Pros:

-nice to have foundation and powder together
-looks good on good skin
-MAC has shades to match skin perfectly
-did not make my acne worse

Cons:

-cakey
-clumps up around acne making it look less than smoothe
- does cover up dark spots at all
- settles on lines and makes them look worse

I honestly used to have perfect skin. When I turned 30 my acne broke loose and recently when I turned 32 it is the worst ever with deep pits, dark scars, and just horrendous cysts. I used MAC Studio Fix for many years with good coverage and then I realized, well duh! if you have perfect skin anything looks great. The true test is now when I am very ugly and getting older with many lines and wrinkles. This fails to cover well and cakes up in my lines. I would give it a one star, but for good skin it is a good coverage and did not make my acne worse

Pros:

Great opacity

Cons:

Causes breakouts
Looks cakey with touch-ups
No olive shades

I used MAC products for 5 years beginning in 7th grade, assuming they were the best of the best. Then I discovered quality makeup. Studio Fix will always be nostalgic for me. How it smelled, how nice it was to run out and open up a fresh one... That said, it looks cakey with any touching up, it made me break out like crazy - in fact, I never HAD acne before I used MAC foundation (granted I didn't hit puberty until after I started wearing MAC), and if you have olive skin? It may look good in the mirror, but once you step outside it looks like you used blush all over your face. Even the "C" shades.

Pros:

-well, MAC is a reputable brand, and make several great products
-lasts a very long time

Cons:

-if you have oily or combination skin, everywhere that you become oily will change to a darker (usually orange) color
-it will make you break out by the end of the day
-I found I became more oily than usual with this on
-felt very thick, was "cakey"
-expensive

I wouldn't recommend this product. It changes colors and will most likely make you break out. Also, I don't think that it is non-comedogenic but I could be wrong. I don't think it says on any of the packaging.
