FAQs
Can I use NARS The Multiple - Trance on sensitive skin?
The formula is enriched with nourishing oils and Vitamin E, which are generally well-tolerated. However, as with any new cosmetic product, we recommend performing a patch test on a small area of skin before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin or known allergies.
How do I achieve a more intense color payoff?
NARS The Multiple is designed for buildable coverage. To achieve a more intense look, simply swipe the product multiple times over the desired area. The formula allows for layering without becoming heavy or cakey.
Does it work well with other makeup, like foundation?
Yes, its smooth, cream-to-powder texture is specifically designed not to disturb pre-applied base makeup such as foundation or concealer. It blends seamlessly, making it ideal for layering and on-the-go touch-ups.
Is the 'Trance' shade suitable for all skin tones?
The NARS The Multiple range, including the 'Trance' shade, is formulated to adapt and offer versatile results across a wide spectrum of skin tones. 'Trance' provides a universally flattering shimmer that can highlight and brighten many complexions effectively.
How should I clean the product stick itself?
To maintain hygiene, gently wipe the surface of the stick with a clean tissue after each use, especially if you apply it directly to your face. Avoid applying any liquids or harsh cleaners directly to the product stick.
Can this product be used without foundation or other base makeup?
Absolutely. For a natural look, you can apply NARS The Multiple - Trance directly to bare skin. It will provide a beautiful wash of color and a healthy, shimmering glow without the need for a full face of makeup.
What is the primary benefit of the cream-to-powder texture?
The transformative cream-to-powder texture offers several benefits: it ensures smooth, effortless application, sets to a soft-focus finish that helps blur imperfections, and contributes to the product's impressive long-wearing capabilities.
Will this product feel sticky on the skin?
No, `The Multiple` is known for its weightless feel. The cream-to-powder transformation ensures a non-sticky, comfortable wear that blends seamlessly into the skin without a heavy or tacky sensation.
Troubleshooting
Color appears streaky or uneven during application.
Ensure your skin is adequately prepped and moisturized. Blend thoroughly with clean fingertips, a makeup sponge, or a dense brush using patting or gentle circular motions. For best results, apply in thin layers and build up the intensity.
Product doesn't last as long as expected.
To maximize wear, apply to clean, prepped skin. For extended longevity, especially on oily skin, consider setting the applied areas with a light, translucent setting powder. Avoid excessive rubbing of the face after application.
The stick feels too firm or difficult to glide.
Ensure the product has been stored at room temperature. If it's cold, warm it slightly by rolling it between your palms or holding it against your skin for a few seconds. The enriching oils should allow for a smooth glide once it reaches optimal temperature.

Care & Maintenance
Storage: Store `The Multiple` in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain its creamy consistency and prevent melting or drying out.
Hygiene: After use, especially if applied directly to the face, you can gently wipe the surface of the stick with a clean tissue to remove any residue and maintain hygiene. Avoid using liquids directly on the product stick.
Cap Securely: Always replace the cap securely after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to protect it from dust and debris.
