Make Up For Ever (MUFE) Discussion

Hey Im wondering if someone can tell me, Ive got quite oily skin and I wear MAC NW20 or N4 studio fix powder and I prefer a liquid foundation but MAC doesnt have a liquid matte foundation so I wanted to try the MUFE one. My problem is I live in Australia so there is no way I can test the foundation to get the right colour, so I was wondering if anyone might have some idea what MUFE foundation would suit me best?

I'm a MAC NW20 and the MUFE HD in 115 is a perfect match for me. 117 is much too yellow for me.

Also, if you like a matte foundation, MUFE mat velvet is very matte. You might want to look into that one.

ladies, today I wore mufe #33 (matte gray) with Winkle from Mac. It was incredible. I got so many compliments. I love both of them, but I want to say that #33 is THE best gray shadow I have ever come across. Gray, after blue, is my favorite color so I am thrilled to have found one so immensely pigmented and flattering. All you have to do is tap it with your brush and you have more than enough. MUFE has some of the best Matte shadows on the planet.

I'm going to have to check that out - I love gray too, and good gray eyeshadows (and liners), are few and far between.

Re: MUFE mat velvet+matifying foundation

I think it's a consensus that #35 would match you. if your on the lighter side (NC30), definitely get #35, but if you're a bit darker (NC35), you may want to consider #40.

I see that your also from Cali. you might also want to take into consideration if u tan or get darker in summer. Unless you already have a summer foundation.

Actually shade 40 is lighter than 35. It makes no sense, I know! But 40 is slightly lighter and yellower (so, is closer to NC30). Shade 35 is closer to NC35. I have swatches of both 35 and 40 in the MUFE thread in Cosmetics Discussion, comparing to MAC shades in NC25, NC30 and NC35.

Where and which MUFE foundations to get samples of?

I am dying to try out the MUFE foundations, but they're not available here in Denmark anywhere at all.

So I need to find somewhere outside of Denmark where I can get samples of the HD and Mat Velvet foundations, that I want to try. Does anyone know where there are samples available?

Also which colours should I try in the two formulas? I am around NC20-25 depending of the season. In Studio Fix Fluid I am actually NC 15.

Hi Katjamo,

Makeup Provisions here in the UK will do sample pots of MUFE foundations, if you give them a call. There is a small charge (I think maybe 70p or something) plus postage but it's well worth it. Here's the contact details:
Makeup artists provisions
I can't offer much advice in terms of shades but if you check out the shade descriptions in this thread and on the US version of Sephora.com it may be some help.

P.S. I was in Copenhagen for work last week, you have a lot of snow in Denmark right now! Great city though, it was very nice to visit

Thank you so much! That sounds great. I will call them.

Yes we have a had a crazy amount of snow here. I have never seen anything like it. Normally we hardly get any, but this year we have been covered in snow since december. But thankfully it's almost gone now. I am glad to hear you liked my city.

No worries. If they no longer do samples, you could also try Guru Makeup Emporium, which is where I'm buying my MUFE nowadays (also based in London). Their prices tend to be very slightly cheaper although I've no idea if they do samples - it wouldn't hurt to ask them though.

And to answer your other question, I work for a brand that is originally Danish

. The factory is still located in Kvistgaard so occasionally I come over to visit. This was the first time I had some time to look around Copenhagen though, it was great!

Alright, I've decided that I don't like the HD blush. I can't seem to blend it in properly. It doesn't sink in. Maybe I need to up my application skills. I don't have time to do all that work in the morning. Bummer, b/c I love MUFE. Don't let this discourage you ladies, though. I'll stick to powder blush.

It might be a too light on you. I can wear both #40 (which is lighter than #35) and #35 and I'm about NW25 in MAC and #32 in F&B. Try one shade darker perhaps
