Here you go, from left to right: Unbasic White, Nylon, Rose Blanc, Vanilla, Solar White, Claire De Lune, Soft Force. Pictures are taken indoors, with flash and without, and with no base.
I added the Solar White, Claire de Lune and Soft Force because I think those are similar to the colours you asked for.

Re: The NEW official Specktra swatch thread!
I'm requesting some swatches of Studio Fix Fluid. I bought NC20 but I think it might be too dark/orange. I'm a combo of MUFE HD 117/118/120; NARS Sheer Glow Deauville is a pretty good match and MAC MSF Liquid NC25 is a good match, too. Studio Sculpt in NC25 is a bit dark right now.
It doesn't have to be on similar skin tone, I just want an idea of the NC/W15; NC/W20 shades. If you have Studio Sculpt in NC20-25, that'd be of help, too.
-Thanks!!!

I've heard alot of nice things about the MUFE HD foundation and would like to try it, but it's so hard to match my skin to so many foundations (usually too pink/red for me). I unfortunately can't make it to a sephora store in the mean while so I can't ask for samples plus this foundation is pricey. I have more of yellow/golden undertones to my skin.
PLEASE and THANK YOU in advance! 
I swatched F&B in C2 next to 117, 118 & 120, for you.

At top is 118, in middle is C2, on left is 117 and right is 120. I say 120 is closest to C2.  118 is more beige while 117 & 120 are more yellow. Big difference between 117 & 118, huh? I think they should've made 118 a bit lighter, as it's so close to 120.
(I swear my hand is not that pink IRL!)

Re: The NEW official Specktra swatch thread!
I had requested a side by side swatch of MAC Kirsch and MAC Hipster a while back...now that I have both, I thought I would share the comparison with anyone else who was curious. This is the same swatch, in different lighting. One was taken (with flash) in darker lighting and this is what is more accurate, to my eye at least...indoors. The second one was taken in brighter lighting...and picks up more of a variation than the other one.

So different in the pot, so close on my skin (why do I have both?). Bronze comes out a bit darker and a bit redder than Tempting. Picture taken in what goes for daylight at this time of year and w/o flash. hth

Re: The NEW official Specktra swatch thread!
Hey sweethearts,
It'd be too great if someone could do a swatch on a paintpot (preferably Painterly) of
- Blackberry
- Yogurt
- and in between maybe Da Bling and Swish
That would be so sweet!
