Just a thought. Posting foundation conversion data in a single thread will be useful for ladies who need a reference point to start the foundation mixing process or are still trying to find the recipe for their perfect foundation match. (It would be even better if the data can be collated into a chart). Ladies who have recently switched over to SN can share their recipes with reference to what they have used before. E.g. a NC20 in MAC/Olive Fair in EDM would be xx scoops of ivory : xx scoops of yy color.

I switched over from SN in Mar 09. Previously, I used EDM (Matte), 1 Golden Fair: 1 Fawn in EDM. My foundation recipe - 9 Ivory (Heavy): 1 Buttery Gold + 1/4 yellow booster.

Chaye,
This is a great idea. Hopefully, we will get lots of feedback and I will compile it onto a chart for us. I don't always know what people end up using with their recipe. We kind of have something similar in our recipes thread that has been going for a while. It will end up being a good starting point for those who are trying us out.

Anyway, I was EDM Fairly Light (Beige), but Olive Fair was better in undertone but too pale. Really, I never found a great match there without mixing and I had handful of base colors that were close. Most of the year I am some version of 1Olive:14 Ivory (plus or minus 2 depending on my tan).
