I would also tell you the different uses of fix plus and how I use it all year round in Indian climate.

My Review:
The fix+ spray mist comes in an unique classy plastic bottle packaging with a very secure lock pump making it oh-so easy to carry around and travel with. You just need to turn the pump mouth from the left to right and voila! It sprays a fine, even soothing mist.
mac fix+ spray review
The fragrance is light, fresh and extremely soothing no doubt for the presence of cucumber and green tea. Truthfully speaking, never would I have thought I would buy this but after the S.A sprayed it on my face after applying MAC studio fix compact foundation the matte powdery finish just vanished instantly and my cheeks looked healthy and luminous. I could see the difference vividly between the flawless makeup and the flawless radianceI just had to get this!
5 Different Uses of Mac Fix Plus Spray:
This can be used in various different ways
1. for a dose of hydration when your skin feels stretchy after makeup removal
4. to moisten your brushes before applying face products. Works great while using mineral makeup or powder foundations
5. and of course to refresh your skin anytime it needs!
It does not melt/wash away your makeup even the tiniest bit so in hot weather you just keep spritzing this through the day to refresh yourself.
Uses of Mac Fix+
Coming to the texture of the mist, its airy, light and absolutely non-sticky, non-greasy and not heavy in the least. You can just put this in your bag and it acts in all the ways mentioned.
Throughout summer I used the mist to just cool down my hot face with a single spray and in the upcoming winters I am going to achieve that glow with a finishing spritz.
The effect does stay for quite a long time, more of course during the drier and colder days but then again it’s a cakewalk to touch up.. it’s a total winner!

The cons of Mac Fix+ Mist:
Pricey really..I admit the ingredients are awesome and natural but still..Rs. 1150 for 100 ml of err..water??!

Do I recommend? Mac Fix Plus Spray has turned from being a total no-no product for me to something I do use throughout the year for various reasons and it has never yet failed me once! For an instant pick-me-up I just have to spray fix+ on my face once. The freshness just zaps my fatigue so yes I totally think for all its uses it is worth picking up for trying even though I know the price is a bit too much!
