This stuff is the bomb dot com!!!! A bit on the pricier side of foundation but definately worth the investment. It does everything it says it does. I bought the colour Fiji and it is a great match. The foundation provides a dewy finish and I have pretty oily skin so find that no matter what liquid foundation I use I haveto apply powder-p.s it is not a sheer foundation and def provides a good coverage without looking cakey which is what I was looking for too so once again Nars I am impressed! :D

Reviews
This foundation comes in a classic looking glass bottle with the standard black Nars logo and black lid. It doesn't come with a pump but one can be purchased separately if required.
This sets reasonably fast, and I find is applied best with a brush then finished off with a beauty sponge. It gives a solid medium coverage, which I boost the coverage with in my blemish prone areas with a little powder foundation. The name Sheer Glow made me think that this would be a super dewy foundation; not the case. It feels set to touch but has a bit of luminosity to it- it really does give the impression of healthy glowy skin. I also like the way this sits on my skin throughout the day, it lasts well, and doesn't settle into my pores (although it can settle a little into fine lines). I also don't find that this gets cakey at all, it just looks very 'skin' like.
I really do think that this lives up to the hype, it is one of the nicer foundations I have tried (although I wouldn't quite give it HG status). It is one of the few foundations that I would repurchase when I run out.
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
Im on too try something new after my bottle has run out so i went for nars as i like a good coverage but not that cakey feeling so far im really enjoying it i need to change my brush to a spounge an use a better powder and i think ill hav3 a winner it is more in the pricey side but i really wanted to give it a go i
I have combination skin, oily t zone but dry ever where else. I find that this foundation is very moisturising and due to it being a sheer build able coverage it doesn’t flake on my skin.
Tips: If your in a hurry this is great to apply just to tone out the skin.
I have bought this foundation due to all the positive reviews and this is such a hyped up product, I just had to have it. I was so sure it would be amazing, as I’ve bought Nars longwear radiant foundation a week before this and it amazed me. I only chose that one first as that one came with a pump as well. I still don’t have a pump for this foundation, I know it only costs $6 at mecca, but I think for the price it should be included. Plus other negative is that after you put the pump on, the lid (obviously) won’t fit, so it’s not travel friendly at all, unless you want to risk wasting expensive foundation. The formula is very nice and it provides a great finish, not too shiny, not too matte. However it doesn’t last the whole day, not even half a day for me, even though I set it with powder as well. I have skin that is on the drier end, only my t-zone plays up most of the time, so if you have a full on oily skin I wouldn’t recommend getting this one, but then again I’ve read lots of reviews from oily skin types that it was great for them, so maybe ask for a sample first.
Tips: Pump is $6 at mecca maxima. :)
This is such a great everyday foundation, light but buildable and gives a nice finish at the end. Sante Fe is one of the best colour matches I've ever had in a foundation
Absolutely love the NARS brand, I always followed tutorials with this specific foundation being applied. I love the quality and the long lasting effect it has on the skin. The foundation itself is very smooth and can be quiet thick but honestly I do not mind thick. It is very inexpensive for the brand and high quality it puts out. I would recommend to women that love a good quality foundation that is long lasting and has an excellent finish to your complexion
It looks completely flawless and not cakey at all, the great thing about it is it comes in various shades which is so helpful for those with fairer skin and those with a darker completion. I find it works great even with people who use fake tan (as its normally extremely hard to find a foundation that matches) It does not feel heavy on the skin and with the right primer will last a long time. I have combination skin and I found it didn't go oily on me or dry up my skin. I paired it with the Laura Mercier Translucent setting powder so its a great combo! The foundation lasts all day and it can be layered which is rare with foundations these days to still look flawless and be layered. I would definitely recommend this product to women who want a flawless foundation. I will definitely be repurchasing.
Tips: Tips: Apply primer prior to using it!
This is a beautiful foundation with a medium/heavy coverage. While I love the finish it is definitely not a glowing foundation. It is more satin borderline matte so is great for all skin tones. Mont Blanc is my match and is perfect, really easily to blend.
Tips: It actually works the best with fingers and the warmth allows it blend well without drying
