- Q
Is it best to use both the matte complete and the radiant concealer together? Do you order the same color in both? Should I use a brush or my fingertips?
- Asked by Cassandra
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello, thank you for your interest in our Concealer formulas. The shades are the same across formulas, and we do recommend applying with the warmth of the fingertips to apply for the best finish. A brush may also be used for application if desired. Both concealers offer different benefits - Soft Matte Concealer offers a full coverage, and a soft-focus matte finish, and Radiant Creamy Concealer is a hydrating formula with a radiant finish and buildable medium-to-full coverage. -Ashley, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you
- Q

- Asked by Lissie
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello, and thank you for your interest in our Soft Matte Complete Concealer. If you submit a question with a shade reference (such as a shade in a foundation or another concealer which was a good match for you), we could look up that shade and recommend something comparable. - Samantha, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you
- Q
I have always used dermablend to cover large port wine birthmark.it is no longer available. Do I use this in same manner???
- Asked by Mona
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello, and thank you for your interest in our Soft Matte Complete Concealer. The easiest way to build coverage with this formula is to apply with our Soft Matte Concealer Brush - this is a dense but fluffy brush, which seamlessly applies this product. To blend and build coverage, use a stippling motion, pressing the concealer into the skin, and softening the edges to blend into the surrounding skin. Apply more as needed. For more staying powder, we would recommend setting the concealer with our Light Reflecting Setting Powder or our Soft Matte Advanced Perfecting Powder. - Samantha, NARS ArtostWas this answer helpful to you

- Q
What brush should I use to apply and blend? And when you try to build, if it's buildable, does it take off more if you know what I'm talking about?
- Asked by Emily
- Official Answer By NARS - BEHello, thank you for your interest in our Soft Matte Concealer. Soft Matte Concealer offers a full coverage. We recommend applying with the warmth of the fingers for the best results, as it helps the product to "melt" into the skin. If the use of a brush is preferred, we recommend our #11 Soft Matte Concealer Brush: https://www.ulta.com/p/11-soft-matte-complete-concealer-brush-pimprod2038759?sku=2604191 -Ashley, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you
- Q
Im using this a spot concealer, is a primer recommended
- Asked by Shana
- Official Answer By NARS - BEThank you for your interest in our Soft Matte Complete Concealer. When using this concealer, you don’t need to use a primer underneath. It is a long last formula that blurs imperfections and provides soft matte finish. For best application, I recommend following these steps 1. Use fingertips to warm product and press into the skin. 2. Use a stippling application to areas with more texture such as acne scars, pores, and wrinkles. 3. Apply with #12 Cream Blending Brush to layer and create a smooth finish Hope this helps! – Weronika, NARS ArtistWas this answer helpful to you

You can find it in our Radiant Creamy Concealer formula, or Soft Matte Complete Concealer for spot concealing and a blurring effect.

My New Favorite Pot Concealer
Concealers are difficult to get right, especially matte ones, since the finish can tend to exaggerate problems with the texture and look cakey when set with powder. But NARS definitely delivers with this gorgeous pot concealer. It applies smoothly and evenly with a concealer brush, melts into the ...

Works great but not on its own
It works well as a concealer BUT it does look like you're wearing concealer. It's great if you're using foundation over it but I was hoping based on other reviews that it would blend better and it just doesn't. I was looking for a concealer I could use randomly or even every day without additional s...

Comments about Soft Matte Complete Concealer
I received this quickly and enjoy the way it applies and wears throughout the day. My only issue is there's no good shade match for me. I mix this with Chantilly to get a passable match for my complexion, but everything has so much pink, orange, and peach. I wish there were more desaturated tones with a touch of green, gold, grey, and blue across all levels for people who have less vibrancy to their natural complexion. Something in the fair-light with more golden green instead of the orange-peach of nougatine would be lovely.
