My first Nars
I'm in love. This is my first Nars foundation purchase and it's gorgeous on my skin. I did a shade match and it was spot on. Flawless and lightweight. Wore it for 11 hours and it didn't move and was not oily. I'm in the shade Deep 5 Zambie. It definitely makes your skin glow in a healthy way.

Great coverage
I had the opportunity to ty the NARS light reflecting foundation. The color didn't match me the way other foundation do, but it did provide great coverage without more than a dime-quarter size amount. The foundation didn't cake at all and didn't run after a spin work out. Overall, I think it's a gre...

Great for mature skin!
I used a different brand foundation for many years around the same price point. Then they up and changed their formulation and my shade no longer matched, starting a year long hunt for a new foundation. I have a very fair skin tone as well as mature skin with lots of lines and prone to dryness. After trying a few different kinds I FINALLY settled on this. NARS had actually just added the new Yulong shade, which turned out to be perfect for me! I really like this stuff. The coverage is great without feeling too heavy, it goes on smooth and feels very moisturizing rather than drying. The only drawbacks I would say is that it does tend to transfer a bit so wash your hands and protect your collared shirts, depending on how far you bring it down lol. Also the pump is a bit of a disaster. It gets clogged right away after a couple uses so be careful not to shoot foundation all over the place. It's super annoying but seems to be a common problem with most beauty brands to be honest. I love it and hope they do not randomly decide to change colors like my other brand. Highly recommend!
Best foundation POINT BLANK PERIOD!
This nars foundation is so freaking good one of the Ulta sales associates recommened it to me and i have never strayed away from it. It is the only foundation that fits my skin that is not too yellow looking and it blends into my skin like lotion but still gives the coverage that evens my skin tone. DO NOT let those tiktok girlies stray u away from this foundation it is great for my skin and ill never ever think of buying another foundation and also it doesnt boost acne!!!!!! #if it aint broke dont fixxxx itt
Not sure what all the hype is about!
This foundation slid off my face after just a few hours of wearing it! The pump is terrible. It's very hard to press, so don't plan on getting a small drop out!
Looks Natural
I use this on days I want my skin to look more natural and not matte. I used to use another brand's forever glow foundation and I prefer this one because there is no perfume smell.
10/10 foundation
Literally the best foundation i've ever had, an ulta employee helped me find my correct shade and it was like my skin in a bottle. It neutralized my VERY red cheeks and didn't feel too cakey. It didn't oxidize like many other foundations I've used in the last and didnt break up on the sides if my nose like many products do. It is a littke pricey but its most definitely worth every penny I put into it.

What primer and concealer do you recommend with the shade Patagonia
- Asked by Dee Dee

Any of our NARS Primers will work with this formula - we recommend choosing the formula which best suits your skin type and concerns.

- Q
I've been using Light Reflecting Foundation in Deauville but it is a bit on the lighter side for me, especially now that I've gotten some sun over the summer. What would be a comparable, but slightly darker/deeper shade to use instead or even to mix with Deauville?
- Asked by Brittni
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello! If Deauville is on a lighter side for you, I recommend shade Punjab (warm golden undertones). It should match your summer complexion perfectly and work as a mixer to transition back to Deauville as your tan fades. -- Weronika, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you
