Product Information

Full details

The NARS Natural Matte Longwear Foundation is for individuals seeking a comfortable, long-lasting, full-coverage matte foundation. Its key benefit is providing up to 24 hours of shine control and a natural-looking, perfected complexion that blurs imperfections. A potential caveat is that while breathable, the full-coverage nature may feel heavier for those preferring a sheer finish. This foundation offers medium-to-full coverage with a natural matte finish, featuring an innovative formula that blurs pores and improves skin texture over time. Its lightweight, serum-like consistency is buildable and resistant to creasing, transfer, water, and humidity, while micro-spheres absorb excess oil for an all-day matte look.

FAQs

How long does the NARS Natural Matte Longwear Foundation last?

What is the finish of this foundation?

Is it transfer-resistant and water-resistant?

Yes, the formula is resistant to transfer, water, and humidity, ensuring long-lasting wear.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears patchy or streaky

Ensure skin is well-moisturized and smooth. Try applying with a damp sponge or a different brush. Ensure the product is shaken well before use.

Excessive shine after a few hours

While designed for shine control, very oily skin types may benefit from a mattifying primer and a light setting powder, especially in the T-zone.

Foundation looks dry or cakey

Ensure skin is adequately hydrated before application. Use a hydrating primer and a smaller amount of foundation, building coverage only where needed. Avoid over-powdering.

Product transfers easily

Allow the foundation to set completely. Consider using a setting spray. Ensure you are not rubbing the skin excessively after application.

Shade does not match perfectly

While NARS offers a wide shade range, minor discrepancies can occur. Consider mixing shades or using a concealer to adjust problematic areas. Ensure good lighting during shade selection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Application:

Prepare Skin: Start with clean, moisturized skin. For best results, use a primer suited to your skin type.
Dispense Product: Shake the bottle well. Dispense a small amount onto the back of your hand or a palette.
Apply: Using your preferred tool (brush, sponge, or fingers), apply foundation starting from the center of your face and blend outwards.
Build Coverage: Apply additional layers as needed for desired coverage, focusing on areas with more discoloration or texture.
Set (Optional): For extended wear or very oily skin, set with a light dusting of translucent powder.

Compatibility:

This foundation is compatible with most makeup primers and setting sprays. It works well with various makeup application tools. It is designed for normal to combination skin types but can be adapted for other types with proper skincare and primer selection. It is available in multiple shades, including the Yulong (L1.5) shade, to suit different complexions.

Care:

Storage: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
Cleaning: Clean your brushes, sponges, or applicators regularly with a gentle cleanser to maintain hygiene and prevent product buildup.
Bottle: Wipe the exterior of the bottle with a dry cloth if necessary. Ensure the cap is secured after each use to preserve the formula.
