    I love this foundation. It is my go-to. I wish it was cheaper and came with a pump, but I found one online to better limit how much I use daily. I love the coverage and the glow it gives my skin without it looking greasy or oily.

    The name is deceiving, this foundation is dry and finishes off powdery. You need to use the beautyblender sponge and dab quickly for a better finish. A brush leaves residue. If you have dry skin you MUST use a serum or moisturizer that doesn't flake under this foundation. It took me so many trials to get it right but it's worth it because the color Siberia is perfect for fair skin with no beige, red or yellow pigments. It's very neutral. This cost way too much for all the fuss, I PRAY they make a more moisturizing formula for dry skin but keep the color the same! The formula is not that great in coverage but buildable and lasts like all day without minor issues once it's set right. And once it's set you can play with it for touch ups because of the powdery finish. I can't imagine how much more dry the matte version is! There's no glow here if you have dry skin.

    I was matched by one of the girls that work at sephora. I feel like the colour is really dark for my skin. When you put it on in the store it looked fine, however when I wear it now I look like a pumpkin.

    This foundation is a purchase again, and again, and again product! It's my swear-by-forever product, and definitely my HG! I've been having breakouts lately that are not a girl's best friend, but this foundation hides all of that and makes you forget all about them! You get a clear, and even complexion, and definitely has staying power (medium coverage, but buildable). Although a pricey bottle (about $62 with tax), it lasts me about 8 months, maybe longer if you wear less. I've also tried a few other high-end foundations, and none of them compare to Nars.

    If you have uneven skin, or dark marks you want to hide, this is the foundation for you!

    I got color matched with a machine they had at Sephora a couple of years ago, and was given a sample.
    I have Melasma on my upper lip. This over a decent concealer such as Erase Paste and it doesn't look cakey at all and it is the most perfectly matched color for my light olive skin.
    Every where else on my face it it sheer and glows. I wish the excess didn't build up outside the mouth if the screw top jar though.
    I really like this foundation.

    This foundation is the best one Ive used so far. It is pricey but you do pay for the quality! This foundation is amazing if you have dry skin. I would recommend this to everyone.

    I bought the bars sheer glow foundation in the color Cadiz. I loooove the finish it gave me a natural luminous glow that looked very natural. I have combination skin so it didn't bring out my dry patches or make me too greasy. I didn't even need a powder with it , the only downfall is that there's no pump but other then that it's great , and a little goes a long way definitely worth the 55 bucks!

    One of the best foundations I have ever used, by far! Perfect texture, great for dry, normal or combination skin and very long-wearing.

    It provides a medium coverage that can be layered for heavier coverage if needed. That being said, this foundation can also be applied with a sponge or beauty blender-type tool for a sheer application. The finish is slightly dewy, but not overly so.

    Overall, you cannot go wrong with this foundation, unless you have very oily skin, in which case the Sheer Matte version may be better suited to you.
