MY TAKE:
I am not really a foundation wearer during the day. I prefer using BB cream or any tinted moisturizer because it feels much lighter. But when Giang mentioned it on twitter (she is a great enabler and i loveee her ♥) on how nice Nars Sheer Glow is, I caved in and got it for myself. I got this sometime in June, and had been using this for day time foundation.
What I like about it?
● It has nice coverage and it hides the imperfections well
● It does makes my skin glow (refer to the pictures)
● It does makes my skin looks bright - it claims that it improves skin brightness
● It doesn't leave a white cast when taking pictures
● It's not cake-y at all. It leaves the skin looking natural
● It didn't break me out
● It's moisturizing, left my skin hydrated
What I don't like about it?
● The price. It's $42 - yeah pretty expensive
● It doesn't have a pump. Sometimes I pour out too many, and ended up wasting it as I don't like putting it back to the bottle
● Some people don't like foundations without SPF (this doesn't bother me but I just added it)
OVERALL
✿ This product has more PROS than CONS and I like it a lot. It's hard for me to find foundation that doesn't break me out as my skin is so sensitive. I also use MUFE HD foundation which I prefer to use it during night time. I will definitely purchase Nars sheer glow again :)
