- Jul 21, 2014 MAC Studio Careblend Pressed Powder in Medium – Swatch Although the colour looks fairly light, it blends in perfectly. I’m currently wearing foundations like Nars Sheer Glow in Stramboli, Bourjois Happy Light in 54 Beige and Urband Decay Naked in 4.5 (Although this is a little light for me right now!) and it blends over all over them.

Dupes For Mac Medium-deep Studio Careblend Pressed Powder Shampoo
Perfect to use during touch-ups. I use my Studiofix P+F in the morning before I leave and only bring my Careblend pressed powder. After, say, four hours, I’ll get a bit oily (note: only a bit because my wonderful primer does its job well) and then I’ll use my Careblend powder to powder up on certain shiny areas. The result is a matte, smooth face. I’m so in love with this powder!

Studio Careblend Pressed Powder, Sheer Select Pressed Powder and Blot Powder Comparison:
Studio Careblend: Perfect for touch up for Studiofix, blots oily areas, powder is very light and smooth, more pigmented than Sheer Select, can be used alone over concealer if you want a more natural coverage.
Sheer Select: Perfect for touch up for Studiofix, blots oily areas, sheer, not so pigmented, very light and smooth. Also, if you have a clear skin, it can be used alone. Those with blemishes must use Studio Careblend plus concealer if they want a clearer natural looking skin or Studiofix P+F for a matte, ultra smooth and clear skin.
Blot Powder: Blots oily areas, no coverage at all, can be used to blot oil on top of Studiofix P+F without adding extra powder and colour. Powder isn’t that smooth. Its main purpose is to absorb oil only.

Studio Careblend is perfect for those who want a dual purpose powder as it can blot oil on Studiofix without making your makeup heavy and cakey and it can be used alone for a more natural finish.
