“Why, yes, Ryan Gosling, I am using something new. exactly how great of you to notice. It’s the new MAC Matchmaster foundation ($32.50; offered in 14 shades) in shade 5.0, as well as I’ve been using it for about a week…”

Okay, no, Ryan Gosling did not really remark upon my makeup regimen, however I sure desire he had. I believe he may discover the innovation behind MAC’s new liquid foundation nearly as interesting as I do.

You see, it’s all about those balls we talked about last week. For the new foundation, MAC encapsulated pigments in translucent balls that they state enable Matchmaster to cover flaws while still appearing like genuine skin.

So does it work?

Well, that depends. shade 5.0 absolutely evens out my skin tone as well as covers whatever I want it to cover, from the post-acne discoloring along my jawline (dang hormones have run amok!) to the light areas on my cheeks, however it doesn’t look totally natural to me.

I nearly don’t even care, though, since of exactly how much I like the lightweight feel as well as exactly how long it keeps the radiate on my forehead at bay (for hours). Unfortunately, I believe it’s nearly as well great at washing out the natural variations in my skin tone as well as structure that would keep it looking real. I believe my skin looks a lot more natural when I wear Chanel mat Lumiere, my present preferred foundation. With Matchmaker, I feel like I have to pay better interest to my contouring with bronzer, lest my skin look absolutely flat.

It may have something to make with the shade I’ve been using… 5.0 isn’t a best match for me; it’s a bit redder than my normal NC 42, however it was the closest shade I might discover in the variety to my skin.

I do notice that the reddish tones in 5.0 mellow out a bit after a few hours of wear as well as let with a lot more of my natural skin tone, so perhaps I just have to be a bit a lot more patient.

A few other notes…

No breakouts!
Knock on wood, however so far Matchmaker hasn’t triggered any type of breakouts on my combination oily/dry/acne-prone skin (read: normally fussy), so that’s a huge plus.

Tørr hud
Matchmaker doesn’t even flinch at oily skin, however it’s not as positive around the dry stuff. I can see it clinging to the few flakes I have on my cheeks.

applikasjon
Almost like a gel. That’s exactly how Matchmaker feels to me. It’s thicker than a lot of liquid foundations as well as can apply a bit streaky. I tried it a few different ways, as well as I believe I got the most natural looking results when I used it with a skunk clean as well as pressed it in with my fingers.

I’m in hard-core like with Matchmaster. Not like exactly, however extremely strong like. It produces a excellent canvas upon which other products can be applied, covering up whatever that I’d like it to cover, however it doesn’t look all that natural to me.

By no indicates does it look as heavy as some full-coverage foundations I’ve tried, however I still believe I look “made up” when I have it on.

Depending on the condition of your skin, you may like Matchmaker a lot, particularly if you have oily skin as well as requirement detailed coverage.
