I honestly think that Double Wear could survive a nuclear holocaust. Double Wear just plain lasts longer on my skin, no matter what happens. Where the paths of these foundations diverge is how they wear over time. Both foundations effectively cover my minor acne and any other blemishes. However, I have learned to apply Studio Fix Fluid with a foundation brush, as a cosmetic sponge seems to ‘suck up' all the foundation, with very little going onto my face. I always applied Double Wear with a damp cosmetic sponge, as I found this produced a more even finish than using a brush. On application, both foundations have a matte finish, although Studio Fix Fluid probably looks more satiny and natural than Double Wear.

I can easily achieve that flawless, ‘blank canvas' look with Double Wear, while this wouldn't be possible with Studio Fix Fluid without layering it on and looking cakey. I would argue that Double Wear is a full-coverage foundation, while Studio Fix Fluid is a medium coverage foundation.

If I were to use Double Wear again, I would probably try Bone, their lightest warm colour. However, I would say that Studio Fix Fluid in NC15 is the best colour match I've been able to find for my skin tone. That is definitely true, but the difference between the colours isn't as dramatic as it appears in the photo. You'll notice in this foundation swatch that Studio Fix Fluid seems to be a better colour match for me. As you can see in the product pictures, Double Wear comes in a square, thick frosted glass bottle which is quite sturdy (I've dropped it a couple of times without any problems), while Studio Fix Fluid comes in a cylindrical, more delicate glass bottle (which is apparently prone to breakage, although fingers crossed I haven't dropped it yet to find out).

One thing to note is that MAC does charge an extra $8 AUD for a pump for the foundation, which you can obviously re-use on future bottles.īoth foundations are packaged in glass bottles with a wide mouth and screw-top lid (before you buy a pump from MAC). This factor certainly influenced my decision to try Studio Fix Fluid to see if it might be a less expensive alternative to my beloved Double Wear. Double Wearretails at $68 AUD for 30 ml, while Studio Fix Fluid retails at $48 AUD for 30 ml. The first thing to note is that these two foundations are at different price points.
