The NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Stromboli is designed for everyday wear, providing a consistent, radiant finish that feels light and comfortable. For best results, begin with clean, moisturized skin. You can apply the foundation using your fingertips for a warmer, more blended effect, or with a foundation brush or sponge for more precise application and smoother coverage. Its buildable nature means you can start with a small amount for a sheer tint and gradually add more to areas where you desire slightly more coverage, such as redness or minor imperfections.
Prep Your Skin: Ensure your skin is hydrated and primed for the smoothest application.
Dispense: Apply a small amount (one to two pumps) onto the back of your hand.
Apply: Dot the foundation onto the center of your face, then blend outwards using fingers, a brush, or a damp beauty sponge.
Build: For areas requiring more coverage, apply a second thin layer by gently tapping the product onto the skin.
This foundation excels in creating a 'your skin but better' look, perfect for achieving a natural, luminous glow that lasts through the day. It integrates seamlessly with the skin, avoiding a heavy or cakey appearance. Its brightening properties mean that over time, your skin's overall radiance can appear improved even when not wearing makeup.
To prepare your skin for NARS Sheer Glow Foundation, cleanse and moisturize thoroughly. If desired, apply a primer suitable for your skin type to extend wear. Shake the bottle gently before use. Dispense the desired amount of foundation and apply using clean fingertips, a foundation brush, or a damp makeup sponge, blending from the center of your face outwards.
This foundation is formulated for normal, normal-to-dry, dry, and very dry skin types. Its hydrating properties are particularly beneficial for drier complexions. It can be layered with NARS concealers, powders, and other complexion products.
Storage: Store the foundation in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain its efficacy and texture.
Hygiene: Always apply foundation with clean hands, brushes, or sponges to prevent bacterial contamination.
Shelf Life: Most liquid foundations have a shelf life of 12-18 months after opening. Look for a 'period after opening' (PAO) symbol (an open jar icon with a number followed by 'M') on the packaging.
Cleaning Applicators: Regularly clean your foundation brushes and sponges with a gentle cleanser and allow them to air dry completely to ensure hygienic application and optimal product performance.
