One of the best things about trying new products and writing about them is that you naturally start looking at a product with a few of your top expectations. Base makeup is the most important step to get a perfect finish at the end. Nobody likes a foundation that looks cakey and emphasizes the problem areas on the face. When you yourself are not feeling comfortable about yourself – no one else can. I have been using the Nars Sheer Glow Foundation for the last few days.
My Thoughts
Nars Sheer Glow Foundation is a sheer, buildable foundation with a natural-looking finish. The foundation is very lightweight and glides nicely onto the skin. It blends easily and is buildable from sheer to medium coverage. The finish looks very natural and radiant without looking or feeling heavy or cakey. It did not emphasize my dry areas of the phase neither it made my oily areas oilier. The longevity is good, stayed on well for over 8 hours for which I tested. I did not do any touch-ups during the days I tested it.
It did not emphasize the pores or my problem areas and acne. The good thing is that is available in a wide range – 40 shades for all skin types. Another thing I have noticed is that it works great when my skin is behaving well. Also, when I do not have many dark spots or problem areas to conceal. This would also be not a concern as a concealer can be used specifically for the problem areas. Overall, a very nice everyday foundation.
My expectation in regards to the finish of the foundation is always radiant and dewy. I was curious to try and see how the longevity, performance, and finish of it looks on me.
Nars Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation vs Nars Sheer Glow Foundation
Nars Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation has been on my top list for over a year and I still love it. Between Nars Sheer Glow and Nars Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation, the latter provides more coverage. Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation also looks more radiant. The longevity of both is amazing. Although Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation is not as lightweight as the Nars sheer glow foundation.
I have swatches both the foundations that match my medium skin tone with golden undertones. Sheer Glow is a little less warm than Radiant Longwear.
I also love using this sheer foundation with the Radiant Creamy Concealer and Tinted Glow Booster as a highlighter or for extra glow.
