I’ve been a MAC Pro member for a few years now, but finally attended my first Pro Master Class last night, which was led by MAC Senior Artist Jane McKay. Jane has an impressive resume that includes plenty of editorial and celebrity work (one of which is my favourite – Alicia Keys!). She demonstrated an artist trick she uses to hydrate and add lustre to the skin, even post foundation and powder application. I’m a huge fan of still seeing the skin through the foundation and powder (i.e. mom’s pancake make-up is so yesterday!), so I thought I’d share a tip from Jane here.
Remember healthy and youthful skin has a dewy glow to it, and using too much foundation and powder can create a dull and flat effect on the face. Insert MAC’s Fix+. Rather than starting your foundation and powder application from scratch – just give the face a spritz or two of Fix+ to bring back the glow. Fix+ is water-based and has a hint of glycerin (to help get that coveted glow) . The formula is also fortified with vitamins and minerals so your skin will be thanking you. Before you head out, make sure the T-zone is powdered just enough to get rid of the excess shine and voila! You’ll be glowing in all the right places!
