I got a sample of this foundation in Deauville, light 4. It is definitely too dark and too yellow for my N/NW10-15 skin, but not so bad that it isn't wearable. I have to admit I don't wear, or...

It's quite the learning curve to make it work properly, but luckily thanks to makeupalley I did figure it out. It is long lasting with good coverage if you apply it correctly, but I still didn't...

I have to say I went to Sephora and got a sample of this foundation and I was not at all crazy about it at first. My very first impression, was "it's too runny' but then you put it on and the...

I got a sample of this product and used it for 4 days. It gives a lovely velvety yet luminous finish. It's very strange because it finished dry yet remains sheeny and alive. I have rated this 3...

I nabbed a small sample pot before committing to the fully size and I really like it. The texture is very light, and the pigmentation is very dense and I find that it does need a bit of work to...

First thing's first...do not buy this foundation if you are expecting a dewy or even "luminous" finish from it. I really don't understand why Nars labels their foundations as "glow" or "luminous"...

The only thing I liked about this is the finish and the packaging. I ordered the lightest yellow tone and it was a tad too dark and SO much too yellow. It was like a yellow crayon. I've tried...
