The 187 doesn't let product fly around/dust up, mainly (I think) because it's not big and fluffy. Also, if you apply by making little circles (think "wax on, wax off"), product will go only where you want it to. Definitely a brush worth investing in, as it also wastes less product. HTH!

i love studio mist, and i really don't know how i did without the 187 brush, no streaking for once and i get good even coverage...i hope they don't up and decide to do away the studio mist, it would be my luck, i know it's perm but you never know with MAC.

I love the 187 brush, I have 4 of them. I just bought Studio Mist today so I will try it out w/ the brush tomorrow!

Thanks for the help girls

Looks like the 187 really does live up to its name!

Studio Mist coloring?

Is there anybody who is a NW20-25 who bought the light medium and the color looks weird?

For some reason it looks kinda orange when I put it on but after half an hour or so it finally settled on my skin the right shade... I know this sounds really weird, but I'm kinda confused LOL... could be just my mirror tho... and yes it was thr right shade for me/right colored/ right color matching etc etc...

I am a NW15-20 and swatched the light-medium in the store (they were out of light) and it was REALLLY orange on me.

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

I'm NC30, sometimes passing for an NC25, and the light medium looks orange even on me, so I try to apply only sheerly. I actually tried applying SFF NC25 over it but it ended up looking more weird! I do hope they reformulate them because I love the texture just not the colour. =T

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

I am an NW25 and can attest to the orange thing! I was thinking about getting some light to mix in with it in the hopes it will add some yellow to it.

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

Totally agree with everyone else. I'm an NW20 and it was so wrong on me. Very orange tone. The MA told me to use Light instead, but they were sold out.

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

Something I've been doing lately is applying a light dusting of Lightscapade so may face matches more of the "yellowness" of my skin... not the greatest, but better.. =P But I don't think that'll help NW'ers much..

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

Me too! I think I got Medium and it was wayy orange. I didn't know until I looked in a mirror in outdoor light. I returned it but I really didn't want to. I loved the way the finish looked.

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

all of them do that, thats why i didn't even bother

that and the fact that it settles into my pores

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

I got sent one of the Studio Mists a while back (light) and I always take everything and put a little in a vial to take with me, so I spray in the vial and instantly know it's not for me. Mine's a yellowy-orange color. ICK. I'll take a photo of it for you this evening when I get home (I've since sold off the Studio Mist itself - and sadly, the girl that got it complained about the same coloration even though I warned her in advance

).

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

I'm a W10...I've found that the light medium is a little more orange/pink while the light is more yellow based. The light medium was a little (ok waaaaaaay) to orange on me, but the light is a little too yellow. I can get the right color by mixing the two-or by dusting some NW powder over the light.

Re: Studio Mist coloring?

Seems like if you have to mix a foundation with other foundations and put light powder over it just so it can look ok then its not a good foundation in the first place haha

Pretty much. That and the fact that they just don't smell that great.

When did Studo Mist foundation become perm?

I remember it being LE when I bought it last summer around the sundressing collection, but when did it become permanent?

Re: When did Studo Mist foundation become perm?

It's not permanent at counters but it is available at stores. I'm not sure if all stores or just Pro stores.

Re: When did Studo Mist foundation become perm?

It's permament at all stores, except the blushes, those were all around LE
