Shades I recommend for makeup artist - Punjab, Barcelona and Macao

These are the 3 top shades for Indian skin. You can mix to customise shades of your own.

How NARS describes its foundation :

A 16-hour foundation that stays turned on by the power of radiance with medium-to-full coverage and a natural finish. Longwear is finally lightweight. High coverage is now super natural-looking. Its breathable, fade-resistant formula is infused with Raspberry, Apple, and Watermelon Extracts to help smooth and improve the look of skin instantly and over time for full-powered radiance. It wears longer, stays stronger, and looks better with each hour. Specialized skin-matching technology ensures your truest match yet.

To confirm your perfect shade match, allow foundation to dry down on skin. Please note shades may vary slightly across formulas depending on coverage and finish.

What I love about their foundation :

Diversity - They have around 35 shades which is inclusive of all undertones

Formula - Light weight, pigmented and build-able 

As much as NARS claims it lasts for 16 hours, it doesn’t . No foundation lasts that long. But NARS does last for 7-8 hours when set with a good setting powder. Lets see if its transfer proof without a powder.

As you can see a bit of the foundation does transfer when its not set. However this isn’t a problem. Every and any foundation(as much as instagram reels tell you thats not the case) will transfer.

Some cons of the foundation are-

If you have extremely dry or oily skin you will have to use a proper moisturiser and primer to balance it out.

You won’t like this if you prefer matte foundations.

NARS is not a cruelty free brand.
