    This foundation in Deauville is my holy grail. I rarely wear any type of foundation, but when I do, I use only this! The color match is perfect...for people who find this to be too greasy, you...

    Perfect color match (Monte Blance for my PPP skin), wrong formula for me. The MA thought that as I was only normal to oily the balanced formula would be best. Unfortunatly, it wore a little too...

    I love Nars foundations- not to heavy but just enough coverage. But why don't they have a colour between Fiji and Deauville?

    I love NARS color cosmetics, but this foundation sucks the big sponge. Mineral oil is the second ingredient, very disappointing for a $35 foundation. Unpleasant smell (I returned one bottle and...

    It is a great foundation ,it won't turn dull after 6-8 hours and have a great staying power. But I think it is too oily to use it in winter. Only suitable in Canada winter.

    I am not a big fan of NARS foundations. First, it just sat on top of my skin. It didn't blend well either. For the price I was expecting a lot more. I love their lipglosses, brushes,...

    Pros: does look soft and flawless from a distance. Cons: not natural looking up close and an open top bottle. Saw the pictures of Reese Witherspoon wearing this and had extremely high hopes. I...

    I have this in Santa Fe and love it. My skin is on the sensitive side (I break out using neutrogena) but I have not had any problems. The coverage is great and is more natural than my previous...

    I got a huge sample of this from Sephora in the color "deauville". It is an awesome match for my LLL skin. It goes on a little bit sticky for my liking and is a little bit hard to blend, but the...

    Let me say first of all that I have oily skin. The NARS MA said that despite the fact that my face is oily, this foundation would be better for me than the oil-free. So I was like OK, whatever,...

    There is nothing really to fault about this foundation, other then the fact that its colour selection does not go very light. The consistency and blending is nice, it covers enough that you don't...

    I tried a sample of this, and found the color range to be great. The reason I didn't purchase this is that the coverage wasn't full enough for me. This would be great for someone with no blemishes...
