I currently use Mac studio fix nw 25 and neutrogena skin clearing foundation in fresh beige. I want to try other brands but do not know which shade to get. If anyone uses these shades please let me know what else to get. Any input would be helpful! Thank you :)

I use the same shade of Revlon as well.... is it your perfect match? i am asking because... it matches my skintone perfectly when i apply it...but if i blend/ buff it...my face turns slight reddish and doesn't match my neck.. it also happens with other foundation...that is why i find it difficult to get the natural look !!!don't know how to sort it ! :confused1::panic::pullhair:

I love Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer and also her Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer. My skin has improved so much over the past year (finally found a skincare regime that works for me) and I don't need anything heavier then a light tinted moisturizer.
I do own Dior Airbrush foundation but don't use it much. It works well, but I find that I don't need the coverage.

MAC Studio Powder Foundation in NC25, NC30
MAC Mineral Powder Foundation - Medium
Max Factor Pancake Foundation in Medium Beige

I have a MAC QUESTION: MAC NC25/NC30 is easy to use but gives off a tad too much orange on my face (my face has yellow/beige tones and spots of ruddiness). My Max Factor matches quite perfectly. The MAC SAs seem to automatically go for the NC25 every time and it's just not working for me that great.

I want to specifically request either straight N or C - would you recommend... N, C, or even NW??
