FAQs

What kind of finish does the NARS Light Reflecting Foundation provide?

It provides a natural, luminous finish that enhances skin's clarity and leaves a healthy-looking glow.

Can I build up the coverage of this foundation?

Yes, it offers buildable medium coverage, allowing you to customize your desired look.

Is this foundation suitable for all skin types?

Due to its skincare-infused and hydrating properties, it is generally suitable for most skin types, but individuals with extremely oily skin may wish to use a mattifying primer or setting powder.

Does it contain SPF?

Info needed: Please refer to the product packaging or official NARS website for specific SPF information.

How should I choose the correct shade, especially 'Vienna L4.5'?

The best way to choose a shade is to swatch a small amount on your jawline and check it in natural daylight. Vienna L4.5 is a specific shade within the NARS range. For accurate shade matching, consult an in-store expert if possible.

Can I apply this foundation with my fingers?

Yes, you can apply it with clean fingertips, a foundation brush, or a damp beauty sponge. The method depends on your preferred finish and coverage.

Does this foundation feel heavy on the skin?

No, it features a weightless formula designed to feel comfortable and light on the skin while providing coverage and enhancing clarity.

Troubleshooting

Foundation looks cakey or settles into fine lines.

Ensure your skin is well-hydrated before application. Use less product and blend thoroughly. Try applying with a damp beauty sponge for a sheerer, more natural finish.

Foundation doesn't last all day.

Start with a good primer appropriate for your skin type. After applying foundation, lightly set with a translucent powder, especially in areas prone to oiliness, or use a setting spray.

Doesn't blur imperfections sufficiently.

This foundation offers medium coverage; for more prominent imperfections, use a targeted concealer before or after foundation application. Ensure you're blending outwards to achieve the blurring effect.

Shade appears off or oxidizes.

Always test the shade on your jawline in natural light before purchasing. If oxidation (darkening) occurs, try applying a thin layer of primer, or consider a slightly lighter shade if possible.

Foundation feels heavy despite being 'weightless'.

You might be using too much product. Start with a very small amount and build up coverage as needed. Less is often more with weightless formulas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting Started

Before applying the NARS Light Reflecting Foundation, ensure your skin is properly prepped. Cleanse, tone, and moisturize as part of your regular skincare routine. A good moisturizer will help the foundation glide on smoothly and enhance its hydrating benefits. For an even longer-lasting finish or to address specific skin concerns, consider using a primer before application.

Compatibility

This foundation is designed to be compatible with most skincare routines and makeup products. It layers well over serums, moisturizers, and primers. For a cohesive look, it pairs beautifully with other NARS complexion products, such as their Radiant Creamy Concealer and Light Reflecting Setting Powder, which can further enhance its blurring and luminous properties.

Product Care & Storage

To maintain the integrity and effectiveness of your foundation:

  • Storage: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Hygiene: Avoid direct contact of the pump with your skin to prevent bacterial contamination. Dispense product onto a clean surface or applicator.
  • Expiration: Check the PAO (Period After Opening) symbol, usually a small open jar icon with a number and 'M' (e.g., `12M`), which indicates how many months the product is good for after opening.
