MUFE or MAC foundation?

[singer82]

After my MAC mineralize cream fondation is gone I was thinking of trying a new brand. MUFE seems to be popular on here. I love MACs foundations, should I try out MUFE or stick with my MAC foundation? In your opinion which one is best? Keep in mind I have dry skin.
Thanks

Try Mufe, for sure. In my opinion it is the best. I have very dry skin (eczema) and Mufe is great. I tried nearly every Mac foundation and all that I ever got was a breakout. I still have a couple of blemishes on my face from Mac. So, I definitely say give HD and Face and Body a try.

I agree with Shontay, MUFE foundations are awesome. I've used mat velvet and HD and loved them both! Especially with their HD setting powder.

I don't have any MAC foundation experience, I've stayed away from them b/c of all I hear about them causing breakouts.

I'd try HD or face and body. Both are great.

MUFE foundations are my #1 favorites!!! I use the HD and Face and Body all the time and I've also heard really good things about Mat Velvet.

Sometimes I'll use MAC's studio fix fluid but I reach for MUFE 1st

Another vote for MUFE. I've used MAC in the past but MUFE HD is the best for me.

I'm about to switch to MUFE foundation too, but has their liquid foundation proven to be enough coverage for someone with blemishes like me?

^Mat velvet is full coverage, good for covering up blemishes.

Works great for blemishes--I have them and MUFE foundation goes on beautifully and covers completely... Though I do use it with concealer.

I have to disagree and say that MUFE HD was far the most terrible foundation ive ever tried besides the Smashbox one. It was very streaky and it didnt last a few hours. Im glad that i got a generous sample at Sephora because i would have been upset to buy the actual product. Definitely get a sample first because i hated it soo much. Im a MAC studio fix fluid gal ! (or if you have $$$ to spend, check out Guerlain Parure Extreme, another go to foundation for me)

I *would* agree that a sample is a good idea because it's a pricy product but I'm surprised you didn't like MUFE HD. I have terrible luck with foundations but not MUFE HD... And it stays all day for me. And I'm super oily. I do use setting powder..

Ok I'm done, I'm starting to sound like a commercial for MUFE.

I LOVE Mac's Face & Body foundation. You can only get it at a free standing or pro store and not at the counters. I've tried almost all the other Mac foundations and this one is probably the best one! I believe it's water based so it feels really light on the skin but you can layer it for more coverage. Once you set it with either the mineralized skinfinish or setting powder, it looks awesome. I first got a sample of it from the Mac store then bought a bottle (which lasts forever because it's 4 fl oz for $32 compared to MUFE's HD which is 1fl oz for $40)

MUFE face and body! It IS quite light in terms of coverage though you can build it up without it looking terrible. Tried HD- wasn't fond of it.

 

[Ikara]

MUFE HD always! after I tr¡ed it my Studio fix fluid felt like housepaint on my skin. I always use MUFE now, even on my clients. And they love it too!

I'm one of those who cannot wear MAC foundations. I really like MUFE's HD foundation and Mat Velvet foundation - the Mat Velvet for when I want more coverage and shine control.

 

[Cinci]

I like both MAC and MUFE foundations, however I prefer MUFE for the quality and color matching..

I use MUFE Mat Velvet the most cause I have oily skin.. But I also love MUFE HD for the flawless finish, and the MAC Face & Body Foundation for the natural, light coverage and it's water resistant properties.... and now that it's summer, I've started mixing my MUFE Mat Velvet with MAC Face & Body Mixing Medium to get the best of both worlds!

I also vote for MUFE. i have very oily face. i like Mat Velvet even though it doesn't last all day for me. HD foundation gives dewy finish on me. if you have normal skin, HD foundation or Face & Body will be good for you.

MUFE by far. I have tried many MAC foundations (studio fix fluid and powder, studio sculpt and the new cream SPF) and MUFE is by far better on my skin. I also find that there is better shade selection in MUFE for most ppl. MUFE HD in 118 is the closest match to my skin I've ever found.

My fave MUFE foundations are HD and F&B. I have combination skin for reference.

 

[singer82]

Hmmmm. So I was wondering if getting the MUFE HD for when I go somewhere. And use my MAC for every day and work?

 

[Angel_eyes]

personally i have to say i love both MAC and MUFE HD foundation...
Both of them have + and - ; MAC ofcourse is little bit chipper (i use Studio Sculpt NC25) and MUFE little bit more expencive (shade # 120)etc., i have also found that MUFE gives more natural, non-cakey with a slight glow look (but you have to layer it if you need more - buildable coverage), where as MAC - the foundation is full coverage - and i wear it only when i have bad breakouts.

So i would definetley vote for MUFE
