So a while ago I bought MAC Prep + Prime SPF 50. It was fine to begin with but recently it's seems to have 'split'. Anyone else had this problem?

Havent used prep and prime, but I havE bought their cream foundation before and that split.
Which is a shame, cause I love MAC make up.
Have you tried Benefit's Dr Feelgood as a primer? Its supposed to go over the top of your make up, but I find that if I use it lightly, then apply Ester Lauder Double Wear foundation, I get a really smooth peachy finish to my skin.

Have you tried the MAC pigment eye shadows?
Primer is a must, as they are quite messy, but the finish gives your eyes that WOW look!

If you haven't had it long then i'd take it back!!
Quite worried about my foundation now! My view is that if you buy a quality product that you should be guaranteed that quality for eg. with foundation 6 months or so.

Take it back and at least see what they say xxx

I'm with CeCe, if you havn't bought it that long ago then definatley take it back...if it's been over six months you may have a problem though, but you might want to check some consumer rights websites before you go to make sure you are armed with some good information!

I use both the Prep and Prime and the Studio Fix liquid and have never had any problems...mind you the Prep and Prime doesn't lasty long with me, but I can usually eek a good 9-12 months out of the foundation!

Also check where you have been storing it...things like it isn't on top of a radiator or on a shelf in direct sunlight etc.

Best of luck!

Thanks guys. Was bought around six months ago - but didn't use it in a while and was then wondering if it normally squeezes out split.

Yep - used DR Feelgood (used to work with them) but wanted something with a high spf. Normaly use clinique which is great for my skin type.

Will have to pop into chester this weekend - they're normally pretty good.

Sorry to bombard the thread, but seen as though its a mac thread I thought it would be suitable to post it here.

Sounds daft but I assure you its a real problem for me. I love my Mac mascara in Brown. But at the end of the day nothing gets it off. make up cleanser, toner, make up wipes, soap. It just sticks to my lashes like glue. This is great for durabillity when im performing but irratating on the eyes when its night night times.
Anyone else had this problem?? Any suggestions???
