Product Information

Full details

The NARS Natural Matte Longwear Foundation is for individuals seeking a comfortable, long-lasting, full-coverage foundation with a natural matte finish. Its key benefit is up to 24 hours of shine control and a blurred complexion without feeling heavy. A potential caveat is that its mattifying properties may be less suitable for very dry skin types. This foundation offers a breathable, serum-like consistency that evens skin tone, blurs imperfections and pores, and visibly improves skin texture over time with its Pore-Refining Trio technology.

FAQs

How long does the matte finish last?

The NARS Natural Matte Longwear Foundation is designed for up to 24 hours of shine control.

Can this foundation be used on dry skin?

While formulated to be non-drying, its strong mattifying properties are best suited for normal to oily or combination skin. Very dry skin types might find it beneficial to use a hydrating primer and moisturizer beforehand.

Does the Pore-Refining Trio technology really work?

Yes, clinical tests show that the Pore-Refining Trio technology visibly improves skin texture and pore appearance after just two weeks of consistent use.

Is the coverage buildable?

Yes, the foundation offers medium-to-full coverage that can be built up by applying additional thin layers without feeling heavy.

What does 'serum-like, breathable consistency' mean?

It means the foundation has a lightweight, fluid texture similar to a serum that allows the skin to breathe, preventing a heavy or suffocating feeling.

Is the foundation transfer-proof?

The foundation is designed to be resistant to transfer, as well as water and humidity.

How should I clean my foundation brushes after use?

To maintain hygiene and product performance, clean your brushes regularly with a gentle brush cleanser and warm water, then allow them to air dry completely.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears patchy or uneven

Ensure your skin is properly prepped and moisturized. Shake the foundation well before each use. Use a clean brush or sponge and blend thoroughly from the center of the face outwards. Try applying in thinner layers.

Excessive oiliness after a few hours

While designed for shine control, for very oily skin, consider using a mattifying primer underneath. Blotting papers can be used throughout the day for touch-ups.

Foundation settling into fine lines

Ensure you are using an appropriate amount of product. A hydrating primer can help create a smoother base. Avoid applying too much product directly into fine lines.

Difficulty blending the product

Try applying the foundation while your moisturizer is still slightly tacky, or use a damp makeup sponge for a seamless finish. Ensure the product is not too cold when applying.

Resistant to water, transfer, and humidity.
Achieves a natural-looking matte finish without a cakey feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Application: Shake well before use. Apply a small amount to the back of your hand and use a foundation brush, sponge, or fingertips to blend onto the skin, starting from the center of the face and working outwards. For fuller coverage, apply an additional thin layer.

Compatibility: This foundation is suitable for most skin types, particularly those prone to oiliness or a combination complexion. While formulated to be non-drying, individuals with extremely dry skin may benefit from ensuring their skin is well-moisturized before application.

Care: To maintain the product's integrity, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent the formula from drying out. Clean your application tools (brushes, sponges) regularly to ensure hygienic and even application.
