Help with foundation color!

I went through many threads about similar issues but I am desperate right now so here is the deal:
I recently went to Mac to get Studio Moisture Tint.I am a NC20 and the MU insisted that I should get the shade "Medium" because Light looked ashy on me.Well it matches with my jawline,and looks nearly invisible on my forehead,cheeks etc but my neck looks lighter,especially in the daylight.So I really can't say that if I look like I am wearing a mask.I wanted to return it but the light seems to be out of stock everywhere in my country and MUs are like "you can't get Light,you look ghostly!!!".So I have it ,can't return it and on a budget so I have to make it work.
So what should I do? I don't understand how the color can look totally matched on my face and not with my neck while my face and neck have very close shades without a foundation?or do someone look like a clown when the shade matchedto the face but not neck?
Thanks a lot!!

I'd match it to my neck/chest and not to the face... I mean if you match the foundation to the face and the rest is a different colour you'll look weird specially when wearing cleavages or tops and having more skin exposed.

I'd really try to return it, it can't be sold out everywhere!! =(
