Another tip that i've learn over the years using this foundation, is letting it set for a few seconds before start rubbing, that way it's already a little bit tacky when you blend it =)
I love your tutorial! I just bought it for the first time and waiting for it to arrive so I am learning before trying! And I loved your finished full face look! Very natural and beautiful! Thank you for making this and teaching me! ❤️
Those tips are great! I have tried several ways to wear this and now I know why it wasn’t working, I have very dry skin and was using my rich moisturiser that I use with all my other foundations, not leaving time for it to dry down. I’ll use a lighter moisturiser for this, let it dry down and use my hands! 👐 thanks! 💜
Thank you so much for this video. I finally understood that I had to keep rubbing more and more after it starts getting sticky. I used to stop once it started to get sticky. However, if you keep working it, it will give you a seamless no-makeup effect.
Hey its a lovely video😇🥰 need one help pls. I have this foundation but its quite pink tone , so what should i do to make it more on the yellow shade???
I love how natural it looks, but still offers nice coverage. I checked Sephora, looks like we maybe don’t have this in Canada. Have you tried the Ordinary serum foundation?
You should have it! Try the Mac online store. I just googled it and it seems like Canada Mac has it! Yeah, it's really a beautiful foundation but I love it because as someone who kinda hates foundation it doesn't feel like anything is on my face. I haven't tried that one, but I also haven't heard many good things about it. The price is appealing though!
@Anna Banana ya know, I was wrong! There are two foundations from them, and it was the more full coverage one I had heard bad things about. I think I’m gonna try out the serum one now🤗
I don't think you mentioned this, but this foundation needs to be shaken before use otherwise it looks a bit separated. I love this foundation so much, as well as the Dior backstage face and body foundation. These are my 2 favourite ones, and both need to be shaken before use
@@DanaRippertongood of bad rumblings? 🤣 i am in the US. I got it at a mac store where im located (CT) only spot online i saw was online is nordstrom she told me it just came in to the store last week.
@@lindseysreptiles THANK YOU! Guess I'm headed to Mac today. Hahaha 😂 I wonder if I can find it at the Mac counter in Nordstrom or if I should try to find an actual Mac store 🧐 I know people are scared that it's not gonna be the same, and that they'll discontinue the original, so I'm super intrigued. I've also seen a ton of sales on the original F&B...which makes me worried. -Sincerely, a Mac F&B lover/weirdo 🤪
@@DanaRipperton i hadn't used mac for over 15 yrs. It felt nostalgic to be back in there. It was the thing back when i was younger. They have great products but i dont hear about mac as much anymore
Nope, face and body does not have SPF but even if it did, you should be using spf underneath, as you’re liking not applying enough foundation to get the full protection
@@DanaRipperton ok 👌🏼 thanks 😊 I'll need to get some.. my fiancé and I are going to vacation in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 😍 for the 1st time in July, so I am preparing now
F&B is the best, such a flattering long lasting finish, completely agree with your tips. I also love it because one small bottle lasts me ages. On the odd occasion I want more coverage I mix a few drops of the MAC pro longwear concealer into it. I can't imagine ever using anything else * chefs kiss *
I absolutely love the way this looks but if I wear if for a few days my skin starts getting very tight and dry. I don't know if it's the orange essential oil in it or the fact that it i supposed to set? anyone else with dry skin have this issue?
It’s all about skin prep, which sadly means not just the day-of wearing it. Do you use facial oils? I used to have dry skin, but after using facial oils at night and during the day my skin has truly becoming more normal. Also, try a dewy setting spray over top!
@@DanaRipperton thank you for your reply. I do a ton of skin prep, hydrating toner, cream, oil and sunscreen, so I know it's something in the formula that's making me dry out because it doesn't happen when I'm not wearing it. Just strange because in the description it says it's hydrating but definitely not for me.
@@jessicaritchie882 Hmmm yeah, it might just not be the best fit for you. But I can tell you that this is DEFINITELY not a hydrating foundation. Out of all of the ones I own, this is one of the least hydrating. Not that it's matte, but I don't look to it for a dewy finish or to provide my skin with moisture. Although the new one is a little bit more dewy, so maybe that could work? I have a new video comparing the old and new ones
@@DanaRipperton I have very dry skin too, which facial oils do you use and recommend? I use rosehip oil in winter, but would appreciate any other recommendations
I've used it for a while, but ordered a new bottle of the new undertone "W" since I have both C2 and N2, I ordered W2, and it's way too light!! So if I reorder, do I order it in 3, or 4 or which? And I guess when I reorder C and N, I should also order different than the 2 level of color???
@@DanaRipperton i have a real difficult time doing that, & I hoped u might know bout their changes. Just occurred to me that since they added many more shades From their range which remains the same, mostly, that each new shade prob goes up either 0.5 or 0.75 % of the way they used to measure the level of difference tween shades-- hope that makes sense. So it's not going to be an exact shade in the end to match the old "2" level. But.... I could probably choose tween W3 and W4 to gain more depth of color, & B happy with result, but probably need to talk to a MAC Rep at their HQ in Pennsylvania to find out. They always want to talk or either text but i can't text real fast like i used to do, so it will have 2 B a phone call. Thank you SO MUCH 4 your sympathy!!! I should have expected that change in the shades, and consulted a Mac rep before I even ordered but I just didn't even think about it so ordered the "2" level of color within the W undertone. It's still a VERY PRETTY look and I'm reminded of why it is my favorite, and because I keep it in the refrigerator, don't wear it as often because it's not close at hand when I'm getting ready... But it is so hot now that I'm going to relocate my other liquid and cream makeup near the air conditioner thermostat closet because I had been told that Mac foundations will disintegrate in the heat the liquid ones, that is. I also have a few of their powders and they are just fine.🤗🌴
Honestly I don’t know much about their new shades but I know that some have really changed a lot. I think at least talking to a Mac employee would probably be best
@@DanaRipperton Thank you again for your sympathy. I've discovered that I can still wear the new W-2 shade. When I first got shade matched, I must have had a slight tan because C-2 and N-2 are both a little bit darker on my skin now than when I purchased them many months back. So I tried to buy the white Mixing Drops which MAC sells. But the dept stote at which I bought the C-2, told me they are not sold at retail establishments so I sent away to Pennsylvania for them. They see nice, but l never will need then with this new W-2 shade. I've never mixed MAC FAB with another foundation before, like so many other ppl I see onTH-cam. So that's another adventure these foundations will be good for, without spending any more money right now. Can you do a review on Koh Gen Do either Aqua or Moisture Foundation?
@@KaraLey98 the letters W, C, N, stand for undertone colors I believe. (Warm, Cool, Neutral) so figure out what your undertone is, there’s tips about it on YT, after that just go up a number or down in the shade range of the of your undertone. Also Mac online has an option for shade matching with their camera, this is 2 months too late but hope this helps.
Thank u so much i tried this technique on me and my mum and on me i just rubbed of it on my red spots and it got stuck on dry patches and mum just clinged to dry patches what do u think we do wrong? Its like it only stays coverage on certain spots and not over my redness and so on
Didn't remember if you are accepting requests for new reviews, but if so, can you do a review on the KohGenDo // either their Aqua foundation, or the Moisture one? Thanks if you can but if you are sticking to mostly skin care, these days, I understand.🌈🌝🌴
Also, do you have any info on the new Radiance version of Face & Body. The OG is already pretty radiant on me, so as much as I’m intrigued, I’m afraid I’d look like the Tin Man...

I’ve always thought that this foundation doesn’t work but now I tried it your way and it has an amazing finish
Thanks a lot🥰♥️
Whoooo🥳🥳best news ever!!!!
I love your tutorial! I just bought it for the first time and waiting for it to arrive so I am learning before trying! And I loved your finished full face look! Very natural and beautiful! Thank you for making this and teaching me! ❤️
Awww thank you! It’s a fabulously versatile product. Hope you enjoy! ❤️🤗
Do you have a preference between the EL and MAC?
Thank you for this tutorial. I really love this foundation but warming it up with your hands is the key! Great and informative video ❤
Missha’s Safe Block Sun Milk (SPF 50!) is beautiful for me under Face & Body. It blurs the skin and F&B seems to love it!
Nice! Thanks for the suggestion since I have that sunscreen 🤗
Kylie Dunmire,
Sounds interesting and lovely. Where did you pick that particular SPF up, if you don't mind?
Try YesStyle or StyleVana!
@@KaraLey98 I got it on Amazon! You can also find the Missha brand on YesStyley. It’s beautiful and fantastic for my very very skin!
Yes I agree!! Using hands is the best I love it !
100%!!!
Those tips are great! I have tried several ways to wear this and now I know why it wasn’t working, I have very dry skin and was using my rich moisturiser that I use with all my other foundations, not leaving time for it to dry down.

Yay!!!! Let me know how it goes!
I have used Mac face and body foundation for years I love how it feels on my dry skin.
Agreed! Although I have “fixed” my dry skin so it’s not bad anymore 🤗
I think building it up is key as well. Sometimes if I start out with too much, it just doesn’t set and just smears around on my face!
Agreed 100%!
Thank you so much for the concealer tip!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for this video. I finally understood that I had to keep rubbing more and more after it starts getting sticky. I used to stop once it started to get sticky. However, if you keep working it, it will give you a seamless no-makeup effect.
Whoooo!!!! So so so happy it helped! It’s such a stunning foundation and I think if more people knew they’d love it too. Glad it helped! ❤️❤️❤️
I love this foundation. I put it on my legs too.
I use this and defo find I get more coverage using my hands ! X
Yup yup yup! That’s how it’s intended to be used! 🙂
This is a great video thanks. I can’t wait to treat myself to this 💕
Whooo!!!🥳
I find the evy sunscreen great under the mac fb foundation!
Can you try the new Fenty Eaze drops and give a comparison?
It’s on the list!!!🤗
Try Tatcha silken.
Please tell me some tips to make face n body last longer. I can't get it to go past about hr 6
Hmmm if you followed the steps here, I’m not entirely sure. What is your skin type like? How do you get long coverage with other products?
I had no idea I needed to use my hands! Thanks
Have fun with it now!
Very nice explanation thanks a lot ❤️
You are welcome 😊

Yes the mac face and body Foundation isn't available on the Sephora website
Mac isn’t sold through Sephora. Just go to their website instead
@@DanaRipperton I actually don’t mind TO serum foundation. I would say for me the only downside is how dewy it looks throughout the day.

Nope, face and body does not have SPF but even if it did, you should be using spf underneath, as you’re liking not applying enough foundation to get the full protection
@@DanaRipperton ok 👌🏼 thanks 😊 I'll need to get some.. my fiancé and I are going to vacation in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 😍 for the 1st time in July, so I am preparing now
It's this foundation for oily skin?
Not at all! I would say it’s for all skin type as long as you prep properly.
F&B is the best, such a flattering long lasting finish, completely agree with your tips.
I also love it because one small bottle lasts me ages. On the odd occasion I want more coverage I mix a few drops of the MAC pro longwear concealer into it. I can't imagine ever using anything else * chefs kiss *
* double chefs kiss * it really is the best

Yes-fingers is really the best way to apply!
When i tried mac face and body it wasnt dewy enough for my liking 😒
I feel like this is a trend with you😉 Maybe you should look into getting some dewy skincare, as the foundation can only go so far most of the time.
