SUPERIOR OIL ABSORBING POWDERS: Easy-to-spread powders help absorb the appearance of excess sebum for a lasting, mattifying effect so complexion stays looking fresh. In my opinion, the new formula is a lot lighter in feel and texture and there is much more emphasis on skincare. Is it easy to apply? CACAO PEPTIDES & MILK THISTLE: Help reduce the negative effect of blue light and other environmental stressors.

I am pleased to report that I am shade Deauville, which is usually my favourite NARS shade all year round (Radiant Longwear). I should point out that I tend to only have one foundation shade as I never sunbathe, so my skin stays the same colour. OPTIMAL DIFFUSION POWDER: Maximizes light diffusion with spherical surface powders designed to absorb and refract light for an instant blurring effect that creates a smooth, second-skin appearance. Also found in Soft Matte Complete Concealer.

LIVE ON NARS

Now, because of the name, I kind of knew I was going to love the NARS Light Reflecting Foundation before I even tried it! I already really appreciate NARS’ take on skin, so I was super excited to get involved with this new launch!

I am combination skin, as I said, and I have mainly been skipping powder. If I was expecting a super long day, I give it a light powder on the t-zone. I like to avoid powder for maximum dewiness. Unique powders allow formula to blend easily and feel weightless. Complexion instantly looks smooth with a natural soft-matte finish that feels comfortable and wears for 16 hours.All in all, this is my kind of foundation, and if you love makeup with skincare, and a juicy dewy finish, I think you could love it too. Before & After Photos I have combination skin and find it really good on my skin type. I have been testing it for a while and find that I can get away without powdering which is always good news for me. It completely covers redness and has a lovely fading effect on pigmentation, making my complexion more unified. What is the finish like? Shades stay true all day with NARS’ exclusive Anti-Oxidation Complex to help prevent color shifting. This innovative blend of makeup and skincare instantly blurs imperfections, smooths the look of textured skin, and helps conceal blemishes, dark spots, and redness. Visibly improves skin’s clarity after six weeks of daily use, even after makeup is removed.* Powered by advanced skincare ingredients that help defend against environmental aggressors and blue light, it immediately strengthens skin’s barrier to help maintain its moisture. Suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. Medium, buildable coverage with a natural finish. Breathable, all-day wear. 36 shades. To confirm your perfect shade match, allow foundation to dry down on skin. Please note shades may vary slightly across formulas depending on coverage and finish.

The shade range is amazing and hopefully everyone will find a match as it uses technology with micronised amino-acid coated pigments and mineral tone balancing powders that are able to mimic the skin’s tone to achieve the closest match.

Yes!! I am so excited for this new foundation from NARS!! It’s promises radiance, long wear and skincare benefits too. Here’s everything you need to know about the brand new NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation. I have before and after photos and also swatches of all 33 shades! Exciting! I also have the all important ingredients lists. I absolutely love the light that this brings to my skin. It has the most amazing glossiness, that isn’t greasy or oily, but beautifully dewy and juicy. It is really brightening, and I have skipped concealer on a few days when I haven’t been doing much. It’s a medium coverage foundation, and is totally buildable without ever getting cakey. I can use one pump for my whole face, and then I just add a touch more to go over where I have extra redness and pigmentation. I absolutely love it and think it could well be my new favourite. Ever since I tested it, I have been desperate to get it on my face again!! I’m thrilled to have been sent all the shades to share with you. Here are the swatches in the Light, Medium, Medium-Dark and Dark categories.

This has been a big question! For me, I find that Light Reflecting brings more of a light to your skin, almost like you’re sitting in front of sunlight, or even a ring light. Sheer Glow gives more of a traditional glow that looks a little more like makeup. If you are oily, you will probably want to set this with powder. NARS Light Reflecting Foundation vs Sheer Glow
