NARS The Multiple - Sinful

Yes, its cream-to-powder formula helps it set well on oily skin types. For extra longevity and to control shine, you might lightly set the area with a translucent powder after application.

To maintain hygiene, gently wipe the surface of the stick with a clean tissue or a makeup wipe after each use, especially if applying directly to the face.

The formula includes nourishing oils and Vitamin E. However, as with any cosmetic product, if you have sensitive skin, it's recommended to perform a patch test on a small area of skin before full application.

For a natural look, apply a very sheer layer to your cheeks, lips, and eyelids. Blend thoroughly with your fingertips to diffuse the color and create a soft, monochromatic effect.

Yes, you can. For best results, apply The Multiple first and blend it out. Once it has set, you can lightly layer powder products on top to enhance color or extend wear. Applying powders *under* The Multiple might hinder smooth blending.

A soft-focus finish refers to the product's ability to subtly blur the appearance of fine lines, pores, and minor imperfections, giving the skin a smoother, perfected look without being heavy or mask-like.

While it offers long-lasting wear, the product is not explicitly stated as waterproof. Its cream-to-powder finish provides good resistance to smudging and fading under normal conditions.

The cream-to-powder texture allows for smooth, effortless application and blending, as it glides on like a cream. It then sets to a durable, lightweight powder finish, which contributes to its long wear and soft-focus effect without feeling greasy.

For subtle color, apply a light hand and blend thoroughly. For more intensity, layer the product incrementally, blending between each application to build opacity.

Ensure your skin is adequately moisturized before application. If applying over foundation, ensure the foundation is fully set but not overly powdered. Try warming the stick slightly on the back of your hand before applying, or use a damp beauty sponge for blending.

On lips, blot after the first application and apply a second layer for extended wear. For cheeks and eyes, ensure the product is blended onto a clean, prepped surface. Setting with a very light touch of translucent powder (after application) can sometimes extend wear, but may alter the soft-focus finish.
