Ever feel like your makeup doesn’t marry your skin? Instead, it just sits there making your face look caked up and dull?

We promise to have a solution!

THE MAC PREP + PRIME FIX +

First of all, we’d like to address the common misconception people have with this product. Yes, it’s called Fix +. No, it’s not used for setting your makeup. Let us tell you what it’s used for.

 

WHAT MAC CLAIMS

The MAC website claims that it is:

‘A lightweight water mist that gently soothes and refreshes skin and finishes makeup.’

 

OUR THOUGHTS

We totally agree. It’s an amazing spray that works beautifully for a number of things.

You can use it underneath your makeup for it to act as a primer to make your makeup last that much longer.

You can use it over your makeup to give you a dewy, glowing fresh look, as it finishes your makeup by eliminating the excessive powdery look. (Favourite way of using this spray!)

It can also be used on makeup brushes. Spray a little to wet your, say, eye shadow brush before dipping it into your eye shadow to achieve that intense pigmentation on the lids. It helps intensify any shade you wish to apply.

You can also use this technique with your highlighter, however, we find that instead of spraying it on the brush before application, if you spray your entire face with it and then apply your highlighter while your face is still wet, it works much better.

We love the packaging. It’s simple, sturdy and safe to travel with. The bottle sprays a fine mist and dries quickly. However, not as fine as some other sprays out there, namely Urban Decay’s All Nighter. But can be worked with if sprayed from a good distance. It doesn’t have a strong smell nor leaves skin feeling tacky afterwards.

 

OUR VERDICT

Holy Gail product, for sure. 10/10.

We love this product and nothing about it upsets us. Will always repurchase. Definitely a staple on our makeup counter.
