Here's what MAC has to say about this foundation- “M∙A∙C Studio Waterweight SPF 30 Foundation – an innovative foundation that delivers colour in an ultra-fluid, elegantly thin, elastic gel serum formula. With stay-true colour and sheer medium buildable coverage, it softly blurs imperfections such as pores and fine lines. The addition of Moisture-Fusion Complex provides immediate and all-day hydration, leaving skin feeling quenched and soft, supple, silky to the touch.” Here's what I have to say about it- First things first, the packaging.

MAC Studio Waterweight Foundation FIRST IMPRESSIONS. (color change). Follow along with me through my day as I put it to the test! MAC Studio Waterweight SPF-30 Foundation.

The foundation comes in a matte finish glass bottle with a dropper. As the formula is really lightweight and runny, its definitely the best kinda packaging for it- Travel-friendly & looks quite elegant too. The foundation has a very thin consistency. Its a serum-gel formula. I need 4 drops for my whole face and it spreads easily. I've tried applying this foundation with fingers, Real Techniques Expert Face Brush & The Beauty Blender andddd the best one that won by far was the.fingers! Now, its been a wee while since I've used my hands to do this job so it was quite odd.

I've been addicted to brushes for a very long time. But I found the finish came out best this way. Reason- As the foundation is very thin, the brush found it hard to blend it into skin (unless you go dab-dab and take forever). The beauty Blender gave a very sheer finish and absorbed some of the product as well. You know MAC is expensive shizz so yeah!

Fingers are my pick this one time. MAC recommends the newly released 197 SH duo fibre brush with this, a very densely packed brush. I wear shade NC 30 in this foundation. I'm usually a NC 32-ish but even NC 30 matches me quite well. I did try NC 35 in store but it felt a tad darker. I figured I'd have to mix two shades but NC 30 doesn't look off at all. I guess its because the foundation is so thin and the fact you use only 4 drops, subtle differences in shades are easily forgiven in this case, as compared to a full coverage foundation.

Check out these before and after shots. You can see my sun spots and mole in both pictures. Well, all good and no cons? Here we go, If you have sun spots, acne scars and the likes, this will not cover them. They will be blurred a tad bit but they'll show. Its NOT A FULL COVERAGE foundation.

Its natural finish, shy of medium at best. It clings to dry patches. I had to learn this the hard way.

In my, I got overzealous and ended up irritating my skin. Dry Patches!! And the Waterweight foundation clings to them. It looked so gross! So I had to stop using the brush for a few days and up my moisture game.

Mac how to delete duplicate files. This was a very simple but very useful feature in older outlook versions. I just cant figure out how to select multiple attachments on an email and simply remove them all at once instead of having to right-click on every single one and delete it.

Was my savior under this foundation. Bottom Line- Must apply a good hydrating moisturiser underneath specially if you have dry skin like mine. I found the foundation to neither add moisture nor take it from the skin. In other words, it was neither hydrating not dehydrating. So keep up with the moisture game. I can't stress this enough! The finish- its dewy!

Its not everyone's plate but it is so me. This and Mineralized SkinFinish Natural powder in Medium Plus were match made in heaven. If you don't like dewy/natural finish.there's always matte setting powders to rescue. (I have no powder on in the pictures.

Its just foundation). Verdict- If you are blessed with a relatively clear skin and are looking for a very light weight natural finish foundation that gives you a healthy luminous glow without the cakiness, it cannot get any better than MAC's Waterweight Foundation. MAC Face and Body Foundation fans will also like it. It has a wider shade selection- Whooping 25 shades!!!

Though MAC face & Body might beat this in longevity. If you do not like the look of sheer, natural finish and have scars to cover, this might not be your piece of cake. Also, the foundation tends to stick to dry patches so a good hydrating moisture base is a must. As for me, I have a lot of sun spots and scarring, but I don't mind them to show through for daily wear, but at weddings and such occasions, I'd mix Waterweight Foundation with a full cover foundation for more coverage and a subtle healthy glow.
