    Yuck I hate the smell and it made my skin break out. Dissappointed in MAC they are supposed to make quality products, ick.

    It seems to me they changed the formula of this when they changed the packaging from the hard tube to the soft tube. I used to really adore this product. Maybe it's because I'm very fair, but I...

    Humm, thought I liked it at first, the NC30 was a good match for my NC25 skin (it runs light). It blends out okay with a brush, except that it would tend to clump up and get in my brows - never had...

    Wow I'm in the minority again. :P This foundation looks beautiful on me. I'm an LLL, c35 and I'm normal skin type; I'm not prone to break out and this just melts into my skin -- brings out the...

    The only thing good I have to say about this foundation is the great range of colors to chose from. Other than that, you get no oil control and no coverage. Also, after 1 week of using this, my...

    This foundation never matched my skin. Just not a good color in the range of MATTE. However it does give a nice, not heavy polished look to the face.

    I don't think a product made me mad until this one. It's funny to think back on, but really - the foundation is extremely watery and irritating.. in other words, gives no coverage AND generates...

    I purchased some MAC foundation and can honestly say that I was very disappointed. No coverage at all. Paper thin, watery. Left my skin with no coverage at all. Very disappointed with this line....

    I had absolutely no preconceptions about this product going into this purchase. All I knew was that it was a matte foundation. When I tried it for the first time, it was just too watery and light...

    Didn't like this at all. Too watery and sheer for my face - I need more coverage than this offers. The only good thing to this foundation is the colour - which was a PERFECT match for me (NC20)

    This is my everyday foundation. It works great on my normal skin. I would steer clear of this if your oily...I think the 'Matte' in the product title is misleading. It leaves a very natural glow...

    There is nothing matte about this product. It goes on shiny, stays shiny and finishes shiny. Worse, its in a long tube that makes it difficult to control how much product comes out....

    If you remotely have oily skin, stay FAR AWAY from this foundation!!! I mean it!!! I was so disappointed because NC15 was such a great match, but after 1.5-2 hours my face was a huge oil slick,...

    What I like best about this foundation is the color match - I'm asian, and the NC35 looks great whether I'm indoors or out. The texture is fine, though I wish that the coverage were a little...

    This was another foundation that failed horribly on my oily skin. Just an ok foundation, overall.

    I've been using MAC Studio Finish Matte foundation off and on since I was 16 (I'm 19 now). It's my favorite foundation I have to say, because of the yellow based colors (I'm asian), and light...

    This foundation should be called dew finish, not matte. It gives me a glowing look for about 30 mins, then I look like an oil slick. Provides very sheer coverage, not enough to hide flaws. Gets...

    This wasn't a bad foundation for me. Even though I'm dry, the MA suggested I try it anyway. It worked well if I moisturized my face a lot beforehand, and it wasn't too matte and dry on my skin. ...
