As shown in the photo, after one pump, the product flows down when tilting the hand, but when applied to the face, it goes on smoothly and finishes with a slightly powdery feel. The coverage is not the best, but around medium-high. Using too much can make the makeup look cakey, so it's best to apply a small amount all over the face and add extra coverage only where needed. *The best thing about NARS for a makeup novice like me is that it looks the prettiest when applied with the hands.^^
ConsThe coverage alone may not be enough to fully conceal blemishes. (I have a lot of spots on my skin) A concealer is a must, and when pumping the product, an oily/watery/essence-like substance comes out along with it, making it seem very hydrating. But for my extremely dry skin, it felt a bit lacking in the base if I didn't have a very robust skincare routine. Applying it on top of a well-prepped base can sometimes make the skin look a bit uneven and messy.
TipMixing the NARS Sheer Glow Foundation with this one works perfectly. There's the burden of having to buy two products, but I highly recommend it.^

It is also a product that really feels the best tool of Nars' hands. It looks the best when applied with your hands. You can cover the entire face with a small amount, so once you buy it, it lasts much longer than other foundations or cushion products. I've been using it for over 6 months and I haven't even used half of it yet. After application, it finishes with a soft, powdery feel. And while all products tend to break down over time, this one breaks down beautifully. When combined with the oil on your face, the luminous glow is quite pretty. It's not a product that feels like a waste of money.
ConsNars seems to have better ingredients than I thought. I didn't have any breakouts or issues from using this. However, it's not recommended for dry skin types. It feels almost devoid of moisture, and the matte finish right after application can make it look cakey or emphasize dry patches. And while the overall coverage is decent, it doesn't hide textural imperfections very well.
TipLike all department store products, you can get it much cheaper at duty-free shops. I think I purchased it for the late 30,000 won range. And for the Nars foundation, applying it with your hands is the most beautiful. Using tools can actually make it apply too thickly. Since it's a product that can cover the face with a small amount, just focus on lightly spreading a small amount tapped onto your fingers across the face, and you can apply it beautifully.
