Viral MAC Studio Radiance Foundation Review | Milabu

Viral MAC Radiance Foundation Try IT!
The newest MAC foundation comes at a hefty price tag and is the most expensive from their makeup line. What makes Studio Radiance Foundation unique, the formula is serum powered packed with hydrating skincare benefits. While the MAC radiance serum foundation is not targeted towards oily skin, I’m testing it on my combination skin type. The overall finish of the new MAC Studio Radiance Foundation is stunning. My blurs were not enhanced, my texture was smooth and even, and of course we can’t forget the glass-skin finish. While this radiant foundation is not for everyone, I can see why it’s so well loved online with raving reviews.

This is really a beautiful foundation for dry older skin. I started using it 2 months ago. I really am so happy. I bought a second bottle because it was on sale at Ulta. It doesn’t settled in fine line or wrinkles. 💕

[@janinepannell]

I got mine on sale at Ulta also!!❤❤❤

[@rebekahw540]

So happy to read this! I just bought this foundation today. Along with the mineralize powder. I’m getting close to 40 and my skin has definitely changed. I can’t get away with all the lower end make up I used to in my 20s lol so I’m so happy to read this doesn’t settle into fine lines!!

This is my go to every day foundation. Love it on my mature dry skin.

[@mireillewilson5911]

I've been wondering about this one. I have dry skin. Foundation has not been my friend but it sounds like I should give this one a try. Thanks for reviewing

[@sandyheller5438]

I went into Ulta for a shade match. If you can do that it is better then to just guess. I have really light skin and it is very hard to match. The girl who helped got the color perfect.

@@sandyheller5438 Thanks for the tip. I'll for sure do that. Happy Holidays

Melania how does this compare to the NARS radiant foundation? Similar?

[@francescabersellini5941]

Hi! I am a makeup artist looking for a no-transfer foundation for bridal use during spring/summer season. I usually apply Radiance Face and Body, but it's too glowy and light for combination skins or skins with discolorations or spots.. I have tried these new foundations on my skin (which is a combination skin), and now I have bought them for a couple of brides with a bit oilier skins. My aim is not to apply a heavy or dry-effect foundation, that's why I bought this Serum foundation instead of a totally matte one. Do you think it would be enough to simply blot the oilier areas with loose powder, to make the makeup last all the ceremony and after party? 😊 Thanks!

[@starrypunk20]

I have extremely oily skin and with the right primer and setting this wears incredibly long. I really like it, just really hard to find a shade match as they lean orange/yellow

[@knittedwarbler]

If you're cool toned, make sure you're swatching "nw". Mac swaps the cool and warm tones names. I'm cool toned, and got matched as nw5 last week at MAC

[@starrypunk20]

@@knittedwarbler oh yes totally, found that out not too long ago actually lol. But still feel like I got a yellow foundation lol. I’m seeking out a pink undertone and it’s just not there 🤣

[@YoooooYooooo]

what primer are you using under this foundation?

[@starrypunk20]

@@YoooooYooooo I use danessa Myricks blurring balm powder in universal, it’s been a life saver

Do you have makeup brand recommendations for oily skin types?

You look incredible.

[@loraantoinette4718]

Love your reviews, thank for doing this one 😸

[@dheredia2789]

I love the blush!

[@nithyak2798]

Is the foundation waterproof too? 🤔

[@Klarasjolund11]

wait it's 46 dollars?! where do u live cuz i need to go there to buy it because were i live its 54 dollars

[@harmonymorgan4723]

This hydrating foundation is not good for oily skin, probably in the winter, not summer. I remember blotting my face a lot with this foundation on. More than usual. It goes on so smoothly, and it does glide on the skin and melts and becomes one, and I like the medium coverage, so it's not so heavy feeling. I dont think it's for oily skin, though. I hope make makes one for oily skin. In cooler weather, it stays matte. Not for hot climate. I have to switch to a different foundation.

[@liss441]

I loved it too but the shades are off

[@tsunimee]

omg, thank you for pointing this out. every sample i get is always too dark. to me, it feels like nc 12, 14.5 and nc16 is all the same shade. At this point, I think I am only left with the lighest shade

[@LaMangecailloux]

Agree! I use N2 and n3 in face and body and nw25 in the studio fix concealer and I had to go to nW13 in the radiance foundation 🙄 the MAC counter attendant was puzzled too! it’s beautiful though

[@me-jx2tj]

Aren’t you applying foundation or concealer on the eyelids as well?

[@randihager8914]

Is this water based or silicone based.

[@Buttercup553]

Oil Based

[@farzanashawkath3387]

Can people with oily skin use this foundation ?

[@kgty1295]

I use it and it looks great on the skin. Just powder your t zone every 6-8 hours

[@PJ-wu8wq]

It does look very good! Totally looks like beautiful skin and not foundation!

[@maryrodberg9212]

Am I the only one who thinks the shade match is off? Made it is the better cameras makeup content creators use because I have noticed this on other people I follow. But either way, don’t care, love your videos!! ❤

[@murtila4456]

I'd like to think they all do it on purpose so you can detect the colour on their faces as they apply it cause if it was the perfect match, it would be invisible.

[@WinterIsWelcome]

Personally I feel that MAC foundations lean very yellow. The yellow undertone was the first thing I noticed. I have always had a hard time finding a good shade match with MAC, despite liking the formula.

[@Gingerlickinggood]

Nope

[@PinkRose0910]

To be honest it looks like the wrong shade for you. Unless it’s a camera thing. It’s looks too dark and like it’s the wrong undertone.

[@natasja8201]

I agree

[@Gingerlickinggood]

Nope

[@aja.m.lareau]

The shade she has listed is for warmer skin tones. Mac is the opposite of everyone else, so if it starts with NW, it is for cool undertones, NC is for warm undertones. She got NC 14.5 which is, I believe, not for her undertone bc I think she leans neutral/cool. So, long story short lol, I think you are right, it is the incorrect undertone

[@patriciapelletier1981]

I thought it was a little orange for you….

[@Gingerlickinggood]

Didn’t notice or think that actually

[@janinepannell]

I like it as it’s very skin like. Hydrating? No not at all. No radiance either.

[@jamietatum4581]

This foundation does not look good to me. I’m sorry I can see all the imperfections and it looks way too shiny

[@mamazbebe123]

You didn’t even use primer tho.. please try again with primer ❤❤
