Dupe For Mac Studio Fix Powder

Do you know of any good dupes for the (expensive) MAC Studio Fix Foundation? I’ve read reviews comparing the Maybelling Dream Matte Powder and have even tried it out myself. Not too bad for that price, a little less coverage and not as finely milled though.

My skin type is combination, so I’m always hesitant a powder will need touch ups during the day. Most powders leave me looking cakey if I dare to reapply during the day. This new NYX Stay Matte but not Flat Powder Foundation didn’t need touch ups during the day. I’d also like to mention that I prefer using this powder foundation as a setting powder. This can help you get full coverage over any liquid foundation you use.

The first thing I noticed about the packaging is that the NYX Stay Matte but not flat powder foundation looks a lot like MAC studio fix! They both have the same sponge applicator in the bottom compartment and overall design.

What Is A Dupe For Mac Studio Fix Powder Nw45

So NW58 is the darkest powder shade of the studio fix line. Im not sure if they have any other compact powders available but that is the only one I know of.
I hit the pan of my studio fix a few months back and I was dreading spending $250 for a face powder since it was the only powder I ever bought that fit me perfectly - until yesterday.

ARE YOU READY DOLLS??!!

SCREAMS!
If this isnt a dupe, I dont know what is!

Mac Studio Fix Fluid

Mac

Let me introduce you to the LA Girl HD press powder in COCOA. It is the last and darkest shade in a range of 15 shades in that line. They cost $38.00 (at Wonderful World) and for a drug store / dollar store brand it sure is a wowzzer!

Swatch Mac Studio Fix Powder

PROS

  • Price: $38TT compared to $250TT!
  • Closes dupe to NW58 you will get with a drugstore brand.
  • Packaging is a little more sleek and has a more 'expensive look'.
  • If you have dark skin and a cool undertone, this is perfect for you.
  • No white finish when applied even though it contains silica.
  • MATTE (af)
  • No probs with flash. (See photo below)

CONS

  • It really wouldnt be fair to give a 'con'... I mean...you have savings of $212TT! LOL!

  • When looked at in person, SF is a tad bit darker. When swatched, SF comes out true to the color that you see, where as LAG gives of a slight white appearance that eventually goes away. (See photo below)

  • I will say however that the SF finish is a bit smoother in application than LAG.
    Powder applied as a setting powder for non highlighted areas. Photos of face taken in flash. Will upload with natural light very soon as I know the photo lighting a slightly different

It's a damn good dupe! Aint as spectacular as the MAC but it saves hella money and it is a good buy for a drugstore product. You now I have mad love for my dark skinned loves and I had to share this 'S' with you.

If you try this, let me know and if you have any cheap dupes, dont forget to share with your sistas!
