Its a great question, but honestly, I cannot choose between my children--don't make me!

If you held a gun to my head, errr, I'd say, Northern Lights.
here is a swatch: http://www.specktra.net/t/129485/msf-swatches

Beigescapeade is a close second (as a highlighter) and Earthshine is my favorite for Bronzing.

I am about NC15ish right now. NC20-25ish in the summer. But, I have really pink cheeks, so sometimes I gravitate towards more like a NW15-25ish. My colorings are odd.

I'm between 15 & 20, neutral.

I'm new to MSFs. I got my first in 2011 and i've gotten 8 over the past 2 years, as well as 4 Mineralize blushes. Of the ones i have, my favorite MSF is Blonde.

I have:
Rose Quartz --- Warm pink, inner circle: lime, silver, white-pink, copper with micro-glitter (Semi-Precious)
Light Year ------- Peachy pink with gold shimmer (Heavenly Creature)
Redhead --------- Gold to salmon pink degradé (Naturally)
Porcelain Pink - Soft pinky coral with gold veining (Apres Chic)
Blonde ------------ Soft pink to rose degradé (Naturally)
Lightscapade -- Soft candlelit beige with multi-dimensional shimmer (Fall Colour)
Star Wonder ---- Plummy pink with multi-dimensional pearlized pigments (Heavenly Creature)
Earthshine ------ Tarnished bronze with gold pearlized pigments & pink reflects (Heavenly Creature)

Mineralize Blushes
Sakura ----------- Lavender pearl with deep magenta heart (Quite Cute)
Miss Behave -- Light warm beige with pearly mint green heart (Quite Cute)
Solar Ray ------- Peach and gold melange (Heavenly Creature)
Stratus ---------- Amethyst and golden brown melange (Heavenly Creature)

I now have a wishlist of older LE MSFs (& 1 Blush) i'd like to find:
Hand-Finish Mineralize Blush ------- Light pink with deep gold veining (Colour Craft 2009)
Perfect Topping MSF ------------------ Pink/ peach/ lavender melange (Sugarsweet 2009)
By Candlelight MSF -------------------- Golden pink-beige (In the Groove 2010)
Semi-Precious Pearl MSF ----------- Beige champagne base with inner circle of white, plum, bronze (2011)
Semi-Precious Crystal Pink MSF - Pink champagne base with inner circle of pink, mid-tone green, bronze (2011)

Edit to Add:
And my favorite finishing powder is Mineralize Skinfinsh Natural in Light Plus.

Forgot about Perfect Topping. I like that one as much as Beigescapeade. Maybe slightly better. I think a harder question would be, which mineralize product do you like best: MB, MES or MSF?

My all time fav is Redhead =] I can use it on a lot of skin tones and its the perfect balance of pink and peach. I miss the striped MSFs MAC used to do!

Honorable Mention:

Earthshine! A lot of people seemed to overlook this one when it came out last year. A swirl of plum, bronze, and gold. Such an amazing shade for WOC.

I really have to try that one properly (Porcelain Pink). I only swatched it on the back of my hand and used a little along with SR, but SR overpowered it of course.

yes!try it you'll love it.i didn't get SR because i have redhead and hardly use it as well,since it's too frosty to wear it as a blush and emphasize some scars from acne that i have on my cheeks:(

You guys gave me an idea to layer Porcelain Pink over Redhead and try and make a less metallic/frosty but still Coral MSF with gold shimmer...this may reignite my love for Redhead...which always disappointed me that I didn't love as much as it deserved, esp. since I am pretty much a redhead.
