I found this foundation so perfect when I lived in England. I used it for years and absolutely swore by it. It gives a lovely coverage, gave me flawless skin all day, and made my skin radiant. I also tried the matte version which wasn't for me - made my skin look so so dull. Anyway, since moving to NZ I have switched to Cliniques CC cream as I found the Nars too heavy for the warmer climate. It made me feel 'caked' in foundation and if you're in the sun and get warm it can go really shiny. Maybe I'll switch back though, come winter this side of the globe! Overall, a great foundation, lovely coverage but dries quickly so you need to blend it fast. This is beneficial though is you have any pimples or problem areas as you can let it thicken a minute and the coverage is thicker over redness, and the staying power of this foundation is great. Flawless skin, morning til night.

Tips: Great foundation but wear something lighter in warm weather. Apply wth a foundation brush as opposed to finger tips for better, smoother application
I recently purchased this product in the colour 'Deuville', i always wanted this foundation because every beauty blogger seemed to be raving about it and when i finally got it i had mixed feelings. Don't get me wrong i do really like it but i think this definitely not glowy on its own but matched with the right primer it could be. If you're like me and aren't looking for a matte finish then maybe investing in a good skin illuminating or light reflecting primer will give this foundation the extra glow that will leave you looking flawless.
Tips: I recommend this for people with dry to normal skin. Pair with a good primer and maybe a dewy finishing spray for a flawless finish.
If you are willing to shell out the cash for a decent foundation which is pale enough and the right tone then you can't go wrong with Nars Sheer glow - Siberia and Mont Blanc are extremely pale shades with neutral to yellow bases which are hard to find in most makeup brands - infact I can't find a match in Estee Lauder, MAC, Lancome or Clinique so that is really saying something.
Tips: This is a sheer makeup - the name says it all, don't go expecting full coverage from this one its lovely if you want a light coverage with no cakey-ness.
I try my best to stay away from high end products because it won't be good for my bank account and there are some good drug store products out there that do a better job for your skin then the higher end ones. This however! blew me away, I'm a Rimmel Foundation or Loreal True match girl so I was a little hesitant but it was new years eve so I had to go with something special. I wore my sisters Nars Sheer Glow foundation and the application was so easy, it glides on my skin effortlessly and it left a flawless finish. I didn't need to use too much of it and it gave be great coverage. It felt very light on my skin it gave me a natural finish, I might just have to treat myself this month by giving myself a 6month early birthday present hehe.
I had lusted after this foundation for so long, and finally bought it after colour testing at Mecca Cosmetica. Mecca only had Sheer Matte (no thank you) so I wasn't able to try Sheer Glow with them.
Sheer Glow isn't sheer, but I do think it's quite glowy! The shade Sibera matches me perfectly, so if you're pale and warm toned, I highly recommend trying this foundation!
This is quite pricey, so get colour tested first if you can! For me, it's totally worth the money to get a product that is the right colour for me, with great coverage and consistency!
Tips: Use a damp beauty blender to melt the product into your skin and create a flawless base!
I purchased this recently and was so happy! I finally found a foundation that a) look cakey, b) dry out my skin and c) is buildable.
This has such a lovely texture, it's so light and breathable you really do forget you're wearing it. It's a sheer coverage (obviously) but you can build if you want something a little heavier. It blends well and works very well with other products.
Tips: I've never come across this in Farmers and I certainly didn't pay $49.99 for it. Almost double that to be fair. Although if I can find the genuine product I'll ditch Kirkaldie & Stains in a hearbeat!
This foundation is my favourite! it gives a perfect sheer finish and makes your skin look amazing ! every time i where this i always get compliments about how nice, soft and even my skin looks! it gives quite a light coverage but if you do want to give more of a medium you can just apply another layer and it won't look cakey!! Such a light texture and makes your skin feel like brand new xx
Tips: i would recommend buying online as its very pricing.. about $90 in mecca cosmetics
I have this foundation in light 4 and it is aamazing! Best foundation I have ever tried, I have even bought a spare just in case something happens to my current one. I have combination skin so this gives my face a really nice dewy finish :)
I can't recommend this enough. It is the one foundation that matches my skin exactly and gives a flawless finish. It can built up for more coverage. I wouldn't say that this is a sheer foundation, it would be more a medium coverage to me. The only negative I have about this product is the price! But other than that, it is perfect.
Tips: Apply with a primer for long lasting finish.
I was first hesitant because it cost me $90 at the closest place I could find it. But it was worth it. It always gives a lovely coverage that is easily buildable, I often use it with a flat kabuki brush or a stippling brush for the best effect. I've never had any problems and have been using it for over 6 months as my main foundation.
