love it
Lasted the 8hrs of the day
Loved this foundation for my dry skin. I prepped my skin as usual, exfoliating wash, toner, serum, sunscreen and then this on top with mu foundation brush. Loved putting it on cause it would slide perfectly like butter. I didnt like how the tip of my nose nor chin looked so i had to remove some. Thats only because I didn't exfoliated my blackheads right. Everyone in my family was complimenting my skin during the day. And i was amazed how beautiful it still looked at night because i washed it off. I am 42 and nw13 color was perfect for my skin. I highly recommend it. It doesn't feel so light at first but trust it

dewy and blend able. lasts all day
Leaves my face smooth, not cakey
Absolutely love this Foundation. I've tried so many other brands but always made my wrinkles more notable & it looked so cakey, heavy & thick. Not with this one. I truly recommend.
Weightless Glow!

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

- 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.

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.
