Lightbulb Acne-prone individuals: YOUR FAVE/LEAST FAVE MAC foundations?

What are your favorite or NOT so favorite MAC foundations/powders? Your experiences?

I broke out badly from Studio Fix a looong time ago.

Select spf 15 foundation I don't think it broke me out badly per se. But the staying power sucks.

Blot powder was ok...

I want to try Studio fix Fluid. I'm scared tho cos I don't want anymore breakouts!!

Mac Studio fix powder formula broke me out too, but not the SPF liquid foundation they have. Mac Face and Body foundation is a good one.

I'm not acne prone, but SFF broke me out.

Re: Acne-prone individuals: YOUR FAVE/LEAST FAVE MAC foundations?

I'm not really prone to breakouts, but I had a severe reaction to Studio Fix Fluid and haven't tried any other MAC foundations due to that. Studio Fix Fluid contains Algae Extract which is a skin irritant and is comedogenic. It has great coverage and a great finish, though...I'm bummed that it broke me out.

MAC Face and Body foundation was alright, didn't break me out...but it's very sheer so if you're looking for full coverage this isn't the right foundation for you.

OMG! How could they put something so *comedogenic* in their foundation?! Shame on them! I will steer far far away!!

I am actually looking for some coverage...and MAC was always good for this.

I use mineral makeup but I find it is making my skin wayyy too oily than it already is.

I am desperately seeking a GOOD MATIFYING liquid foundation. *sigh.

Never used it, but from what I've heard I don't think any of their foundations are for me.

Maybe they have another foundation that you can try? Or else maybe try Estee Lauder Double Wear or Revlon Colorstay for long lasting foundation with good coverage. If you're willing to try something other than MAC, that is. Good luck on finding your HG foundation!

I'm not acne-prone, but I'm not tickled just yet on their foundations.
