Nars Sheer Glow vs. Sheer Matte Foundation Review

Around 6 months ago, I came across the NARS Sheer Glow foundation. I was very tempted to buy it from Sephora whilst in Honolulu, Hawaii, but I didn’t and oh regrets... However I did end up buying it soon after that so all good! I have previously used Maybelline Fit, MAC Studio Fix and Pro Longwear foundation. I went through a point where I only wore MAC for a very long time. I have gone through over 10 bottles. Now MACs Studio Fix foundation retails at $49 AUS, and the Pro Longwear retails at $54 AUS. For the US, the Studio Fix retails at $27 and the Pro Longwear retails at $32 US. So, in other words pretty expensive, but I mean c’mon its MAC? And who doesn’t LOVE MAC! Anyway after I started wearing NARS for a couple of days, I started to realise I like this foundation more than MACs. Now I use the colour Santa Fe - this is a medium colour with a peachy undertone. I purchase it from Mecca Cosmetics online at the price of $59 and it is usually delivered to me the next day! The Sheer Glow foundation has a silky liquid that delivers immediate hydration, evens skin tone and leaves the skin brighter and more radiant. Used daily, your skin's texture and tone improves becoming softer, smoother and more luminous. Sheer Glow foundation provides all-day weightless and buildable coverage, with a natural radiant finish. It is also suitable for normal to dry skin.

The Sheer Glow foundation has a very liquid feel, to give it that “glow”. It spreads on the face very easily and can be applied with a sponge, brush or hands. It is wonderful to use with your hands because of its liquid texture, I personally use my hands as this ensures that the foundation is going straight from my hands to my face and it also it is easier to blend in.

The Matte has a slightly thicker, creamier feel. At first I thought it was alright, but then I started comparing it to the Glow and realised how much I like that one better. It is a lot harder to blend because of the matte formula. It also took me twice the time to apply my foundation due to its thickness making it harder to blend.

As for coverage, I feel like the Glow easily beats the Matte. I can use one layer and have my face "glowing” and after applying a bit more to certain areas it gives me that full coverage look that I am always aiming to get. It lasts all day! The Matte covers a good amount, but it doesn’t compare to the Glow. When using the Matte I had to go over spots especially my nose, several times to try and improve my coverage and it also wears off sooner than the glow.

Look and Feel: The glow feels amazing on and it makes my face feel so smooth. It also gives an airbrush look. When I go out I usually wear it over the top of a little fake tan. As for the Matte, it did not look as appealing and left my face feeling very dry. But, I mean it is a matte foundation and it is going to provide a “cakey” look, so a warning for the girls out there who don’t like cakey foundation (me) - this foundation IS NOT for you. Colour: As for the colour of the two foundations, the matte is a little lighter but contains a little more yellow than the glow.

Overall, I LOVE the Sheer Glow Foundation it is like the mother of all foundations. It provides perfect, long lasting (all day) coverage and blends in well. So easy and smooth to apply. I definitely would recommend (and already have to friends) I rate it a 10/10! As for the Matte I would give it a solid 4/10. I would say that the glow is the winner, but everyone is different it all comes down to what brand, look, colour and feel you prefer or like best. xx
