Nelz,
You are very welcome.

I use MAC studio finish fluid in NC40. Which motives foundation and shade would be best for me?
Sarah,
MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation in NC40 is a match for Motives Mineral Dual Foundation in Neutral Medium.
Also:
MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation in NC40 is a match for Motives Full Coverage Photo Finish Powder in Neutral Medium.
If NC40 on Mac is consistent in colors across products then our Neutral Mediums above would match. The MAC studio finish fluid in NC40 is not on my match chart though so I do not know this with certainly.
Cheers,
Jonathan
I use the mac studio fix fluid in C5, which color would work best for me in the liquid powder mineral foundation? I have a neutral skin tone but i don’t want to get a color that will make me look ashy since that usually ends up happening. Im looking for a more golden undertone rather than pink/ashy.
Thanks,
Saira
Unfortunately, I can not recommend a color match for that product. It is not on our Meet Your Match chart. I also checked our distributor forums and that particular product was not mentioned in any of the message threads.
