- Asked by MaryLou
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello and thank you for your interest in our Light Reflecting Advances Skincare foundation. The NARS equivalent of your current foundation is Vienna, a light shade with neutral undertones. Hope this helps! --Weronika, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you
- Q
does this work for fine lines and dry skin? I have been having many problems with my foundations separating on my chin no matter what i use or don't use
- Asked by just me
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello, and thank you for your interest in our Light Reflecting Foundation. Light Reflecting Foundation is a medium coverage formula that is a makeup-skincare hybrid, has a natural, light-reflective finish, and instantly blurs imperfections, smooths the look of textured skin, and helps conceal blemishes, dark spots, and redness. This formula also blurs the look of fine lines, wrinkles and pores. If you feel you are seeing separation, this may be caused by skincare, skin prep or a primer which does not coordinate with the foundations you are using. We would recommend reaching out to an Artist for a more in-depth consultation. - Samantha, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you

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...

Beautiful finish
LOVE this fountain. My skin is glowing!!!
YES YES YES!
I saw a friend wearing this. Her face was glowing, and she looked 10 years younger. I bought the same shade the day I saw her wearing it.
beautiful, but…
I absolutely love this foundation but there are two dealbreakers for me: 1) it oxidizes almost immediately on me (shade oslo ends up very warm and peachy) and 2) it tends to settle into the creases of my nose and lines between my eyebrows. it's also not as buildable as I feel it's made out to be, but that's not a dealbreaker for me. I love how lightweight and dewy it is om my very dry, sensitive skin. if it stayed looking the way it does before oxidizing, this would be my holy grail
Color was good but not long wear.
I was hoping to switch from IL MAKIAGE to NARS, but this makeup does not stay put for the entire day, even with primer and setting spray. It feels runny and thin. It also settled in fine lines. I'm sure this is great coverage for younger skin, but not at all for mature women. Color was great, but I need foundation that stays consistent through the work day.
Not sure how I feel about this.
This foundation is a little watery. The coverage is good but I think I'd prefer something a little more thicker.
