MAC NW15 foundation shade, my right colour?

I ordered mac off the internet as there is no mac counters in my country, people were telling me to get NW15 until some person who claims they're a proffesional artist said you cant tell from my photo really, so what do you all think. Was i right getting NW15?

You cant really tell from a picture as everyones computer screen has slightly different hues.





It really is better to actually test products diectly on the skin, along the jawline is best.





If you have already ordered it then I guess youre just going to have to hope for the best but it might be an idea to mail MAC direct and explain that you dont have a MAC counter in your country and ask if they could send a couple of samples. Most manufacturers are pretty accommodating.

Unfortunately the best way to tell if a colour is right is to swatch it on the jawline or at best try it all over your face first. Since you do not have a MAC nearby, it will be a bit harder.





Your pictures make it a little hard to tell but maybe answering some questions I could help you out.





Are you quite pale? If so then choosing a ';15'; shade was correct, however the NW/NC depends on what undertones your skin has. If you are more rosy/pink then NW15 was correct and it should look good. If you are more golden/olive then you should have gone for NC15.
