Okay, question:
do any of you guys have this problem:

in studio tech, i wear NW 15
in powder, i wear NC 20
& in hyperreal, i wear NC 100
what gives? am i cool or warm? LOL!

Hmm I would say you're luke warm

But I have the same problems!

Foundation-wise I'm a NC15
Concealer-wise I'm a NW20

Funnily enough three different MAC MAs tell me that in Select Foundation I could be either NC25 or NW25, depending on my preference, as in whether I like to look more pink or more yellow. I told them I just want it to look like my skin, and they said well your skin can go either way. This confused me. Don't they have one that's neutral, somewhere in between NC25 and NW25 that would be right for me? Meh, I use Laura Mercier now simply because they're not as confusing

You may very well be neither warm nor cool, but rather neutral.

I'm definitely neutral and have people tell me I am NC or NW depending on the lighting. I prefer to wear NC though because it seems to bring out the pink in my skin.

 

[Sanne]

I think you're neutral too

 

[hall234]

strange

I always thought I would wear the NW, because my cheeks are quite rosy. However, besides for that, all of my other skin has a yellow undertone, so who knows? I like the NC a lot b/c it disguises my cheeks a bit... how strange, tho.

haha
