I was inspired by Tymetheinfamous to do this video. She recently posted some nudes of lipsticks she bought, although the lipsticks were pretty, most wouldn’t work for me. So, I decided to do a video of lipsticks I think are great for women of MAC foundation shade NC45. I’m an NC45 or NC 44 in the winter months. These would also look great on women of even darker complexion like NC50, or any women of color such as hispanics and indian women. Hope you enjoy!

It’s probably the day of my favourites. I am back with another favourite product of mine, and this time, it’s a liquid foundation. I’m reviewing MAC studio Fix Fluid Foundation for you guys here! Continue reading to find out why I love it.
Claims:A modern foundation that combines a natural matte finish and medium-buildable coverage with broad spectrum UVA/UVB SPF-15. Comfortable and long-wearing, lasts for upto eight hours. Applies smoothly, builds coverage quickly and easily. Contains specially treated micronized pigments and soft-focus powders for a super-smooth look that helps minimize the appearance of imperfections. Absorbs and disperses oil. Contains special skin conditioning ingredients. Oil free.
Price: Rs. 1700 for 30 mL.
Packaging: it comes in a clear glass bottle with a screw-on black lid. The bottle is heavy because of the glass. And the bad part is that it comes without a pump. You will need to buy an additional pump for almost Rs. 500.
Ingredients:
I was on the lookout for the perfect shade of foundation, and having tried all available brands like Lakme, Revlon, L’Oreal, Maybelline, etc (I do love these brands for other products!), I was still not satisfied with the shade. I always looked like a ghost in the shades that these brands had to offer to me. All possible foundations left a whitish cast on my dusky complexion. Then I decided to buy a foundation from MAC. Agreed, it is expensive, but it is worth every penny. Trust me. For the first time in my life, I could find a perfect shade for my complexion. I picked up NC45 shade and it looks natural on my face. It controls the oil on my face, gives a flawless finish, provides medium to heavy coverage…well, I can go on and on about this thing!
Mac Nc45 Skin Tone
Pros:
Controls oil on my (oily) face. Need to properly moisturise the face prior to application, or it makes the skin feel stretchy (Probably it is too good at oil-control…haha)
Mac Nc45 Concealer
Provides medium coverage. Can be worn during the day also, without looking cakey or heavy. Coverage can be built up as per the need!
No need to wear concealer for small marks on the face (may be needed for heavy dark circles, though)
Looks fresh for 5-6 hours easily.
Sweat and water proof.
Spreads easily (though it dries very quickly, so you will need to work fast with it.)
Has SPF
Never broke me out.
perfect shade match!!
Additional pump may be needed, although I have not bought it, and I have no problems till now.
Available only at MAC stores.
Price. It is a tad too expensive for a foundation.
