Hi! I really want to get some help in the foundation department from girls who have the same skin-identity crisis as i do. NC42 is acceptable on me, but it's a tad too light. NC45 is wayyy to orange on me. So i've concluded my skin is NC42-44. At the moment i have more golden undertones than yellow. My skin is combination/oily. I haven't owned any high end foundations, but would really like to start trying some. I tend to pick out foundations that are a smidge too dark on me, and i really want get something that is spot on. I have my eyes on NARS Sheer Glow in Syracuse at the moment. Any other suggestions? It would help a lot if you girls list out a bunch of foundations you've experimented with, the shade and result produced. From there on maybe i can rule out what to get and what to try. Including drugstore brands in your list would help a lot too. Thank you so so so much!
The foundations i've tried so far (that i can remember):
MAC Studio Sculpt in NC42 - tiny bit too light
MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NC45 - too orange
L'oreal True Match in W7 - tiny bit too dark
Maybelline Fit Me in 315 - tiny bit too dark
Bourjois 123 Perfect Foundation - way too dark
Revlon Colorstay Combination/Oily Skin in Toast - too dark and orange
