MAC Future Face

This is the second of the new MAC collections that has been released. This collection will fall under the shadow of the new Viva Glam Gaga release and it will not get the recognition that it deserves. At one point, Future Face was rumored to be an Asia release only but since it is on the United States website, I have to assume that the rumor is not true (unless a different set of products was released in that market). Future Face is a color collection that consists only of face makeup and nothing for the lips or eyes. It is quite easy for this one to be up-staged by Lady Gaga...

"MAC forges ahead with a three-in-one force: Powder, Foundation, and Tinted Moisturizer all together. A broad, all-inclusive shade range means MAC Artists can cover everybody, one beautiful conquest at a time. Call your clients most in need of convincing, and watch what happens!"

The new collection...

Studio Careblend/Pressed Powder - Formulated to provide a smooth, virtually invisible, fresh-looking finish, this soft cream-like powder is carefully blended to provide the skin with extra care, nourishment, and comfort. Available in eight shades to suit all skintones.

Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 Foundation - A modern foundation that combines a natural matte finish and medium-buildable coverage with broad spectrum UVA/UVB SPF 15. Comfortable and long-wearing: lasts for up to eight hours. Applies smoothly, builds coverage quickly and easily. Contains specially treated micronized pigments and soft-focus powders for a super-smooth look that helps minimize the appearance of imperfections. Absorbs and disperses oil. Contains special skin-conditioning ingredients. Oil free. Available in seven shades to suit all skintones.

Studio Moisture Tint SPF 15 - A light, tinted moisturizer with SPF 15 and other skin-nourishing ingredients. An easy one-step finish specially suited for the season, this sheer tint provides just enough coverage to even out the skintone while creating a flawless, protected, softly moisturized finish. Suitable for all skintones. Available in two shades.

190 Foundation Brush - Pro-quality. A foundation brush designed to create a smooth, even finish, flawless look. Works well with any MAC foundation, including Studio Fix and Studio Tech. Use to apply, distribute, and blend foundation into all areas of the face.

150 Large Powder Brush - Full and dense for dusting loose or pressed powder on face or body. This brush is particularly good for blush application with soft fibers that form a full, rounded shape. MAC professional brushes are hand-sculpted and assembled using the finest quality materials. They feature wood handles and nickel-plated brass ferrules.

Looks like I need to go to the MAC counter and see how these new foundations and tinted moisturizer compare. I am most interested in the Studio Careblend/Pressed Powder since I have never used a cream to powder formula before.
