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...

Absolutely love!
I was skeptical at first because at 41 it's hard finding the perfect foundation but I love this!
Great skin-like foundation
This foundation is great! It provides great light-to-medium coverage with a small amount of product, which is good for how it's priced. Only downside is, oil may shine through if you're oily-combo, so prep your skin.
Impressed
I've been using Mac foundation my entire life so making the switch to Nars was not easy, but I was so impressed! This foundation is long lasting provides excellent coverage and doesn't look cakey. I have fun. They have a better selection of shades than others. I'll only be using this one from now on !
Love it!
Feels like there's barely anything on!
Hands down; 1 of the BEST!!
This is by far one of the best foundations that exist; it's in my top 3 favorites, along with Estee Lauder's Double Wear & Tarte's Face Tape. This performs exactly like a hi end product should; it goes on creamy & smooth, but is NOT runny (if you're like me & can't stand watery foundations, this is the perfect consistency; not thick & not water thin), it is radiant & ads a gorgeous glow, without the overpowering glittery lil kid look, & it stays on alllll day long, 18hrs+, w/no touch ups needed. My favorite part is that it dries down in minutes; no waiting 30-60min without it transferring all over!! You can set it, or forget it, & go about your day, free of powder/setting spray - it will stay put regardless - a Godsend. It also does not dry my skin out, nor break it out in acne (thank you Nars for OIL-FREE products!!) It even feels hydrating, so it doesn't form that tight pulling feel around the eyes as the day wears on (those over 40yo feel me, lol.) I would gladly pay full price for this level of perfection, but I do try to catch it on sale at half off twice per yr & load up then. I can say this is 99x better than Nars Natural Radiant Long Wear foundation - be careful when purchasing, as I've mixed the 2 up before. The long-wear product is not worth $5 in comparison. ;-)
