The MAC Pro longwear Foundation is described by MAC's website as
A comfortable, long-wearing foundation that gives up to 15 hours of wear in any environmental condition. Lightweight and creamy, applies and blends easily leaving the skin feeling soft and free to breathe all day while controlling oil. Specially treated micronized pigments help give a smoother, more flawless, natural finish with stay-true colour.
So this foundation comes in a glass bottle that contains 30 mL of product or 1 fluid oz. This is typical for most foundations in the market
The product is contained in a glass bottle with a twist nozzle where you can lock it in place. I think this is pretty convenient since you don't have to wary in losing your foundation cap/cover. The pump is also nice since you can easily control the amount of product that you want to dispense :)
I got the shade in NW25. This shade is prolly 2 shades darker for me since the color leans a bit more to the peachy side and my skin tone is quite yellow but I can still use this foundation all over my face by applying 1 pump of it and mixing with a foundation that is lighter than my skintone to get a full coverage or by just applying it on my face with a light layer and setting it with a powder that is a shade lighter than my skin.
Here are some swatches! The swatch below is 1/3 of a pump.
COVERAGE:
Coverage can be medium-full depending on the amount you use. Just take note that you have to work in sections with this product since this product sets pretty fast, and when it does, it will not budge! :)
FINISH:
This foundation has a matte finish. This is perfect for days where you will be taking lots of photos with your girlfriends or a special occasion! (i.e. GNO!!)
STAYING POWER:
Since I have oily skin plus the Philippine weather, I expected this foundation to not last as long as 15 hours, but this definitely proved me wrong! The lasting power is awesome. It also is a good foundation to use on long days where you still want to look presentable and good even in those "haggard" days and.
MY FINAL THOUGHTS
Unfortunately, I will not repurchase this foundation since I think this broke me out. Although I love the finish, coverage, and it's staying power I don't want to risk any more breakouts! (MAC foundations are known to break some people out) But if your skin is not sensitive, this foundation is definitely worth it.
