I had a few questions so I asked! Hope this helps someone...
info: Welcome to MAC Cosmetics Online. One of our Artists will be with you shortly.
info: Hello. Thank you for your interest in MAC Cosmetics. My name is Mary-Ann. How may I assist you?
Erika: hi! I'm getting married soon and need a good foundation for photography
Erika: I currently use Mineralized skin finish in NC 20 for winter and 25 for summer
Mary-Ann: Hi Erika. Congratulations!
Erika: Thank for you congrats!
Mary-Ann: Are you after a bit more coverage for your wedding?
Erika: So I'm looking at full coverage foundation but there is no NC 25.
Erika: yes-probably a bit more ocverage
Erika: ~coverage
Erika: I'm worries that NC 20 might be too late as I'm gettingmarrie dint he summer but would NC 30 be too dark?
Mary-Ann: You're correct, shade NC20 and NC30 are the only shades close to your skin tone. It is a very opaque formula.
Mary-Ann: I feel it may be a bit too dark.
Erika: I supposed I could darken NC 20 with bronzer if needed
Mary-Ann: You could, yes. Have a look at the Studio Stick Foundation as well. I use it very frequently on brides with excellent results.
Mary-Ann: Studio Stick Foundation is an easy-to-blend, creamy stick foundation that provides medium-full coverage. This non-acnegenic foundation contains products to minimize the appearance of fine lines for a flaw-free finish.
Erika: ok, that would work too.
Mary-Ann: You can always add a bit of concealer over top for extra coverage. Then, set with powder.
Erika: would you recommend sponge application with either of these, or the 187 or 190 brush?
Erika: Also (sorry for all the questions!) what concealer would you recommend?
Mary-Ann: If you are using the Mineralized skin finish currently, I feel the Full Coverage will be far too heavy for your wedding day.
Mary-Ann: Use our Select Cover-Up. This liquid concealer delivers medium-light coverage with a natural finish. This non-acnegenic formula evens skin tone and won't settle into fine lines around the eyes. Apply it under your eyes with MAC Brush #213 and anywhere else that needs cover-up with MAC Brush #252.
Erika: perfect thanks!
Erika: one more question
Mary-Ann: My pleasure. Sure!
Erika: do you think NC 25 in the studio stick would work? My satinfinish is NC 25 and so is my studiofix
Mary-Ann: I do, yes. I think it will be perfect.
Erika: fantastic! Lastly (sorry I thought my last one would be my last question) what color of select cover up would you recommend?
Mary-Ann: If you are going to use it under your eyes at all, go with shade NW20 as this will be the best to eliminate any darkness. It will also be fine for use on the rest of your face as well.
Erika: great! That's what I was thinking too-I have heard that warmer colors help to camoflage dark circles.
Erika: Thank you SOOOOOOOOO much!
Mary-Ann: You are very welcome!
