Full Coverage ...

ok well this isnt exactly my personal experience but i wanted to know what you guys thought about this::
my aunt went to a MAC consultant and gave her a list of things that a makeup artist used on her. and the list showed full coverage on it. and the consultant apparently gave her studio finish concealer instead. even when my aunt had insisted that the compact that the artist was using was a bigger size and said she pointed at a case that looked like the studio tech cases. but the consultant sold her the concealer anyway. now my question is .. was the consultant right about give concealer instead of the full coverage or should we just return the product and get what was really on the list ?

well, the little pot concealer is full coverage foundation. (in a smaller package)

so technically she's right, but if you want to use it as foundation, It would be a waste of money to use the concealer.

Full Coverage isn't available at counters, only freestanding stores so that may be why they supplied the concealer instead. The Studio Finish Concealer is almost identical to Full Coverage. The only difference is that the concealer contains Titanium Dioxide as an additional ingredient to provide SPF15 protection.

Wait, doesn't studio finish concealer have SPF35?

You're right - current ones do have. I was looking at an old ingredient list.

On the store finder the freestanding stores are listed as MAC rather than a store name such as Dillards, Macy's or Nordstom.
