Hello
Please I need help. I always find it difficult the choose my right foundation shade. I went to MAC they gave NC45 but I kinda find it too orange for me.

Have you tried using the cover fx drops? They worked out for my older sister. Also I know at Sephora they can do a color match using some type of hand held device.

Maybe a different formula with the brand. I noticed the colors within MAC aren't always the same.
Also, note that usually the colors are too yellow/Golden and you could always use a neutral powder on top to tone down the golden hue.
Most brands tend to add a little red with the darker golden shades resulting in a golden/orange hue I'd agree with Hailey with adding a little green which is what I have to do personally since most are too peach for me
