MAC Cosmetics 1

I was initially overjoyed when I discovered MAC makeup. Great colours, great cover. HOWEVER I switched to their Studio Fix powder foundation and my face began to develop sores. No joke. Couldn't work out what it was until I switched back to what I was initially using (Clarins) and the problem cleared up straight away. Sure, MAC covered up the problem, but it also CREATED the problem. I do not have sensitive skin, and have never had a skin reaction to anything before in my life. I am really shocked, there must be some nasty ingredients in their products.

Hmmm, this particular product just might have had an allergic reaction, which can happen with any cosmetic product. The quality of the product is from the best line of cosmetics (in my opinion) and it has a huge parent company, Estee Lauder and all of their resources to make the best possible makeup.

Clarins, a French based independent cosmetics company may be exactly what you need...as it's obviously worked for your skin type before. Perhaps if you were to try another MAC product, and test the product on a small, inconspicous place on your body for an allergic reaction. If it passes the test, move one step forward and use a very sparingly amount to the body in which it is to be applied to.
