I am currently wearing N12, but it is slightly too light. Chat GPt said to go to N18. I feel I have some redness in my skin. Would N 18 be a good next step. I do not like yellow tones at all. Please let me know as soon as possible. I am out of foundation. Thanks
- Asked by glyna
- Official Answer By MACThanks for your question! If the MAC Studio Radiance Serum-Powered Foundation in N12 is only slightly too light, N18 would be the next shade deeper and is a great step to try for a closer match. Since you mentioned redness and that you prefer to avoid yellow tones, you may also like prepping the skin with MAC Studio Fix 24HR Color Corrector in shade "Mint". The pale green shade helps neutralize redness before foundation application, giving you a more even-looking complexion. We hope this helps you find your perfect match!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
I've been using IT Your skin but better medium Neutral 33 and it has been discontinued which formula and shade of your makeup would be best to replace it with?
- Asked by Michelle
- Official Answer By MACThank you for asking! If you were using IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better Foundation + Skincare in Medium Neutral 33, a great match in MAC would be Studio Radiance Serum-Powered Foundation in NC35. If you prefer something a little more olive, NC37 could also work well. Medium Neutral 33 is a medium shade with olive undertones, which aligns really closely with NC35/NC37 in Studio Radiance. The formulas are also very similar - both offer medium, buildable coverage with a natural radiant finish and are skincare-infused with ingredients like hyaluronic acid for hydration and a skin-like look. We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q

Comments about NW22
I am 41 and this foundation is the best for dry, sensitive, aging skin!! It's the perfect partner to my skincare routine. I get so many compliments on my skin when I am wearing it. Full coverage foundation ages me.. this one is just perfection. It's buildable and stays all day even without setting. I insist you also get its matching primer!! That really locks is on there!
I would buy again.
It's a pretty good product.

Comments about NC17.5
After purchasing 17 bottles of foundation, all matched through brands' AI shade matching tools, I found it. Actually, MAC found it, near perfection in a bottle. It only took one try. I was thisclose to having to shade match in person! MAC is not only the classic. I can always count on product, they're innovating!
Love this moisturizing skincare ingredient foundation!
I was shade matched today at Ulta , I love MAC lipsticks and wanted to try this foundation. It's good for mature skin like mine and has dewy finish and skincare built in. That's a win win for me!
