I don’t know what’s up with my skin lately. It used to be an oil slick, but recently I’ve been having dry combination skin. What this means is, when I put on my powder… well, it looks overly powdery. Not cute, right?
MAC Fix+ Rose
MAC Fix+ Rose (Limited Edition, but still available at MAC online) came to my rescue. I have been using this every single time I do my makeup since I got it. Yes, yet another step to my already makeup routine. But it is oh. so. WORTH IT.
Perfect dewy finish.
From the MAC website: “Our popular Fix+ enhanced with rose water. Formulated from spring water, rich in added minerals, this aromatic mist refreshes, hydrate, and conditions the skin while acting as a perfect finishing fix for makeup. Smells great, too. Limited edition.”
I can see why so many people like this so much. I present to you Exhibit A. I’m in yellow with my gorgeous cousins.
(By the way, who knew yellow was so flattering on Asian skin? I need to buy more yellow tops.)
But wait… how do I use it?
There are many ways to use it. After you finish applying your makeup:
- Spritz all over your face, then use a skunk/stippling brush to stipple it into the skin.
- What I do: spray my skunk brush and stipple all over.
I’ve also seen it used to intensify the colour of eye shadows or eyeliner by wetting the brush first.
This is a definite holy grail for me. And yes, it does really smell good. Pure luxury. Rating: A+++++.
