This foundation really does its job! Shade perfectly matches my tone. It's a very light weight. Applying pressed/loosed powder with it is no must because it looks so natural.

After using the Mac Radiance Foundation for two months, I'd rate it a 6.5/10. It's moisturising and very buildable, almost like a skin tint. It feels soft and lovely on the skin. If you have clear skin with minimal blemishes, this foundation will be great for you. **However,** this foundation is not suitable for oily skin. It also doesn't perform well in summer heat and humidity-you'll find yourself needing to reapply powder several times throughout the day. I plan to revisit it in the winter when it's freezing cold, but for now, while the sun is shining, it's challenging to manage.

Not to be dramatic, but I suffer with very oily skin and studio fix was the only foundation that helped with oil control and did not separate - I used it for over a decade. Unfortunately the new '24 formula is not good for very oily skin. I'd image for drier skin types the new formula would work well. Definitely not longwear/matte for oily skin - super disappointed. I only found out about the change after I purchased and tried. Bring back the origional for oily folks ;(

I purchased MAC Studio Radiance foundation as soon as it launched in the shade NC 42, based on my usual shade in other MAC foundations. I found the shade to be significantly darker. Then I chat with the online agent and bought NC 40 per her suggestion in April 2024. However, I found both shades to be significantly darker than expected. After watching a beauty influencer's review today, I learned that NC 30 might be a better match for my skin tone in this particular foundation. As these 2 foundations are unused and were purchased in 2024, I would like to know if it would be possible to exchange them for the NC 30 shade as I have been unable to use the products. I understand the exchange policy of 60 day, but I wanted to check if an exception could be made in this case, as I have been unable to use the products and a little disappointed of the color match.

This foundation is lovely, the texture and the feel is great, especially for people with dry skin however I've always been an nc35 and that's what I purchased but it's too dark. You have to go get color matched for this, wish I did, I bought mine online.

Nourishes my skin during the winter season. Great color match. Only wish it was more transfer proof since I'm in healthcare and sometimes wear a mask. I have been loyal to MAC for 25years and will never stray.

I wanted to try this new product. The Studio product I was using was discontinued . I switched to Studio Fix every wear. But I thought I'd try this Radiance Serum. What I find with MAC is that the colors are inconsistent from one product to another This NW22 is at least 2-3 shades darker and more yellow/gold than any other NW20 or 22 that I've used. It also feels strange on my face -- like there are chemicals in it. I have to take it back.

This is one of my favourite foundation for every day use. Easy to blend and ready to go. It gives me the flawless look that I wanted.
