recommended me the Pro Longwear and I instantly fell in love with the product.

This foundation is quite thick, and give full coverage (I wouldn't advice this to anyone who likes more thinner foundations) as this foundation is thick it blokes your pores, so it causes you to break out. I found that my skin was getting a lot more breakouts then I normally do, especially on the forehead area and just above my jaw bone. But because this product suites my needs  I still use it because I love the coverage, it just means you have to be committed to putting on skin care products on every morning and night.

But I honestly have to say this is the best foundation I have ever used. I have been looking for a foundation like this for years, I have been trying out various high street foundation and high ends and nothing I have tried compares to this. 

I find that its easier to blend the foundation with your fingers as I found that using a brush doesn't apply the foundation as thick as I want it, it sit really nice on your skin and covers brilliantly. I just set the foundation with MAC studio fix powder and the products together give me the coverage that I want. For £25 I think its an amazing price, I've been using this foundation like everyday since October 2013 and I've used just under a 1/4 already in like 3 months and I've worked out that this foundation will last me a year. I also worked out that the foundation I was using before Rimmel London wake me up, I used a bottle every 2-3 months costing around £8 a bottle it would cost me £32 a year on foundation which is more then the MAC foundation. 

I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a full coverage foundation, and you want it to last all day. I wouldn't advice this to anyone who has spotty skin and this will make your break outs even worse. 

I hope this review helps. Thanks for reading 

See you soon
