What is it?
One of the newest foundation lines from M.A.C. that are available in Indonesia. The Pro Long Wear foundation falls under the category of makeup made for oily to combination skin. Previously, the Studio Fix line was the best available choice from M.A.C. for this type of skin.
The claim
From M.A.C. official description: A long-wear foundation that gives up to 15 hours of wear in any environmental condition. Lightweight and creamy, applies smoothly to provide sheer to medium coverage. Even in hot and humid conditions, controls oil to keep skin fresh, natural and flawless. Provides everyday SPF protection.
The verdict
I am honestly not sure about the 15 hours staying power, but I’m very realistic, given the super humid and hot climate of Indonesia, I know that I would be happy with even much less than the claim. From my own experience, I need to blot my face approximately in the afternoon, approaching the end of business day.
For a week, I alternated using Studio Fix and Pro Long Wear for my foundation, and I am happy to report that, while I am currently satisfied with Studio Fix, Pro Long Wear does stay longer, giving a more lasting matte look on the skin. It also doesn’t feel heavy or cakey.
