I love this foundation. Please note - comments regarding this being a concealer are 100 per cent incorrect. This product was essentially the first ever foundation which was released. Max Factor used the exact same formula to create their "Pan Make-Up" (Max Factor coined the term "Make-Up in the 1920s). Pan Make-Up was used for actors working in Technicolour as the first run with colour film produced either brick red or blue looking faces, thus this product prevented that. Because it is oil based it has to be set with a powder every time or it will move around on the face but otherwise what you have here is Max Factor's response to the release of their Pan Make-Up. The story goes that actors who used this for stage and film work loved it so much they took large quantities of it home for their own use and the product soon made its way into elite circles of the general public. Due to demand the same formula was released in the form of Max Factor Pan Stick. As it has no SPF it can be used for high definition work, so if you are spending all day getting your picture taken then this will not give you the white glare caused by titanium dioxide SPFs in other foundations, instead your face will have a lovely soft focus hue. One little secret you may want to pick up on - remember this is a very old and ancient product. In view of this I recommend that you use an equally ancient setting powder and for this I would highly, highly recommend Corn Silk Powder. The combination is amazing. Try it for yourself. Corn Silk Powder is cheap as and can be obtained pretty much anywhere.

Interesting advice. I use a rice powder to set mine and it is a formula from the late 1800s/early 1900s and it works great. A couple of other hints...after applying Obaji sunscreen and letting it absorb, I apply Pan stik over a very light loose powder application, this seems to help it adhere all day (look up "foundation over powder" on YT for more info). I let it sit for a minute or two before blending and I blend with my fingers. Doing those two things helps it blend easier because it warms with my skin and just becomes creamier. I have also found that in addition to the old fashioned rice powder, a liquid rouge also blends well over it and lasts all day. I get both my rouge and powder from LBCC apothecary.

I swear by this foundation....just love it!! I find it just melts into the skin so easily...no cakeyness and glides on great. Goes on lovely with your hands or sometimes I use a beauty sponge. I wear it for work all the time. It's my go to foundation.

Does it really matter whether it's marketed as a foundation or a concealer? Mac Select Coverup is supposed to be a concealer yet a lot of people swear by it as a foundation. Lipsticks aren't marketed as blush but they work just fine, blush isn't marketed as eyeshadow but works great. If it doesn't work for you as a foundation, try it as a concealer. If it doesn't work as either, swap it on makeup alley or give it to a friend. Step away from the box.

@TheBlueOrPink It's nota concealer, but you could used it as one. It even says on the Max Factor website that it's a foundation.

In complete agreement with you! I have used the Max Factor Pan Stick for around 16 years... (showing my age!) ... since I was in high school - and I still purchase it today - It really is one of my staple items!

Im from America and this was my holy grail foundation for years. Then for some reason a company that started here and was always doing very well decides to stop selling here. Now I have to pay sometimes double or triple the price that is charged there for the same thing. Even though it is expensive I will never stop buying this.

I just learned that Walmart sells MAC pan stik online and you can have it sent to your Walmart location to pick it up. For example: www.walmart.com/ip/Panstik-Foundation-25-Fair-0.4-oz-Foundation/52075274. I did notice that the "fair" is $2 more. Figures since that's what I would need. BUT it's still under $10.

I am the saddest person in the world about this, I have used this make-up for years. Now, I cannot find it anywhere, where I'm from ! I can't buy it offline because I don't have a card account. Every other foundation i've tried sucks! Nothing I use covers up acne, blemishes, or scars. I hope I find it again, SOON!

It IS a foundation, like you say it says so on the back of the tube! I bought one of these last time you mentioned it and it's great for me, though also a shade too dark so I will try the MSF tip (I have the light one too, I feel like a make-up stalker lol!). Thanks!

You are my fave make up guru by far :) (it does help that your clearly a yorkshire lass and have very similar style to me xD ). Thank you for helping me make yet another make up descision, I'm gonna get one tomorrow. Do you think if I combine this with the white Barry M creme foundation stuff it will help it match my skin tone (I'm very fair). Sorry for the long message lol x

This is LITERALLY where the word "Make up" comes from! They INVENTED make up! THIS IS NOTTTTT A CONCEALER!!!!!!
