NARS Soft Matte Complete Foundation - Oslo

This foundation offers a soft matte finish that looks natural and controls shine without appearing flat or dry.

The Oslo shade is designed for fair skin tones with cool (pink) undertones. It's best to swatch it on your jawline in natural light to ensure it's the right match for you.

For optimal results, apply to well-prepped skin using a dense foundation brush or a damp beauty sponge. Pat and press the product into the skin, building coverage in thin layers where needed.

Yes, the NARS Soft Matte Foundation is formulated with oil-controlling properties, making it an excellent choice for combination to oily skin types. For enhanced longevity, pair it with an oil-controlling primer.

Yes, it is a full-coverage foundation. A small amount is usually sufficient to conceal imperfections and create an even skin tone, but coverage can be built up in specific areas.

While designed to be transfer-resistant, setting the foundation with a powder can further minimize transfer, especially in areas prone to contact.

Each bottle contains 45ml of NARS Soft Matte Foundation.

Ensure your skin is thoroughly moisturized and exfoliated before application. Use a hydrating primer, and try applying the foundation with a damp beauty sponge using a pressing motion rather than swiping.

Always match your foundation in natural daylight. If it looks too light or dark, consider blending it down your neck slightly or mixing with a slightly different shade. Ensure you're allowing it to fully oxidize on your skin for a few minutes after application, as some foundations can deepen slightly.

You might be using too much product. This foundation is full coverage, so start with a very small amount (e.g., a pea-sized drop) and build up only where needed. Blend thoroughly in thin layers.

Prep your skin with an oil-controlling primer. After application, set your foundation with a thin layer of translucent setting powder, focusing on oily areas like the T-zone. Blotting papers can be used for touch-ups throughout the day.

Ensure your skin is well-hydrated. A blurring or pore-filling primer can help create a smoother canvas. Apply foundation in thin layers and gently press it into the skin rather than rubbing.
