FAQs

Is this concealer suitable for oily skin?

Yes, the Nars Soft Matte Concealer is an oil-free formula designed to provide a soft-matte finish, which can be beneficial for those with oily skin types. It's also non-cakey and won't settle into pores.

Can I use this concealer under my eyes?

Absolutely. It's formulated to conceal dark circles and offers a light-diffusing effect that blurs and smooths. Its non-drying formula (93% felt it didn't leave skin dry or tight in a study) makes it comfortable for the delicate under-eye area.

How do I choose the right shade?

To find your perfect match, apply a small amount of the concealer along your jawline and allow it to dry down completely on your skin. The true color will become apparent once it sets.

Does this concealer offer skincare benefits?

Yes, beyond coverage, it's enriched with collagen-boosting peptides and hyaluronic acid to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and pores, contributing to plumper-looking skin over time. It also contains Vitamins A, C, and E for antioxidant protection.

What is the best way to apply this concealer?

For the highest level of coverage with the least amount of product and a natural look, François Nars, the founder, recommends dabbing it on with your finger. The warmth helps it blend seamlessly. You can also use a small brush or damp beauty sponge with a patting motion.

Will this concealer crease or settle into fine lines?

The formula is designed for all-day wear and is specifically engineered to be non-cakey and not settle into fine lines and pores. User studies showed 93% found it comfortable and non-drying.

Is this product fragranced?

Troubleshooting

Concealer looks cakey or heavy.

You might be using too much product. This is a full-coverage concealer, so a very small amount is needed. Try dabbing a tiny bit and blending it out thoroughly with your finger or a damp sponge. Ensure your skin is well-prepped and hydrated underneath.

Concealer settles into fine lines or creases.

While designed not to settle, sometimes slight creasing can occur depending on skin type or application. Try applying a very thin layer and pressing it gently into the skin. You can also lightly set the area with a translucent setting powder after application. Ensure the under-eye area is adequately moisturized before application.

Shade looks off after application.

Concealers can oxidize or dry down slightly differently. Always allow the concealer to dry completely after application, especially when testing shades. If the current shade consistently appears too dark or light, consider trying a neighboring shade variant.

Product is difficult to blend.

Ensure your skin is clean and moisturized. The warmth from your finger often helps with blending this creamy formula. If using a brush, make sure it's clean and try a dabbing motion rather than dragging. A small amount of facial mist can also help if the skin feels dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High Coverage with Natural Finish: Effectively conceals significant imperfections while blending seamlessly for a natural look.
  • Comfortable All-Day Wear: The lightweight, non-drying formula feels comfortable and doesn't settle into fine lines.
  • Skin-Benefiting Formula: Infused with peptides, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants for long-term skin health benefits.
  • Blurs Imperfections: Unique light-diffusing technology helps to visibly smooth and blur the skin's texture.
  • Oil-Free: Suitable for those who prefer oil-free cosmetic products.

Cons

  • Requires Careful Shade Matching: To achieve a truly seamless finish, finding the exact shade is critical, which might require testing.
  • Matte Finish Preference: While "soft-matte," users who prefer a dewy or luminous finish might find it less suitable for their overall aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Shade Matching: To find your perfect shade, apply a small amount of the concealer along your jawline and allow it to dry down completely. The true color will reveal itself as it sets. Shades may appear slightly different across various formulas, so always test.
  • Application Tools: While ideal for finger application, you can also use a small, dense concealer brush or a beauty sponge for blending. The key is to pat and press the product into the skin rather than rubbing.
  • Compatibility: This concealer is oil-free and designed to be compatible with various skin types, including those prone to oiliness or breakouts, due to its non-comedogenic nature. Its skin-caring ingredients (peptides, hyaluronic acid, vitamins A, C, E) make it beneficial for mature skin or those seeking added skincare benefits.
  • Storage: Store the concealer in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its texture and efficacy.
  • Care: Ensure the lid is securely closed after each use to prevent the product from drying out and to maintain its creamy consistency. Avoid introducing water or other liquids into the product.
