If it helps any, I've always used the Blot in Light and yet the Medium works just fine. I wasn't going to pass up on the awesome case. I even got a compliment on it today from a coworker while freshening up in the ladies room

It happen sometimes, but infos on Specktra aren't always right. They aren't MAC MA and doesn't work for MAC, so they take the information from MAC staff or others members and sometimes they heard it in the wrong way.

I just bought an blot powder a few days ago without knowing that they came out with the exact same thing that I needed, MEDIUM. I am really pissed now. I already started using the regular powder, is it too late to exchange it for the Catherine version?

blot powder isnt really pigmented at all, it doesnt deposit any color whatsoever, at least on me. im NW20 which is one of the lightest shades in mac foundations, yet i use medium blot powder. I think they probably chose the medium shade because most people can probably pull it off fine without looking ashy.

Blot Powder does impart a little colour which is why they have 5 shades in the permenant Blot Powder. I'm NC43 and anything lighter than medium/dark would leave me looking fake. I think it's rather thoughtless of MAC to only provide Medium Blot Powder in the nice case. I'm not too bothered as i don't really want the case but it's still the principle. What happened to ''All races, all sexes, all ages?''.

hmm, youre right. I had a thought though, they also included select tints in only 2 colors (weird ones at that, wtf is NW23?, and why bother to make an LE shade of foundation?).... im guessing that the foundations and powder they released match Catherines skintone. But, obviously thats a bit silly...

CD Blot powder
Take it back. You have 30 days if purchased from a freestanding store and maybe even longer if purchased from a department store.

If you really want the Catherine compact regardless of the shade, there is a way that you can swap a different shade from another compact. I have done this and it works and so easy to do.
