MAC Studio Sculpt Defining Powder is a new item from the "Studio Sculpt" collection and it comes in 8 different shades: Light, Light Plus, Medium, Medium Plus, Medium Dark, Medium Deep, Dark, Dark Deep. It retails for $32.00. The product is not yet available in Italy because I checked the italian website and I didn't find it at the Studio Sculpt section.
As stated on the MAC website:
"Studio Sculpt Defining Powder offers sheer, barely-there coverage, immediately correcting uneven tones, leaving skin smooth and sculpted without looking powdery or cakey. Colour glides on with a unique, velvety touch, in eight new shades from Light to Dark Deep. Gel formula infuses the powder with exteme creaminess, providing enough structure to maintain a defined, refined finish."
"Barely there gel formula provides sheer coverage in weightless application. Extremely silky and cream-like, it encompasses the best properties of a liquid and powder for a sculpted look without a heavy makeup feel."
Unfortunately only 3 shades were available (Light Plus, Medium Dark and Medium Deep) so I ended up on buying the lightest among the three just to give it a try. I thought since it's a bit lighter than my skintone I can use it to set my undereye concealer and brighten that area.
Packaging:
Nothing out of the ordinary MAC powders. It comes in a thin compact without a sponge or a powder puff included, but it does have the standard mirror. It contains 10g/.35 oz.
It has that nice design imprinted on it just like the Studio Sculpt Shade and Line compacts.
Swatch and Texture:
(Light Plus)
It is extremely smooth, silky and velvety. The texture is light and soft. If you stick your finger in it, you can definitely feel that it is between a foundation and powder but if you use a brush it is apparently a powder.
If you look closely you can see just a subtle and slightest iridescence in it. That subtle shimmer supposes to catch the light and make your skin appear soft focused, smooth, and not dull-looking. It also minimizes the appearance of pores making them less noticeable.
It doesn't have a scent on it.
In my opinion, it is a great product perfect for setting your foundation. If you tend to be oily, it will help control the oil a bit.
I will definitely re-purchase this! :D
