i still don't get the whole NC NW thing..
my grandma wants to get me some MAC foundation, and i'm not sure what kind to get or what shade.. there's so many types!

I have combination skin, with very dry patches around the outer edges of my face and a very oily t-zone.

Also the foundation i'm using currently is Maybelline Pure Makeup in Light 1, or 'Porcelain Ivory', their lightest shade, and it is exactly exactly my skin color, like if i put it on a spot that's not a bit red or blemished it just disappears.

any recommendations as to what type and shade i should get?
thanks in advance!

both/neither? i'm not sure. they always say look at your veins to see if they seem more purple or more green but mine just look blue.
