I dont have a MAC store in my town, or anywhere near me and can only buy products online.
I want to buy foundation, but I am not sure what shade or which one to buy.
I have combination skin, dry on the cheeks and oily T-Zone and I also have a few chicken pox scars so it needs to have good full coverage.
I have asked this question on the MAC website before but got no response.
Please can anyone who knows about MAC foundation advise me on a shade and which one is good for my skin?
I want to buy the foundation a.s.a.p

Answer:
Ok I would suggest Select Spf 15 in NC35.
Its water based so its good for the dry bits and not oily, so it won't effect the oily bits.
I didn't go for a foundation with full coverage because I think you should get a concealer aswell. The concealer I think is good is the Studio finish spf35. Its water resistant, you can layer it on and it covers scars well. Try NC30. With this concealor I sometime just use it on its own as it covers really effectively.
Together they cost £28. But a little def goes a long way.
MAC sell online and as far as I know at selfridges. Ypu can try ebay aswell. They're independent so you won't find them in many shops.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
hey,
i use the mac select spf 15 nc 40,
i also have dry skin and i find this very good.
u should also consider getting the Mac moisturiser, i find this brill and makes such a difference!!
you might be able to get them off ebay since there is no MAC in your town, but im not sure what colour foundation you should go for!
Answer:
I suggest going for a Fawn colour as your skin is uneven and you dont want to go to dark if you want the natural look??
make sure you blend with a brush esp round the egdes of your nose and mouth, Also if you want to add a touch of colour use a bronser, i like the Gurlaine range, start at the top of your cheek-bone and go towards the corner of your nose ( in a diagnal stoke).
i have the complete MAC set and i paid $120 for the brushes there are great for blending and making a BIG statment with the eye make up to!! .
Experiment experiment experiment!!!!
Hope this helps hunni, xx
