I was pretty underwhelmed by this foundation, which I had been eager to try. I found a decent color match in Mont Blanc (NW15) but overall the colors are very yellow, surprising for NARS since the...

I was so excited to try this foundation, but was very disappointed when I finally got it. The foundation consistency is very watery. Does not stay all day, it started sliding off my face after a...

I raced to Sephora to picked up Nars Luminous All Day foundation, after a couple of you-tube gurus raved about this foundation. I basically ran home to try it out. I tried out the foundation...

Oh dear!! First of all this foundation does not match up to the name on the packaging, "all day" "weightless" "luminous" foundation so let's start with that. This claims to be "all day" , this...

I wanted so badly to love this, but sadly I didn't. Firstly I just found it finicky for some reason and because of the tiny pumps it was difficult to blend out quickly enough before it began to...

I'll begin by saying that I truly wanted to love this foundation, as I am an avid NARS fan/supporter. The line boasts a superior range of colors and undertones, yet I still had to mix Khartoum and...

Love this for my oily skin. It really stays on a long time too. If you have dry skin I would steer clear because it almost feels drying on me and my skin is oily. But for me that's just perfect. So...

Don't get your hopes up for a super dewy formula, I'm not entirely sure where NARS got "luminous" from. They came out with this formula to replace the Sheer Matte formulation. It's definitely an...
