Anybody know of a colour that would best suit my skintone? Perhaps, anyone who has similar colouring...MAC NC25-30, LM Sunny Beige, Clinique Superbalanced in Cream Chamois, yellow undertones! :D
I have heard great things about this foundation and I want to know what to buy once I go back home...I am NOT spending $40 bucks on this here! ;)
TIA!

Buff Chamois might be the right shade for you.
I have a bit of a yellow undertone myself.
It's a lighter shade, but darker than their Ivory.
There is the Oily and Normal skin formula.
I had good luck with this for several months, went through at least 3 bottles LOL! but eventually it did what all my foundations do... went darker or orange!
My skin is a foundation killer though for some reason I only have luck with minerals now.
Hope you enjoy it.

Just curious. Do they offer testers? If so, other than trying on my hand, I put some of my usual foundation shades , apply to a piece of white paper. And I match the colour from there. Applying on the skin is sometimes harder to see if it matches.
Colourstay is indeed good. The "lite" versions of the foundation is also good esp if you prefer lighter coverage
I don't know about shade but I just bought this foundation. I love it! Wish I had discovered it sooner!

This is a fantastic foundation, I always seem to come back to it. I have yellow undertones with a touch of pink and use Nude. You might want to try getting it from CVS or Walgreens, that way you can exchange till you find the right shade.

I'm roughly the same as you in MAC and I used to use Neutral however it seemed to turn a little darker on me after hrs of wearing so I bought Nude now that the sun's coming out more I think I will purchase Neutral again since Nude seems just a bit pale..Maybe I can mix the two.
Yes and it is indeed the best foundation i've ever used.

I use the Colorstay w/Softflex, and I think I'm about the same skintone as you Jess. I use the shade Sand Beige. You can try it and see if it works for you. When the new CS foundation came out, they sold little trial sizes for people to try out the shades. You can see if they still have them, but I haven't seen them since.

This was my HG makeup before they added the Softflex. Unfortunately, it started breaking me out once it was reformulated. :(
I'm super tempted to give it another shot.
I'm around NC25-NC30 and I used the Nude shade. I have to admit though, it was pinkier than my skintone.
