Pink undertones: perhaps. Pink tones as in superficial redness/Rosacea; no. In that case you'll rop
need something more neutral/warm toned to counteract the redness. But it's not that black- and white and simple. I used to think I was NW10 (so did MU

I joined in 2010, definitely whatever MAC collection was current, NARS, Illamasqua, Rock & Republic+
blushes/cheek products, Fyrinnae was THE indie brand, I was super into Inglot around then but I don't think they were widely available in the US yet.

Thanks for the numbering; I added numbers to the swatches; much easier for reference:D And yes, rop
I agree with you on 3, 4 and 7. Sadly the 4 (Nars SG #Siberia) is truly awful for my skin; drying, flat and matte. The 7 (Nars RCC #Chantilly) is nice

Foundation & concealer swatches on N(C)10 skin rop
I decided to swatch most of my current foundations & concealers. All quite heavily swatched, unblended and dried down so please take this into account

I had some but they have been d/cd, grrrr. And I do have a stick foundation which is a decent match+
but I would like to have a liquid fndt being a great match=P Nars Sheer Glow #Sibera comes close but my skin hates the formula; it's drying and not sh

Yes, based on these pics IMO this is a very good match; the best one so far. And in Findation it's +
being compared to ELDW 1W2 Sand which was a previous rec. Also MAC NC17 in SFF fndt and Illamasqua Skin Base fndt #3 (fair skin with yellow undertones

You can never have too many foundations;-) And at least you can mix & match;-) The 6.5 in the rop
Illamasqua Skin Base might be too dark so the lighter shades are more important to try. If all of those are too light, you'll know you need to try a/s

No, this is actually+
shade 128, I'm still waiting to try the 118 but now I suspect it might be too light but I'll try, have already ordered it anyway. Just haven't gotten
Lizzy282021-03-21T14:24:41.000Z
Is this 128 or 118? I assume you mean 118? Much better match. Althoug it remains hard judging rop
from pics... The last pic is the best. In the other pics it looks a tad too dark/yellow (golden). But you're def heading in the right direction; MAC N

Paper swatches tend to be inaccurate because foundation reacts different on skin due to skin pH, rop
skin undertone etc. And they dry much darker. If the 118 isn't a good match either I would try EL 1W1 or 1W2, MAC NC15/NC18/NC20 or MAC N1 or C1. Al
