Re: MUFE High Def Foundation!

I finally went out to get a sample from Sephora. I'm waiting till I finish that to get my bottle. For reference, I'm C40 and am matched with #128

Re: MUFE High Def Foundation!

Any super acne-prone ladies here use this foundation? I'm pretty acne-prone and I'd like to try it, but I'm scared it'll make me break out >.<. Also, the MUFE counters here don't give out samples so I can't try it out for a few days before I buy it.

I am acne prone around my chin and have had no issues with the HD foundation.

Hehe you're looking at her! I am super acne prone.
All MAC foundations make me break out, Bare escentials makes me break out, everything haha.

But not MUFE HD. This foundation hasn't caused me to have a single break out. I used to get atleast one or two everyday!

but no more!

Changing my foundation was a big help, so was making sure I was using the right skin care, etc.

But this foundation has only helped my skin in general.
Id definitely suggest it.

Re: MUFE High Def Foundation!

blindpassion, you've been a great help in this thread! =) I took the plunge and bought MUFE HD and it's been awesome so far.

I have a question about the MUFE HD green primer...does it actually help the foundation stay on longer? I've read some reviews and mose say it's good at correcting redness, but it's not that great as an actual primer. I have combo, acne-prone skin and I'm looking for a new primer that keeps foundation on and makes it last longer...I've tried:
- Smashbox - clogged pores
- Monistat - clogged pores
- Shiseido - irritated and made my skin itchy
- MAC P&P SPF 50 - dried my skin out like crazy! to the point of flakiness
And when I use only the foundation, I eventually turn into an oily mess. I'd like to try the MUFE green primer to help correct some redness I have, but it'd be great if it actually works as a primer as well.

Re: MUFE High Def Foundation!

babyleese, the MUFE Green HD Primer is what I use

I have a lot of redness and discoloration problems in my face due to previous acne and scarring. I find the HD primers go on more like moisturizer and color corrector, and less like a primer - which is fine. I use the Green HD primer after I have cleaned my face and used a light moisturizer. After the HD primer, I put on what would be considered a real primer and less of a "corrector"

I use MAC's Matte (MUFE All Mat works too, but I like MAC's better.)

I put this mostly in problem areas, such as my cheeks where my pores are larger, my nose where foundation tends to sink into my pores, and anywhere I have bumps, as it smoothes them out and preps your face for a flawless foundation application

Let the HD primer dry before using another primer on top, put a VERY small amount of each on your face. If you use too much, it tends to build up and get flaky on your skin.

Let me know if theres anything else I can help you with.

I've got to say, I have serious redness and scarring, and after using the steps I just described... I get compliments on my flawless skin. If they only knew, hehe.

Although, I don't find this necessarily different from any other foundation experience I've had (where I like it a lot for a while and then rediscover my love for another foundation), I will not be rushing out to buy a replacement bottle at $40 any time soon. I do still use it once and a while, but don't find that it has the staying power as it seemed to when I first tried it. Go figure. Currently, I am generally not even using a foundation, just some concealer for circles and Natural MSF. I think the next thing I'm going to try is the Smashbox Halo Perfecting Powder.

Thank you so much for this post! I wore my HD foundation yesterday and I had the same effect as you, it looked & felt cakey and it did just look like it was sitting on top of my skin. I had been wearing it religiously for a while, just about everyday but I feel like the 117 is too light for my skin, it just doesn't match the rest of me. Although I do not tan anymore, my body still has a nice glow and my face doesn't match up with my neck & body anymore.
I've had a crappy breakout this past week because of Aunt Flo coming for her "visit" next week (TMI I know!) and all I used was my Studio Finish concealer on my problem areas, then put on the HD foundation, topped it with the HD powder and it looked so obvious.

I'm a 117 and I'm an NW20, much lighter than you. How does it look on your skin? It's actually too pale for me now.

Im extremely shocked that you are MAC NC 35 and MUFE HD 117.

That cant be right.
You can see by my avatar, I am white as a ghost.
Almost lighter then NC15... and MUFE HD 117 is my EXACT match.

How does this look on you?
I would take a look at it out in the daylight - it seems much too light for you.

I'm shocked as well. I'm NC25 and 117 is absolutely too light for me. In the sunlight, the difference between my face & the rest of my body would be very noticeable =/

Have to agree with everyone above. I'm NC15-ish, yellow undertones, and 117 is my best match. Could you maybe mean 127 matched you as an NC35?

117 sounds too light for you.. i'm NC35 as well & was matched to #128.

i'm less tan now, can anyone suggest 1 & 2 shades lighter than 128 to try? tia

Re: MUFE High Def Foundation!

I'm NC30-35 and use #123 in HD foundation. It's a perfect match

you may want to try 127 (this is for NC30/NC35)

also check out the MUFE/MAC Foundation Shade Conversion Thread, there was a post from Ikara for color matching.
