Will update this post as I experiment with more foundations...

Skin type: combination (normal to slightly oily, sensitive, normal to dry in winter)
frequent tendency to look either sallow or flushed (due to sensitivities)

Skin tone: medium-dark, golden/olive undertones

MAC Studio Fix Powder: C7 (HG Powder foundation!)

Prescriptives (HG line!!):
Virtual Skin: Real Antelope
All Skins MMU: Level 4 Warm Medium
Virtual Matte: Fresh Antelope
Anywear Powder Foundation: Antelope (a little light due to spf)

Clinique Superbalanced: #15 Golden
(got a sample of this; a little dark, may try different shade based on undertone)

Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick: 6.5 Warm Almond
(slightly orange, so I don't wear too much in the winter and Golden is too yellow/light)

Nars Sheer Glow - Macao (Med/Dark 4), works better in the summer, will try the lighter Tahoe or Cadiz in winter

Becca Stick Foundation - Syrup
Becca Tinted Moisturizer - Tobacco

Is anyone NW45 and using Milan Minerals. I'd like to know what my match would be so I can wear the powder as bronzer? Thanks!

Not too many matches but hoping it'll help someone out.

MAC studio Fix C35

Equivalencies:
MAC studio Fix NC35 (honestly it's pretty much interchangeable with C35)
Shiseido Stick/Fluid Foundation 040 Natural Fair Ochre
Lancome Photogenic Skin-Illuminating in Buff (4) (slightly more pink toned but lovely)
Lise Watier Teint Mousse Matifiant Foundation in Beige Beige
Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation 6.5 (A tad darker, but acceptable in the summer time)
Mac Studio Fix Fluid NC30 (read that these run darker than Studio Fix and I agree)
Relvon Colorstay Fresh Beige (With the limited selection we have in Canada it's a pretty good match)
