M.A.C Studio Fix Tech Cream-To-Powder Foundation

M·A·C Studio Fix Tech Cream-To-Powder Foundation NC17 is a versatile cream foundation designed to give skin a smooth, natural-looking matte finish. The tri-system blend of water, emollients and powder glides on as a soft cream, then settles into a lightweight powder feel that helps to even the look of tone and blur the appearance of fine lines. The NC17 shade is described as a light beige with a neutral undertone, ideal for light skin tones seeking balanced, natural-looking coverage.

The formula offers medium, buildable coverage that can be sheered out for everyday wear or layered where more coverage is desired. Sweat- and humidity-resistant, it’s suitable for all skin types, including those who prefer a foundation that helps to control shine without feeling dry. Designed to provide up to 12 hours of colour-true wear, it also delivers immediate and long-term moisturisation so skin feels comfortable throughout the day. Use it as your main base step after skincare and before any powder, blush or bronzer to create a polished, long-wearing complexion.

How to use
How to Use:
Apply to clean, moisturised skin. Pick up a small amount of foundation with a sponge or brush. Smooth over the face, starting at the centre and blending outwards. Build thin layers in areas where more coverage is desired. Close the compact firmly after use to help prevent the formula from drying out.

Frequency:
Use as needed as part of your daily make-up routine or for occasions when you’d like additional coverage.

Application Technique:
Use a clean make-up sponge or foundation brush to pick up the cream, then press and sweep it onto the skin. Blend carefully along the jawline and around the nose and hairline for a seamless finish. The formula can be worn alone or set with a light dusting of powder if preferred.

Best Practices:
Apply after your usual skincare and any primer. Start with a small amount and build gradually to avoid a heavy look. Store the compact closed and away from direct heat or sunlight.

Safety Tips:
For external use only. Avoid direct contact with eyes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and seek advice if needed. Keep out of reach of children and always follow any additional instructions on the packaging.
