Nars Cosmetics earns strong reviews for performance: concealers blend seamlessly, resist creasing, and wear all day, while iconic blushes and lip products deliver rich pigment and a natural, skin-like finish. Reviews also flag drawbacks—reports of a changed powder blush formula, sharpening issues with lip pencils, limited excitement from recent launches, and concerns about animal testing—making the brand impressive but not universally aligned with every buyer’s priorities.

  • Nars Powder Blush in Behave is my go-to natural flush pink eye and cheek palate for barely there makeup looks...a little mascara, concealer, highlight, and gloss and done! Great color for us neutral-cool Soft Summers. HOWEVER I have heard that the powder blush formula has changed, so new buyers beware - this is why the low recommend rating.

  • The Nars tinted moisturizer and concealer are my go-to makeup products. Completely blurs my blemishes without giving a fake appearance. So hydrating and feels so light.

  • I LOVE Nars products. I would buy so many more, but they are soooooo expensive. My favorite glossy lipstick is from them in the shade Laguna. It costs $28, which I think is a bit much. It's a great splurge item, but not a brand that I can afford to purchase from frequently.
