NARS The Immaculate Complexion
Okay ladies. Popular belief is that NARS has fallen short in the foundation department in the past. I am HOPING they will not let me down with the release of these two new products. Each formula comes in 20 different shades. It looks as if they are hoping to accomodate women of all hues. Of course, the website swatches are not what I'm going to rely on for a good match. Looks like I'll have to hit up my local department store to make sure it's PERFECT. After all, $42 is an INVESTMENT, right?
Sheer Matte Foundation $42 (1 Fluid oz)
NEW! A soft matte-finish foundation with sheer, buildable coverage that controls oil and shine throughout the day. Replete with skincare benefits and the NARS Complexion Brightening Formula, skin is more luminous, softer and smoother.
Used daily, Sheer Matte Foundation improves skin brightness, radiance and texture. For normal to oily skin types.
Minimizes visible discoloration
Brightens and clarifies overall skin tone
Absorbs oil and controls shine
Dermatologist tested. Non-comedogenic. Fragrance Free.
Sheer Glow Foundation $42 (1 fluid oz)
NEW! A glowing, satin-finish foundation with sheer and buildable coverage. Replete with skincare benefits and the NARS Complexion Brightening Formula, skin is hydrated, more luminous, softer and smoother. Used daily, Sheer Glow Foundation improves skin brightness, radiance and texture. For normal to dry skin types.
Minimizes visible discoloration
Brightens and clarifies overall skin tone
Improves skin luminosity and radiance
Hydrates for softer and smoother skin
