NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER FAQS
{Cult Concierge} expert Syhem is on hand to answer your frequently asked questions about NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer…
IS NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER GOOD FOR MATURE SKIN?
Yes! It uses a light-diffusing technology that blurs lines and wrinkles, so it’s great for {mature skin}. I would always recommend prepping the area with a hydrating base, especially for those with a drier skin type.
IS NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER GOOD FOR UNDER EYES?
Yes, it’s ideal for the under-eye area as it brightens and stays in place without creasing, and it is Ophthalmologist tested too.
HOW LONG DOES NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER LAST?
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer delivers long-lasting, 16-hour wear.
IS NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER NON COMEDOGENIC?
Yes! It’s also dermatologically tested and great for all skin types.
CAN YOU WEAR NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER WITHOUT FOUNDATION?
Absolutely! It can be used on its own if you just need a little bit of coverage to conceal a spot, some under-eye brightening, or to brighten the centre of the face to even things out and look put together in a flash. The formula blends seamlessly into the skin and, although it’s a great team player with other formulas, it works just as well on its own.
HOW TO APPLY NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER
After completing your morning skin care routine (applying {SPF} as your final step), your concealer can then be applied however you prefer, whether that’s with your fingers, a sponge, a concealer brush or just by using the applicator. You’ll get the most coverage by applying it directly from the applicator and gently blending using a sponge and patting motions, and a lighter, more diffused one by using a super-fluffy concealer brush.
One thing to keep in mind is that it’s best to work very fast or on one area at a time because it dries very quickly. Finish by setting it with powder using a gentle pressing motion to lock it in place.
HOW TO WEAR NARS RADIANT CREAMY CONCEALER
To achieve the highest level of coverage, use it on top of foundation to conceal spots, pigmentation and scarring, and to brighten the under-eye area. You can use two shades lighter than your concealer to highlight and two shades darker to sculpt – pick one with a warm undertone to bronze and one with a cool undertone to contour. It’s also very handy for cleaning up any booboos like a rebellious cat-eye (using an angled brush) or to create a negative space in a creative eye look!
