I'm planning on going in to get it exchanged soon, but I was wondering if someone could suggest a shade that could go well with my foundation? I'm a university student so I can't exactly splurge on multiple concealers until I find a match, and for the most part the makeup artists at MAC themselves have a tough time trying to find products that match my skin tone.Īnyone who isn’t a MAC makeup artist is going to be slightly overwhelmed when first faced with the Studio Fix Powder Plus shade range.

Perhaps it was the store lighting that made it look good, but I've been using the concealer for about a week now and I realized that it only made my skin look orange and cakey. She even tested it out on me and it looked decent, so I went ahead and bought it.

So for the past two years I've been using MAC's Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation in NC43, namely because it matches my skin tone perfectly.
