NARS Cosmetics have come a long way since their inception when all they had to offer was twelve lipsticks at Barney’s in New York. Now, NARS has become one of the most coveted cosmetics brand in the beauty universe. With so many products in their portfolio, it’s hard to figure out which ones to choose, especially if you’re a makeup newbie.
Fret not, because we have picked out the top five products from NARS, especially for you. From eyeliner to blusher, we have got you covered:
Radiant Creamy Concealer (RM112)
The 411: This creamy concealer is coveted by makeup artists and lovers everywhere because if its luxurious texture and luminous finish. Its lightweight medium to high coverage also helps even out the skin.
What I love about it: So, it’s really hard for me to love a concealer ‘cos most of the time they don’t do the job or they’re too rich and end up giving me cakey under-eyes but not this one. First application gave me the impression that it was too thick because it was sort of shiny, but the Radiant Creamy Concealer does the job I want it to. What I love most about this concealer is that I don’t have to apply corrector before, which saves time! Even with its thick consistency, it doesn’t feel too heavy and to eliminate creasing, I make sure to set it with powder.
Blush (RM128)
The 411: This peach-bronze blusher enlightens the face and complexion in a natural way. Even a light application will add some natural-looking flush.
What I love about it: EVERYTHING. Much like concealers, blushers are also a hard product for me to find and love but this one from NARS won me over for sure. I love the subtle shimmer it gives and also how flawlessly natural the colour sets on my face. The product is also buildable, so if you want the blush to be more visible then you can apply more. Though for me, I like to keep it to just one or two application. It’s extremely pretty and worth your money! It also last for ages!
Larger Than Life in Via Veneto (RM98)
The 411: This reach and creamy eye liner colour will definitely take your eye makeup game to the next level. It glides on smoothly and meant to give 12-hour wear without smearing or caking of any sort.
What I love about it: I stopped using eyeliner on my waterline a long time ago because it just caused irritation to my eyes until I had the opportunity to try the Larger Than Life eyeliner by NARS. It has creamy texture so it just glides on without any difficulty and after a whole day at the office, the eyeliner managed to stay on without smudging. Although I am not a big fan of eyeliners anymore, this one product might just make me start using eyeliner again!
Audacious Lipstick in Annabella (RM101)
The 411: The Audacious Lipstick by NARS offer a whopping 40 vibrant shades to suit any skin tone and occasion. Glides on luxuriously like satin on the lip, a single-stroke coverage is enough to last for a whole day of creamy wear.
What I love about it: This line of lipstick colours can easily blow out any others thanks to its super-rich formula that keeps the lips moisturised during wear. With so many shades to choose from, it’s hard to find something that you won’t like and this is definitely one long-wear lipstick that doesn’t give me crusty lips. A lot of lipsticks promise to not dry out but they eventually do. With this one, the formula keeps the colour on your lips for a pretty long time, so you don’t have that awkward worn-off look. Long-lasting, moisturising and plenty of shades, I love the Audacious Lipstick!
Light Reflecting Loose Setting Powder (RM156)
The 411: This product is all about enhancing the look of your foundation without any trace. It also helps in prolonging makeup wear thanks to its silky powder, which comes with Photochromic Technology that helps diffuse light. Skin is visibly smoothed when using this powder too.
What I love about it: I have to admit that I am a little new when it comes to setting powder so I was a bit wary that this one might turn out to be like the others, which I have tried and disliked. That was not the case because the Light Reflecting Loose Setting Powder is so easy to use, all you got to do is shake out a very, very small amount and then just brush that amount on your face. Done! It’s that simple. Another plus side about this powder is that it’s not so dense, very light and gives your face a lovely finish!
