MAC Strada dupe?

Hello ladies!

I finally decided to bite the bullet and get Strada to use as a contour colour only to find out that it was long discontinued (for some reason I thought it was pro-only).

I'm quite pale (with neutral-yellow undertones) and I have a hard time finding contour colours. For reference, I use 0 Porcelain in Sisley's Phyto-Teint Eclat fluid foundation (and I'm Porcelain Ivory in Laura Mercier). I never used MAC foundations so I don't know what shade I am in MAC.

Strada looked like a great option for me because it was so light and neutral. Are you aware of any other shades out there similar to Strada?

Thanks in advance

How about the Pro Sculpting Powder in Bone Beige? It's warmer than Strada, but as you have yellow undertones, it should work well for you.

Hmmm. I just looked at some pics online and it definitely looks promising. It actually reminds me of a Shiseido blush I've had for years (about 10 years, to be specific) and I'm about to hit the pan on. I'll be sure to check it out when I'm near a pro store.

Ta muchly for the suggestion!

I am an NW20 and I use strada for contouring. I'm down to the last few swipes of my strada blush. What is a good dupe for this that I can use?

Thanks!

I think Estee Lauder has a dupe somewhere in their blush range. I forget the shade name. Other than that... NARS Olympia (contour side), perhaps? MAC doesn't really have a dupe for it.
