Hello there! I recently purchased this beautiful foundation in Oslo and absolutely LOVE the formula, wear and undertone of it! However, I noticed it's just a bit too light for me. I really don't want to return it. Could I mix it with another shade to bring up the color depth about one more shade? I really want to keep the gorgeous cool undertone. If so, please recommend which shade. (I had my eye on Deauville as a possibility...)
- Asked by themarma
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello and thank you for your kind words, we are so pleased you love our foundation! You are absolutely correct, to deepen OSLO just slightly, DEAUVILLE would be a great choice -- you can also mix and match the ratio of both as your skin becomes more sun kissed in the warmer months! --Weronika, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you

Hi. I just ordered the Nars light reflecting foundation. I have combination skin. I have Dry patches but I also have an oily T-zone. Would it be ok if I moisturize first, and then use elf suntouchable whoa glow primer before adding this foundation?
- Asked by Krit
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello and thank you for your interest in NARS Cosmetics. Yes, you can absolutely use a mattifying primer to focus on keeping thew Tzone shine-free!

Help picking a shade? I am torn between yulong and mont blanc, but am open to other suggestions as well. I currently wear estee lauder double wear shade 1n1 for full coverage days, nars soft matte complete concealer in vanilla for spot concealing, and makeup forever super boost skin tint in shade 2 for lighter coverage days. Any advice on which shade to choose?

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...

Finally found my perfect foundation!
After turning 40, almost 41, my skin has gone through some changes. I'm more dry than I used to and my current products were not doing me any favors. I decided it was time to invest in good quality skin care and makeup to boost my confidence and improve my skin. After many trials i decided to try Nars. The color match js insane, the formula perfect, blends easily, lasts for 16 hours plus, doesnt dry me out or cake or stick to any dry patches that may find its way to my skin, doesn't oxidize, and is just lovely. It feels light and weightless on my skin but stilk provides great coverage. One pump does my whole face easily. I have worn this 3 times and each time I do I have received compliments on how my skin looks. It gives you a glow from within radiance that is just lovely, healthy looking, and so pretty. If you're on the fence or looking for a new foundation to try I definitely recommend this one!
Awful!
I cant believe how many positive reviews there are. This settles, disappears, and highlights imperfections. So expensive to be doing all that! No pros, only cons
I would buy this product again!
So happy whith this product! I definitely recommend this brand
Makes you GLOW
Gives you a little from within glow.
Love this but....
I have dry, sensitive and aging skin and very love this foundation. I had used this for 2 years but never had a good shade match. Nars need to improve on light medium skin tone shades. Nars have only Fiji for light medium with warm undertone and jump to medium undertone. Nars need to have more light medium shade with others undertone. This is why I give this a 4 stars due to lack of light medium skin tone with others undertone. This is such lovely foundation please improve it when you are reformulated next time Nars.
