Discovering the MAC matchmaster foundation:
It took me 22 years to cave in and finally purchase a MAC
foundation. I know a lot of people that use MAC products specifically their
foundation and they love it! Why wouldn’t anyone want to buy it? It’s
affordable, gives great coverage and is ultimately an amazing product.
Well for me I kept telling myself down the road that I will
purchase a MAC foundation but I never got the courage to actually purchase it.
I kept holding on to my Chanel vitalumiere
aqua foundation that I loved. This was probably because I knew that I wasn’t
wasting my money and it was ultimately something that I was comfortable with.
A couple of weeks ago, my sister came to visit me in
Philadelphia and we did anything any girl would do, shop. We were almost to the
Macy’s exit door when my sister wandered over to the MAC counter. I picked up
the matchmaster foundation and started testing it on the back of my hand.
Within a matter of seconds the girl at the counter approached me, asking me all
sorts of questions. She applied the foundation on my face and in a matter of
seconds I fell in love. The foundation was everything I was looking for and
even more.
My Overall opinion:
After 1 month of using this foundation, I have no
complaints, AT ALL! Well maybe if I had to pick one it would be to change the
smell of the foundation. It isn’t smelly in a bad way but it smells like
makeup, which I don’t like.
Starting off with the formulation of the product, it is a
thick creamy consistency that glides on the face smoothly. It doesn’t give that
“Caked on” look. I personally like to apply this foundation with a buffer brush
but in times of need I have used my fingertips. I believe that both methods of
application give the same results. One thing that I love about this foundation
is the coverage. The foundation from Chanel that I used before didn’t give me
coverage at all when I compare it to the MAC foundation.
What I noticed different about this foundation compared to
any other foundations that I have used throughout my life is that it has an
orange hue. When I apply this foundation on the skin that hue isn’t noticeable
at all. If anything this orange hue is a positive aspect of this foundation. At
times I will mix my concealer with the foundation and apply it under my eyes.
The orange hue definitely helps in covering up my dark circles under my eyes.
Also, with most concealers, when I apply this foundation with my concealer it
doesn’t crease up at all.
Saying that this product is amazing is an understatement.
This has truly become my Holy Grail product of the year. I will definitely
re-purchase this product. The best thing about it is that it only cost me
33.00, which is reasonably cheap for high-end foundations. If you are looking
for a new foundation, I highly recommend that you go to MAC counter and get a
sample of this amazing foundation! Be sure to leave comments down below!
