Beautiful coverage and finish!

I really do love this foundation. It has great coverage and a beautiful finish that is glowy but doesn't leave me looking oily. Lasts pretty well if an appropriate primer and setting powder is used. Really good shade range as always from Nars.

Holy Grail Product.

After hearing about this foundation for years by almost every beauty blogger, magazine, and makeup addict friend, I finally decided last year to take the plunge and fork out what I believe was around $80 for this foundation in the shade deauville.

Frankly, this may have been the best $80 I have ever spent on makeup.

I have found that this foundation makes my skin look like my skin, but with an instagram filter. It feels light, is easy to apply and feels natural. I personally only use one pump for a sheer-medium coverage, but I have heard that it can be built up for a fuller coverage. In summer/heat I have found that the foundation lasts 4-6 hours of sweaty day time, but that in winter the foundation quite often lasts me all day, with a few touch ups here and there.

Tips: I use a Real Techniques buffer brush to apply my foundation and the Rimmel Stay Matte powder after application and during the day when needing a touch up.

One of my favourite

After heard lots of reviews regarding of this nars sheer glow foundation I thought I should try this baby. I love to hear and say "it's nars sheer glow". I bought from Mecca Nz website. That customers service is freaking awesome I must say. I gave her my current foundation colour and she came with conclusion via mail and also sent me some my close foundation shade to try on my face. I use that sample for one week so I get idea " should I purchase or not?"

I did purchased and it's cost me 79$ for 30ml bottle which is pretty standard. Bottles has not pump so I don't like it but I survived without and I learned how to talk out foundation without pump....lol. It foundation is literally awesome. I bought shade called Barcelona for winter ( just for reference I Mac nc42)

Nars brand claim that it's buildable, lightweight, flawless, natural glow ( glow doesn't mean like highlighter glow), immediately hydration and skin looks brighter that claim is absulately true. Thi foundation is for Normal to dry skin so who has oily skin I don't recommend. My skin get dry in winter time so it perfect but personally I wouldn't use it in summer because my skin get oily in summer.

Two things I really don't like it first one bottle has no pump because I prefer pump. However if I minuse that point then other thing is foundation has no lasting power. Literally after 6 hour foundation get disappear. If foundation provides long lasting power that I would put this foundation on top my favourite foundation. Oh sorry I forgot to tell you that this foundation has really liquidy consistently so works good underneath eyes which is unusual. I found this foundation work really well with buffing brush instead of sponge this totally my personal preference. Hope I cover everything here. I would repurchase again because there has feather light on skin.

Beautiful foundation, not quite pale enough

I love this foundation, it makes my skin look flawless and blends wonderfully. I have acne scars so I generally prefer a very full coverage foundation, I can definitely layer this foundation up to a full coverage without looking cakey at all. The downfalls the price, although I think it's definitely worth the splurge if you can afford it, and a downfall for me is that the lightest shade Siberia is slightly too dark for me (VERY slightly, but I notice it easily) but the neautral, slightly more yellow tone matches my undertones very well.

Tips: Layering this foundation can achieve a full coverage foundation without making you look cakey.

Great with the right primer!

With Stila primer, this foundation is sooo beautiful.. I absolutely love it! But with some of my other primers, it doesn't look as good. When my skin is super dry, this foundation tends to look cakey, even though it's meant to be for dry skin! Regardless, I do really like this foundation and it is my go to high-end foundation

Holy Grail

This is my holy grail foundation, I love it so so much! It is a bit pricey, but I find it lasts really well and you don't need a lot for decent coverage. I use the shade Santa fe, Gives medium coverage and evens out my skin tone beautifully. It blends out soooo easily and never goes patchy even on days when I'm feeling lazy and neglect the primer step. I love that it has a slightly dewy finish to the skin I always feel so much younger when I wear it haha!! The glass packaging is really pretty, it doesn't come with a pump but they are only an extra $5 and I highly recommend getting one for ease of use.

I've found the one!

This foundation is my new go to!! I'm not the greatest with makeup and I am still learning the tips and tricks on how to achieve the perfect look but this is amazing. The only high end product that I will invest in now and I won't choose anything else. It's not super full coverage but you're able to build it up which is good! Gives me such a flawless look and stays on the whole working day without setting spray!

Tips: Use it sparingly! Make sure you've got a good powder to set it with!

Beautiful foundation for a youthful dewy glow

Surprisingly this foundation, even though it is designed to be ultra dewy with a glow from within look suits most skin tones, having tried it on myself personally with combination skin it doesn't become an oily mess but holds fast for the better part of the day, with the addition of a good primer and setting powder this has that perfect dewy finish. Also have used on dry skin which it is magic on, dewy without becoming cakey on those dry patches, as well as on oily skin which is normal a no no but with a good primer and settiing again this too settles lovely on the skin for a perfect dewy look, however I wouldn't recommend it for all day way for our oily peeps, as for photoshoot and short events it holds up but does break down faster on those skin types.

As always with NARS the quality is the highest, it doesn't patch or split, it glides on with the smallest amount of effort with either a stippling brush or beauty blender depending on your skin type. And comes in a huge variety of shades so you can find that perfect hue to suit you.

A little goes a long way and I find that is the norm for NARS with their foundations lasting almost 2 years without replacement being required or breaking down within the bottle, so for the price tag you are getting what you pay for.

Shade selection is amazing!!

I had heard amazing things about this foundation and at the price tag I am glad it lived up to the hype! After saving up and taking the plunge I was surprised with how much I loved the product.

Being quite pale with yellow tones I found it hard to find foundations that were light enough and not pink based! I had been through the range of drugstores and after much frustration tried looking at bigger brands.

I love NARS Sheer Glow as the shade selection is HUGE! The cater for all skin tones and shades and the match was perfect. It is a light to medium coverage but I find this fantastic for everyday wear, it is easy to apply I find it best with a damp beauty blender or your hands (as I was recommended to use by the girls at Mecca.)

The finish is dewy but I find it just gives a healthy glow, and looks quite natural. It is very easy to blend and works well with or without a primer. I do find it does tend to get a bit patchy where my glasses sit but I just take that with the glasses-wearer territory. Any tips on how to prevent/reduce that is much appreciated!

Have purchased again and love it!

Tips: Make sure to purchase the pump - makes your life so much easier!
