NC30 seems like a good match for me... But a few hours later I look orange! I don't have oily skin and I'm using Mac studio fix. I love the foundation but now I'm frustrated with oxidizing. I'm scared to go one shade lighter (nc25) because it might be too light. Ugh what should I do??

Nc40 is way too dark for me. I've already tried that. I've bought nc30 and it looks perfect in natural light. But it gets darker during the day. That's my problem :/

I have this problem with MAC studio fix too. I've tried going lighter (NC20) and I feel like the whole texture is different depending on the shade! I ended up having to switch foundation brands just to get a good match:(

After applying the foundation spilt a 2ply tissue in half and press agains your skin, don't rub, it'll absorb all the extra pigment and oil that your skin won't use up, and helps prevent it from changing color and helps it last all day!
