MAC Fix+

I bought this from a blog sale thankfully, I’d have been mad to pay full price for this. Don’t get me wrong. Plenty of people love this product and good for you if you do. I just can’t quite get my head around it. It’s essentially some posh water with added vitamins, minerals chamomile and other bits and bobs housed in a spray bottle. It’s £12.50 for 100ml.

I googled around looking for ways of using this. You can use it to foil eyeshadows (I find tap water works just as well), to set makeup (I find it makes it slide off faster) or just as a hydrating treat for your skin. It needs using up so what I’ve been doing is when I get in after work I’ll use a makeup remover wipe to get off the bulk of my foundation and then spritzing my face with the Fix+. It’s nice and refreshing on hot sweaty days although I haven’t noticed it really doing anything to my skin. 

It’s cooling on hot summers days, although we haven’t had many of those yet in Scotland. Needless to say I wouldn’t bother repurchasing. I’d get the same effect splashing my face with cold water. And yet I feel that I’m missing the point here. It is a bit of a cult favourite so maybe I’m wrong? Let me know if you love or hate this. How do you use it? Where am I going wrong? X
