No I forgot... Lol ! When I did remember I already had on my foundation .... Matchmaster . I'm not going anywhere today, just lounging so when I get dressed I'll put it on and see what u think.

I am totally going to bug you about this until you try it lol. Plus, I want to know what you use to set it with.

Saaaaaaaagehen... Lol !! Finally I tried the sample I had Ok here's me wearing Macao in Sheer MATTE. I don't have a sample of Macao in Sheer Glow so this weekend I'll go and get a sample. I think in the sheer matte Macao matches me.... What do u think??

 

[sagehen]

^^I like it - it's a good match, especially the bottom half of your face to the neck. What did you set with? I really like the finish. I have enough of my sample left to try again - on a weekday this time and wear to work to see how it holds up. I think I am picking it up during Sephora VIB. That is all.

Yeah my neck is darker than my face... Ugh I hate that... !!!!! Yeah I like the Macao in matte formula ... I'm going to class tonight so I'll see how it wears and report back. Now I def want to try the Macao in sheer glow (just to double check it against New Guinea) I'm suppose to go to Nordstrom on sat and I will see if they have a sample of the New Orleans

All this talk about this foundation may have me going to get a sample. I use UD naked skin but you ladies have got me over here like yeaaaaaaa let me check it out lol

omg you look soooo pretty!!!!

 

[BeautyByLele]

Bbenive1920, Thank you. Yes the Nars foundation is really nice. Get a few samples of different colors and test it out. I'm going to buy it real soon

Oh Sagehen- I just set it with my MSFN in dark. That's what I set all my foundations with

Good to know - I used my Sephora Microsmooth powder, which is supposedly a dupe. Yay! I swear after this foundation I am going on a no-buy for foundation. Well, except for maybe one.

 

[MissTT]

Do you know which color in the Microsmooth is a dupe for Dark? Ugh, why am I even asking. I don't think I like MSFN. I had Med Deep and exchanged it for Med Dark and it just does nothing. Luvlydee said she found Dark to work really well for her so I'm thinking I need to go darker b/c I'm a half shade darker than her.

 

[sagehen]

There isn't a good corellation between the Sephora shades and the MAC MSFN shades. I am thinking 56 - Mahogany for you. I am Deep Ebony. Those colors are so bad...I am no one's ebony. And what about real ebony sistas? Sephora ain't got no time for that, I guess lol. Oh, and don't go darker than Dark - I wear Dark and I am a couple of shades darker than you are.

I agree I think I am along the same lines and I am a nw45 I use MSF dark or deep dark depending on the season. However sephora doest have very many shades that reach the darker women but the microsmooth is a good dupe in my opinion for the msf.

I just meant I need to go darker than what I currently have; like MSFN Dark. Dhari said the lighter shade didn't give her the same kind of finish.

Miss TT , iirc you're lighter than me so won't Dark be too "dark" for you ? I was thinking about trying one shade up from MSFN because sometimes it becomes a lil red on me

 

[sagehen]

OK, MissTT that is three votes against you going darker than Dark MSFN. You see that?
