MAC Cosmetics Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation

Three decades after its debut, M·A·C’s Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation is stepping into a new era. Already crowned the #1 pressed powder foundation in the UK, this cult favourite has been reimagined with a fresh formula, sleek refillable packaging, and an inclusive shade range that now spans 78 options.

The relaunch brings major upgrades to the fan-favourite. The new formula delivers a blur-matte finish with 24-hour shine control, while still feeling featherlight on the skin. M·A·C has done away with talc and added skincare-level performance—think sweat- and humidity-resistance, seamless colour that lasts all day, and a texture that smooths pores without caking or creasing. It also resists greying on deeper skin tones and doesn’t cause blemishes, making it a staple for oily and combination skin types.

Terry Barber, M·A·C’s Director of Makeup Artistry, summed it up best: "Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation is a major upgrade... the finish creates a new type of matte skin that’s soft-focus, smooth and devoid of any powdery residue."

The packaging is as considered as the formula. The new compact is refillable, helping cut down on plastic waste by 45% with each repurchase. And with shades now perfectly matched to Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15, finding your ideal foundation across formats just got a whole lot easier.

The updated Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation is now available at all M·A·C locations and online, priced at £34.
