This is my holy grail foundation, I love it so so much! It is a bit pricey, but I find it lasts really well and you don't need a lot for decent coverage. I use the shade Santa fe, Gives medium coverage and evens out my skin tone beautifully. It blends out soooo easily and never goes patchy even on days when I'm feeling lazy and neglect the primer step. I love that it has a slightly dewy finish to the skin I always feel so much younger when I wear it haha!! The glass packaging is really pretty, it doesn't come with a pump but they are only an extra $5 and I highly recommend getting one for ease of use.

This foundation is my new go to!! I'm not the greatest with makeup and I am still learning the tips and tricks on how to achieve the perfect look but this is amazing. The only high end product that I will invest in now and I won't choose anything else. It's not super full coverage but you're able to build it up which is good! Gives me such a flawless look and stays on the whole working day without setting spray!
Tips: Use it sparingly! Make sure you've got a good powder to set it with!
Surprisingly this foundation, even though it is designed to be ultra dewy with a glow from within look suits most skin tones, having tried it on myself personally with combination skin it doesn't become an oily mess but holds fast for the better part of the day, with the addition of a good primer and setting powder this has that perfect dewy finish. Also have used on dry skin which it is magic on, dewy without becoming cakey on those dry patches, as well as on oily skin which is normal a no no but with a good primer and settiing again this too settles lovely on the skin for a perfect dewy look, however I wouldn't recommend it for all day way for our oily peeps, as for photoshoot and short events it holds up but does break down faster on those skin types.
As always with NARS the quality is the highest, it doesn't patch or split, it glides on with the smallest amount of effort with either a stippling brush or beauty blender depending on your skin type. And comes in a huge variety of shades so you can find that perfect hue to suit you.
A little goes a long way and I find that is the norm for NARS with their foundations lasting almost 2 years without replacement being required or breaking down within the bottle, so for the price tag you are getting what you pay for.
For years I have been searching for a foundation that works with my combination skin type and skin tone but have never had luck finding the perfect one! My friend bought it first and when I tried it on for a night out I fell in love, it lasted all night and my skin looked amazing and it didn't stick to my dry skin which was so nice! It took me a while to buy it as it is quite expensive but I couldn't go any longer using crappy foundations that made me break out. So I got it in the shade Santa Fe and I'm never looking back! I 100% recommend this product :)
This was the first every luxury foundation I bought and I am so happy I did. This gives the best coverage and Mont Blanc is the perfect colour match for my skin tone. It gives a medium to high coverage and it very buildable. Perfect for an everyday make-up look or a going out on the town look. If you are interested in branching out into more luxury foundations, then look no further - this in the one for you!
Tips: Collections Lasting Perfection concealer works very well with this foundation!
I have dry skin and nars sheer glow works perfectly for me! It always looks super natural and people are always complementing my skin when I wear it which is a lovely confidence booster, haha!
I hate the feeling of thick makeup on my skin and sheer glow always feels so light and natural while giving me the coverage I need.
Have been using it for over two years and it is definitely my favourite foundation.
Tips: I like to put a primer underneath it because I do get really dry skin. I find with a primer it lasts a lot longer and feels more natural.
This foundation is one in a million for me, I'm on my fourth bottle in the past 4-5 years! I have normal/combination skin but I suffer with with quite bad redness. With most foundations I find that they all look quire cakey on my skin due to my redness but with this one it doesn't. I only need to use a little bit to cover up my redness, it is light weight and goes on the skin smoothly. I use this with the Laura Mercier Radiance Foundation Primer as I like a dewy finish and this works great with it.
This foundation lasts on my skin for up to 5-8 hours without smudging, I used it for both of my school balls and it worked amazing!! I would recommend this foundation for anyone who wants a light-medium coverage and a natural look. Although this foundation is quite buildable.
Tips: Works best with a primer, application is done nicely with a beauty sponge.
Out of all the foundations that I have used in the past, this has to be my favourite foundation. One bottle lasts you a long period, as you only need a little every time. Normally I have dry skin (sometimes combination) and I am always looking for a dewy (but not oily looking) foundation that is lightweight to wear throughout the day. This foundation seems to tick all the boxes. It is light to medium coverage, very buildable and lasts most of the day for me. I have received many compliments on how natural it looks.
Tips: In my experience, beauty blender/sponge works best with the foundation. Make sure to set with a powder if you have oily T-zone.
This foundation is my absolute holy grail!! Having dry skin with an oily nose I find it difficult to find a foundation that doesn't irritate my skin or make it look too dewy. But Nars Sheer Glow is perfect, it creates an even skin tone and has buildable coverage (perfect for red blotchy areas). The finish looks like a second skin and gives a healthy looking glow which remains consistent throughout the day. Even though this foundation is quite pricey I feel as if it is worth every dollar due to the number of compliments I have received on my skin looking so nice when wearing this foundation. :)
Tips: If you tend to get oily in certain areas it helps to use powder with this foundation. I like to apply it to my face with a foundation brush to spread the product evenly and then pat it in with a damp makeup sponge for a perfect application.
After hearing about this foundation for years by almost every beauty blogger, magazine, and makeup addict friend, I finally decided last year to take the plunge and fork out what I believe was around $80 for this foundation in the shade deauville.
Frankly, this may have been the best $80 I have ever spent on makeup.
I have found that this foundation makes my skin look like my skin, but with an instagram filter. It feels light, is easy to apply and feels natural. I personally only use one pump for a sheer-medium coverage, but I have heard that it can be built up for a fuller coverage. In summer/heat I have found that the foundation lasts 4-6 hours of sweaty day time, but that in winter the foundation quite often lasts me all day, with a few touch ups here and there.
Tips: I use a Real Techniques buffer brush to apply my foundation and the Rimmel Stay Matte powder after application and during the day when needing a touch up.
