What is the lightest shade of MAC foundation?

I have VERY light skin... i tried NW15 i think... and was to dark! so whats the lighest shade of MAC???What is the lightest shade of MAC foundation?
I am a makeup Artist and I work for Mac.





Mac makes lighter shades than NW15 or NC15, but not in all of their foundations.





Studio Fix Plus Powder comes in C2, C3, and N3 ad N4, which are far lighter than NC15 or NW15:

If you live near a Mac Pro (or you can order by calling the 1-800#), try Hyperreal Pressed Powder in Extra Light





or try these other companies:


Powder always tends to be lighter than liquids, even if they have the same number or color name. So I would say you would have best luck with them. There are a lot of powder foundations that are very light and may be just right for your skin color. If you prefer liquid, opt for a sheerer liquid and get the lightest shade they offer.





Here's a list of foundations to look into:





Stila Illuminating Powder Foundation ($28):


VERY light shades, see ';10 Watts';..





Shiseido Makeup Compact Foundation or Makeup Stick ($28.50-36):


Shade B20 is extremely light.





Kevyn Aucoin The Sensual Skin Enhancer ($45):


SX02 is practically white.








Hope this helps! :)
