Foundation Snow Crisis!

    Hopefully someone here can help me out, I use MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NC30, it's the dream foundation and colour for my skin so I never use anything else. However...due to this lovely snow of ours theres absolutely no way I can make it to BTs/BT2 to get a bottle and I'm all out, so I was wondering if anyone can recommend a foundation of a similar colour and texture that could tide me over till I can get studio fix? Where I live I have access to Dior, Clarins, Clinique, Smashbox and the usual chemist brands such as Revlon, Rimmel, MaxFactor etc....if anyone could help me out I'd appreciate it loads, panic station at the mo! Thanks :)

    Copied from another thread lol.
    I like the 'Clinique Anti Blemish' and 'Clinique Superfit' foundations.

    They are pricey though, €28 euros for a 30ml bottle. Then again, it depends on how long the bottle will last, esp with everyday use.

    Currently I use the 'Elizabeth Arden Flawless Finish' foundation compact and while it is good, personally, I find it heavy so going to change.

    Estee Lauder Double Wear is good too, but it just doesn't suit my skin, it brought me out in spots/blemishes.

    Clarins Truly Matte is also good, but again, it just doesn't suit my skin. It brought me out in spots/blemishes.

    Maybelline New York Dream Matte Mouse is also good, but personally, I find it a bit heavy.

    Here's a link to a thread which has links to other threads in it, hopefully they can be of help to you.

    Relvon's Colourstay Foundation is quite a good dupe for Studio Fix due to it's longevity and coverage. I'd go for that, it'll save you some money too. :)

    Dior forever is amazing, its quite nurturing for skin and has amazing staying power

    or their airflash foundation which is a spray on foundation is fab, you can adjust coverage and it only takes 2 mins to do your whole foundation!!! Get the person on counter to show you a few possibilities.
