So, I think I may have found my holy grail foundation and concealer, these being the Mac Pro Long wear concealer and the Mac Studio Fix foundation, I can't tell you how much I love both of these products.
I feel with concealer I need a very heavy duty one, a high coverage that'll cover my horrendous under eye dark circles, I feel that this concealer does this exactly. It's a medium to full coverage and I believe this because you can really build it. I would say be careful with it though because if you use a lot it can start to look cakey however a little goes a long way. It's a matte finish, so don't worry about the under eyes appearing oily the matte finish helps to counteract this. After setting it with powder it stays on for the whole day, I'm not sure I agree with the whole 15 hour hypothesis as I haven't ever worn it for that long but it has stayed on for the whole time I have worn it and I haven't ever had any creasing problems. Lastly, this also doubles up as a pretty good foundation, now I don't put this all over my face if I'm using it as a foundation but if I'm only feeling like a little bit of make-up I usually just put this under my eyes and on any other spots and blemishes and I'm good to go.
The foundation I use is the Studio Fix Fluid and I love the formula so much. Firstly it's very very long wearing I wear it all day and it lasts and I still feel like it looks fresh like I've just applied it. It's very very build-able and gives me the matte finish which is definitely my favourite finish with foundations. The shade is so perfect, I find it so hard to find a shade that matches my skin but this one is perfect, it's in shade nc15 which is the best match. I love that it gives a flawless appearance to the skin and doesn't cling to my patches of dry skin like other foundations have done it's literally perfect.
To beginners it may seem like they're a little expensive, yes they are, however with Mac products I feel they last a very long time so I can justify spending my money on them and they are amazing quality. In this picture I used both products and I feel my base is flawless.
Let me know any dupes to these products, or your favourite Mac products?
