It's hard to say for the two reasons:
1) depending on which liquid foundation you are looking for they do not all match the same way. But if you are looking at the Studio Fix fluid it's widely known that they run darker than the SF counterpart (do a search and you'll find posts). I am C35 and I thought the closest in SFF was NC30.
2) also C3, C4 if my memory serves me correctly is the original line of SF MAC came out with. Since then they've added C30, C40 which confuses the matter even further. I don't know if there's a difference between C3 and C30? I imagine there must be....I strongly suggest you try them out in person but if you are no where near one and if pressed to my best guess is NC25 possibly even NC20. |
I was looking at the Select Foundation but I wasn't completely sold on that either. It is hard for me to get to a counter cause the closest one is a hour away so it makes switching foundations a total pain in the butt. That being said with the Fall weather my skin is feeling really dry with the Studio Fix powder.
I know that I asked a MA a while ago what the difference was between the C3 and C30 and she total me that the C3 was more for yellow tones and the C30 was for people with more olive tones.
If you are C35 that would mean that you are potentially more olive toned than I am but since the C3 is a little light on me and the C4 is right now a little dark on me and I am wondering if maybe I would fall into the same place as you into with the NC30. That being said you were talking about SFF and not the Select. I am not sure how close the color are between those two either.
I am tempted to order the Select foundation in NC30.
