NARS Luminous Foundation: A Game-Changer for Your Skin Tone

I've been using NARS' Deauville shade of luminous foundation for a couple of years now, and it's been a staple in my makeup routine. Recently, I had the opportunity to try out two new shades - Deauville and Vienna - which are both light with different undertones. While they may look similar at first glance, I was surprised by how much of a difference the undertone made.

Deauville has a neutral undertone that complements my skin tone perfectly, while Vienna has cool undertones that gave me a slightly pinkish hue. But don't worry if you're unsure about your undertones - NARS sends out two shades for testing, so you can see which one works best for you.

One of the things I love about this foundation is its longevity. I wore it on a shopping trip this weekend and didn't need to touch up once after 4-5 hours of walking around. It's truly mask-proof - it doesn't slide or move on the skin once it's set, which is impressive considering how light and breathable the texture is.

The foundation itself has a very light feel, but it adheres beautifully to the skin, making it look like you're not even wearing makeup at all. And yet, it still manages to blur out imperfections and give your skin an instant glow-up.

But what really sets this foundation apart is its skincare benefits. It's formulated with 70% skincare ingredients, which means it promises to improve your skin over time by clarifying and defining it against environmental aggressors like blue light. And at just C$65 for 36 shades, it's a steal.

NARS has also recently expanded their Light Reflecting line with the launch of new complexion products, including a loose setting powder and pressed powder in four new shades. The foundation itself is part of this same range, which means you can build on your existing skincare routine without having to switch up your entire makeup arsenal.

Overall, I'm thoroughly impressed with NARS' Luminous Foundation - it's lightweight, long-lasting, and packed with skincare benefits that make it worth the investment. Whether you have dry, normal, or oily skin, this foundation is sure to give you a natural-looking finish that looks like skin but better.
