Hi, I am new and I have a question. I think that I am nc50 but the Sephora color i.q matched me to 1r14 which is like Nw45 and most of the products that were matched for me are wayy wayy too red for me. Lancome Suede 500 matched beautifully on me.

I think you should look at the 1y14 products, if that is a number (I believe it is). I am about NC50 / C8 and I am 1Y13, so I can imagine 1y14 products must be much too red for you. the Lancome Suede 500 reference you gave is a 1y13, btw.

Oops - I meant 1r14 must be way red on you. Sorry for that mistake. Typing at work and keeping one eye on the opening to my cubicle lol!

Has anyone tried the new shades of the Maybelline Fit Me Matte & Poreless? Any new shades that you have liked? I used to wear shade 350 until it was dc'd, and 355 was too red. Findation.com says that Spicy Brown is a match for me but I am curious about 356 Warm Coconut and 362 Truffle. Thoughts anyone?

Is anyone in the NC50 / C8 range wearing any of the WnW Photofocus Foundations? If so, can I get a shade rec? The recommendations of findation and on the WnW website were a disaster.

Hello all,

Just wondering if there are any recommendations for powders. I currently use Fashion Fair oil control powder in Pecan, but most of the counters have closed and ordering online is impossible (always out of stock). I haven't worn MAC face products in years, but I was last colored matched at NC50 (in the summer time). My foundation currently is Bobbi Brown stick foundation in 6.5 Warm Almond/6.75 Golden Almond.

Are you referring to the medium/dark Laura Mercier Finishing Powder? Have you tried it yet? I was sort of waiting until someone here had opinions on it.
