M.A.C Fix+

It is my be-all, end-all, must-have product.

And this is coming from a new recruit. I envy the folks who found it ages ago, and have known it's wonders for years. It's M.A.C Fix+, technically a makeup fixant spray for use either before or after you put on your face. But it's uses are many:

*Fixant - Put your makeup on and keep it there. All day.

*Light moisturizer

*Makeup refresher
*Post-gym glow of a different (less stinky) sort
*After shave emollient - Legs & pits for the ladies, face for the menfolk
*Blend your powder shadow/pigments with Fix+ for serious stay
*During/Post-Flight wake-up call (& TSA carry-on approved 100mL)
*Etc. ... etc. ... etc. Endless.

A blend of green tea, cucumber, chamomile and glycerin (fab for those flaky moments, mattifying and calming for the others), along with good-for-skin vitamins and minerals, gets all rolled up into one perfectly fine mist. Topper? Deliciously scented with the (male & female friendly) scent of Sugi.

And I know how the equation usually goes: M+A+C = $$$.

Nope. At $18, it's one of the cheaper prods they offer. And it doesn't only last a week, but a couple of months at least, with the option of making it stretch as long as you want it to... Although I would like to hear from the person who resists addiction.

I'll be back at the counter in the next, say, 60 to 90 days. I'll shell out eighteen clams for true love.
