    I don’t know , the Mac looks a little to red/dark and the fenty looks a little to yellow pale 😩 the struggle in finding our perfect match is exhausting!! The fenty appears to be a little lighter in coverage but honestly I like the Mac foundation better . I think I will go purchase it . Thanks 😊

    440 in Fenty to me looked like your shade in the past video. It did not look too dark to me. Sometimes when We are not used to a match, we think the shade is too dark. 385 is a definitely no,it looks ashy on you.

    They both looked good. Have you tried Mac NC range? Supposed to be a more neutral golden undertone if NW 45 was off. Also, I am 440 in the liquid and 420 worked best on me in the powder. It looks better on the skin than swatched alone. Thanks for the review.

I struggle a lot to find my perfect shade too (especially match the right undertone to my skin tone), HOWEVER I am on the very pale close to albino rose neutral spectrum, so I cannot imagine how it must be frustrating to find your match... I must say I really like how the MAC powder looks on you! Great review btw and much love from Czech Republic

    I'm so happy to come across this review because I first bought the 430 from Fenty and after the first une I saw it was super red and I have yellow undetone. I changed it at Sephora the day after for the shade 390 so at the beginning it was looks like ok and after 1-2 hours guess what it was was mega red and oxidied 🤔🤔🤔🥴🥴🥴🥴 So I got my staple powder foundation that I've been using for years the Mac studio fix and I don't have to worry about my power foundation getting red trough out the day

    I don't know if neutral is with red undertone, I thought with a red undertone was considered a warm undertone and a neutral undertone was a olive, yellow, gold mixture. idk I have to do more research, but i'm sure red is considered a warm color.

      Red is a cool undertone. It's not about the color of the skin but rather the color underneath your skin. Red is considered a warm color but for undertone it is for cool undertone. Olive, Yellow and gold are all warm undertones
