Users are deeply divided over the reformulation of the MAC Studio Fix Powder, with long-time fans mourning the loss of the original talc-based formula while others praise the new version for its blurring effect and refillable packaging. Many negative reviews cite issues with texture, color oxidation, and a perceived loss of the original's iconic performance.
👎
This is so disappointing! I’ve been using Studio Fix for 20 years and have never wanted to use anything else.
😊
It’s a powder foundation that sets and melts
👎
The new formula looks way heavier and exaggerates texture. Og looks so much more smooth and matte
😊
It still provides a matte, diffused look on the skin, but it looks a lot more natural and soft.
😊
It’s beginner friendly and covered my dark spots in seconds.
