Hey lovelies! I have a quick question. I want to give the Revlon Colorstay Foundation a try but I don't know exactly which color to get. I'm a NC45 in MAC studio sculpt and C7 in MAC Studio Fix Powder+Foundation. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance

I use NC45/C7 and in Revlon Colorstay I use Caramel in the oil free formula.
Same Shade in powder also, even tho I hear the Colorstay powder has been d/c

Re: Revlon Colorstay Question NC45 MAC

I'm NC45 and I use Caramel too. It's a perfect match.

Remember that there is a formula for dry skin, and for oily skin.

I got the oily skin formula and it almost had a grayish tint to it, not to mention it matted me out too much.
I hated it.

So I like the dry skin formula better because it's moisturizing, and a perfect color match.

Hope this helps!

Agreeing with ms. kendra...The one I have says "for combination/oily skin" - the one for dry skin, the color is different, as is the texture. This one is undetectable on my skin.

that sounds about right my cousin uses toast in the combination/oily formula and she's NC45; I'm an NC50 and I use caramel also in the oily formula.

Thank you all so much! I'm going to buy the caramel and toast and see which is best. I might just have to mix the two. Thanks again gals you're all so helpful!

I'm a C7 and I end up having to mix Toast and Caramel in the Oily/combination version to the the perfect color. When I'm more tan in the winter I can get away with the Caramel. The other version seems to have shimmer in it? Maybe its just me?

Yes this. The dry skin one tends to run lighter than the oily colors.
