Most Helpful Positive Review Finest Tinted Moisturizer for Natural Sheer Coverage NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer provides a little more coverage than most tinted moisturizers, but far less than standard liquid foundations. This makes it perfect for minimalist and "no-makeup" makeup days. It gives a beautiful, natural-looking finish that nevertheless provides a comfortable blendable surface for powder face products (like blush, bronzer or highlighter). The range of shades is somewhat limited in comparison to full-coverage foundations, but it melts so seamlessly into the skin that it adjusts to match the wearer's tone. (I am very fair with very cool undertones, but Finland is plenty fair enough and its neutral undertones even out my own complexion and make it more friendly to all colors without looking unnatural.)
Although the coverage is sheer, it does an excellent job evening out the complexion, minimizing the look of hyperpigmentation and blemishes. I highly recommend this product for anyone looking for this tier of coverage and skincare, and I'm thrilled that Ulta is now carrying a limited collection of NARS staples.
Most Helpful Critical Review Works great but pricey Got this for almost 2 months.
Works great as a base before applying powder because I usually skip foundation. (Love the SPF protection!) But be careful when choosing a shade! The tint is very pigmented, like foundation. I thought I could use a darker shade. Wrong. So i can only use very little product and blend a thin layer with a beauty blender or else I'll look really orange!

Not for me. Seems cakey. Maybe user error.
Perfect match! 5
Onlineshopper69 from Washington, dc
I switch foundation so often because I can't find the perfect color. It took about three tries when one of the associates picked this color for me..Sydney. Medium tone with a little peach. It's perfect! It's my skin but a little better. Leaves it with an inner glow.

Exactly what I've been searching for! 5
Shanda from Indiana
Light weight and medium coverage! Perfect for my 43 year old face! This will be my go to from now on. Most tinted moisturizers settle into the lines of my face and seem to pool there. This does not! Absolutely feel amazing!
I am in love! 5
Kristinleigh122 from Seymour, CT
I use this instead of foundation for the winter months. It doesn't amplify my drier skin and looks skin like. It covers my redness and any blemishes I may have. It leaves the perfect amount of dewiness. This is almost replacing my HG that I've been using for years. I think I can honestly say I prefer this over my Erborian CC Cream.
Wonderful 5
Linda Marie from California
This makeup is my favorite. It has great coverage but it appears natural and sheer.

Love this stuff. I've tried a few different kinds of tinted moisturizer and this one is simply the best. For a tinted moisturizer it's pretty good coverage, and makes your skin look clean. The SPF is an added bonus
Replaced my Laura Mercier Tinyed Moisturizer 4
Linda from Seattle, WA
When the Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer changed formulas, they did away with my shade (Caramel). Thankfully, this Nars tinted moisturizer matches my skin perfectly and looks like I'm wearing nothing at all, while providing SPF protection.
PERFECT 5

It blends so well and looks natural! It gives me the light coverage I want and holds up well after a full day.

Pam01 from Scarborough, Maine
When my favorite Lancome tinted moisturizer was discontinued a number of years ago, I could not find a tinted moisturizer to match it after trying numerous brands. I always had to settle. Recently, I tried NARS and it has proven to be everything I loved about my Lancome tinted moisturizer and more.
Love it 5
Pepper from USA
Have combo/sensitive skin with some rosacea and fine lines on forehead, so I can't use foundation cause they all settle into fine lines and you can literally feel the junk on your face. This goes on perfectly with a beauty blender. A little goes a long way and it covers all my redness. Been wearing this for a few months and has never caused breakouts. Wish I had found this product years ago. Hope it never gets discontinued.

I'm extremely pale. And although this product is amazing and makes my skin look good, they simply just don't offer a product light enough for me so it'll never be 100%. So disappointing.
Annapurna discontinued 1
Sad and disappointed from Syd, Australia
Hi, it's hard to find a tinted moisturiser for my skin tone because it's golden olive in a darker tone. Annapurna was perfect for it and now they have replaced this with new tones. I've been purchasing this product for years. Since i could wear makeup. The new colours don't even compare to Annapurna. It makes me look washed out or it's too dark. There's nothing in between. For people with skin tones like mine why couldn't they leave the colours that works!!! It's so disappointing because i went to top up on my product but it was gone, we were not informed of this new range coming in. I have tried replacements but nothing compares to consistency and type of coverage. Bring back Annapurna!!
Looks great, but causes breakouts 3
Rae from USA
I really want to love this product. I had some trouble initially with finding a good shade as almost all the lighter tones are warm, and don't work well for neutral to cool undertones. I found a reasonable match eventually, and I absolutely love the way it looks on my skin. It looks like my skin but healthier and fresher. The problem is it causes me to break out horribly every time I use it. I've never had this issue with any foundations by Nars or others previously, but I'm disappointed I'm unable to use this, especially for the price.

I've tried them all over the years and I always come back to this one. Finland is perfect for my warm, fair skin. It BRIGHTENS. I have mild acne, pigmentation and acne scaring and this manages to always give a tiny bit of coverage but makes the rest of my skin look so healthy that I don't notice the imperfections as much. I really love it. Also, it's worth noting that the sunscreen is a physical blocker and reliable for short times in the sun, as long as enough is applied.
LOVE!!! 5
LG from Southeast
I absolutely love this NARS tinted moisturizer! This takes the place of my foundation, it's so much better. It's lighter, but covers just as good and doesn't leave my skin oily!
Too dark, near perfect 4
Mel from US
I love the wear and coverage of this. I have very fair skin with yellow undertones and unfortunately Finland is still much too dark, I have to mix it with a white mixer to make it match my skin tone. Wish they would expand the shade range and add more lighter shades, because I would buy this forever if I could wear it straight out of the tube.
So goood 5
Britt from Boston, MA
I love this stuff, feels great on the skin and provides a good amount of coverage for a tinted moisturizer. Lasted my workday really well
Buy it! 5
Carly from Maryland
I'm not a big foundation girl so I wanted something more light to medium coverage that wasn't super matte or shiny. A worker at ulta recommended this and color matched me and I love it! The spf is an added bonus.
A classic 5
Natasha from USA
This was the first tinted moisturizer I ever tried, and it remains one of my favorites. The coverage is obviously not heavy, so it's good for days when I want to cover up a few blemishes and don't have a lot of acne. It's not long-lasting, especially when it's hot, but that comes with the territory of tinted moisturizers. I believe the instructions suggest reapplying every couple of hours if you're going to be out in the sun. If you want some subtle coverage, this is a great option.
