Shade 13 Professional For Mac

So many of you are confused as to what the difference is between MAC's foundation shades (C, NC, N, W, NW). Its pretty simple unless your really rubbish at remembering!

C - Stands for Cool. Best for yellow, golden olive skin. NC - Stands for Neutral Cool. So is best for skins with a slight golden glow. Common color. N - Stands for Neutral. Common color.

(only available in Studio Fix Foundation) W - Stands for warm. So best for pinkish skin.

NW - Stands for Neutral warm. Pink beige skin. If you have irish in your blood you could be W or NW.

Ive found MAC foundations to be so easy to apply. Unlike most foundations it doesnt dry as quickly so its very much easy to blend and smooth out. It also doesnt have that powdery look afterwards so its great for all skin types including dry.

Most of all there isnt that awful shine you get with some foundations, even if your skin is oily MAC foundations seem to work with every skin type. You can layer the foundation up or keep it to simply not there bare. They are a great way to get your perfect match with their personal colour chart that Highstreet Brands just simply dont have. I myself go between NC30 and NC40 - a great way to mix. Kate It should really be mentioned here that MAC does NOT adhere to the beauty world standard in their definitions of warm and cool (as Anonymous above has mentioned). Basically every other makeup company sticks to the real definitions- that warm skin tones have yellow/olive undertones and cool skin tones have pink undertones, not the other way around. MAC uses the reverse for some reason, but they are the only respected makeup brand that I have seen that does this.

So, just a warning that people should NOT use MAC's definitions of warm and cool when buying ANY other foundation (aside from MAC's, of course). I hope not too many people see this guide and think that these definitions of warm and cool are the standard because there is no warning to the contrary! Anonymous The closest shade to my skin I can be matched with is NC42, however I have actually noticed, particularly in photographs, that this foundation actually makes me look peachy/pink. At first I thought it was the lighting, but then I kept taking photos in different lighting and realised it was the foundation.

At first when I put it on, its nice and golden, albeit maybe a tad too yellow, but then after about 3 hours on, it starts to look peachy/pink/red and dull. Its definitely not my primer, or my moisturiser. I have mainly golden undertones, no red or pink at all in my skin.could I actually be a C shade and not NC? I've only recently learnt that the 'NC' shades of 'Golden Beige' skin actually include peach, yellow, and gold undertones. For someone who has no pink or red in their skin, I think this could be the problem.

My ‘Evening’ and Favourite for Filming Foundations. Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder Foundation is Medium 6 I thought it might be a useful tool for any of you out there who are of a similar colouring and/or skin type as me, medium skin tone with warm, yellow undertones, for me to list all the foundations I’ve used and what shade I am in each one when I am tanned (equivalent to MAC NC35-NC40) and when I’m not so tanned (equivalent to MAC NC25-NC30). I’ve seen many of these threads on the internet and find them very useful so I hope this may prove useful for some of you out there. Selecting the right shade of foundation can be a difficult task at the best of times but when you cannot access the foundation to swatch it, things become even more tricky.

Unless you’ve done some intensive research online, there is a big chance that you will end up ordering/buying the wrong shade of foundation and there’s nothing worse than throwing your money down the drain (unfortunately, unlike our American counterparts, in the UK, we aren’t able to return cosmetics if bought in-store, even if it’s not been used, and if we buy on-line, we are only able to return if it’s not been used). I’ve also found with some foundations is that what I previously thought was the right shade of foundation for me is no longer the case as it’s the classic case of what colour your skin is on the tan scale when you first try and subsequently buy the foundation. More often than not due to my love for galavanting across the globe in hot and tropical climates, I am sporting some sort of tan whether it’s just a hint of colour from a long weekend away (4 on the scale of 1 to 10, equivalent to MAC NC30-NC35) or whether it’s a deep, dark, two-week tan which is the result of being severely sun burnt (11 on the scale of 1 to 10, equivalent to MAC NC40, or even NC42!) from the typical first day of the holiday mistake “it’s not that hot/sunny so I don’t think I’ll bother applying/reapplying my suncream”. Classic school girl error. Do I ever learn?

Well clearly not. I am probably the palest (by my standards anyway) I’ve been in a long time and subsequently I’ve been finding that with a few of my foundations, they are now a tad too dark for me. So if you’re an NC25- 30 or even an NC40, or if you have no idea what I am talking about but are of light to medium skin tone with warm, yellow undertones, then find your foundation shade (MAC NC25-NC30-NC35-NC40 equivalent) right here.

I will continue to add to the list as and when I try out new foundations/tinted moisturisers/BB/CC Creams. Feel free to continue the thread by adding your own foundation shades. Shop this post. Thank you for replying. I wouldn’t have guessed Nude in hourglass(I was looking at all the different foundation stick included)!

I was looking at the golden shades but they didn’t seem quite right. The Koh gen do aqua 143 when I’m not tanned suits me perfectly. Tanned is a different story.

And I can get paler too but always yellowish. My skin color seems to be always changing.

Since they don’t make it darker I can’t wear that til I fade a bit. Which is about now. Hopefully they come out w deeper shades soon as I love the formula and finish. Feels and looks so natural.
