Now, observing the picture above, I have a serious case of Flash Back Photo Face.

It almost looks like I have highlighter on! It's a beauty, isn't it?

What's worse is that with my oily/combination skin it just looks like I've covered my face in oil - not a great look in a restaurant! My tip here is to touch it up with a little powder throughout the day.ĭuring the day with NARS Powder Foundation on top to set it into place.Īnd by night, the skin looks quite dewy. Moriz, my skin looks and feels as smooth as a baby's bottom!Īs for longevity though, the product seems to start wearing off throughout the day to the point that by around 6pm it looks like it's completely gone. The end result is that when I'm wearing St. On normal days though I don't bother, as my skin looks pretty good with just the tinted moisturiser. I think that this product is perfect for me, given that my skin is pretty clear at the moment.Īs mentioned earlier I do have hyperpigmentation in certain areas, so if on occasion these areas require special attention I apply a tiny amount of L'Oreal's Nude Magique CC Cream in Anti Fatigue. That's ok though because this isn't really the point of a tinted moisturiser anyway. Having said that, it's definitely enough to blur out any imperfections on your skin, but it won't completely mask them like a foundation or concealer would. I'd suggest applying concealer to any areas that need covering. As it contains moisturiser within it, it can make your skin appear a bit too shiny. Saying that, you have to be a little careful as this not buildable at all. I dot it over the skin then blend it in like a mofo. At random points during the day I'll then apply NARS Powder Foundation in Barcelona to blot out any excess oilĪs my skin is relatively clear at the moment, I find I that don't need to use too much of this just now. With this sunscreen, my skin has the right amount of dewy-ness for my taste and the product blends seamlessly into my skin.

A little powder does help a bit, but to stop my skin looking like a slick of sweat I now use Murad's Oil Free Sunblock with SPF30 from Lookfantastic For me though I feel this probably won't be sufficient enough to protect my skin from UV rays as I've noticed the tinted mousturiser starts to fade away during the day.
NARS PURE RADIANT TINTED MOISTURIZER PLUS
The tinted moisturiser contains SPF30 in it which is a real plus point. When I followed their guidance though I found it to be a bit too dewy, so I tried it without the moisturiser and my skin appeared so luminous! NARS suggest applying this over a moisturiser and as my skin is oily/combination but is also dehydrated, applying a moisturiser is a must for me anyway. Also the consistency isn't quite as thick as a standard foundation, so it feels incredibly lightweight. Once I've blended it on to my skin using the ELF Studio Powder Brush, you can see just how sheer it really is and didn't leave me looking ashy at all. But because this is a tinted moisturiser it's much more sheer and is actually quite forgiving. Looking at the photo above, St Moriz looks slightly cooler than Barcelona which would be a bit problematic if it was a foundation and would leave me looking ghost-like. Just for reference I'm usually anywhere between MAC's NC37 and NC40, but in the summer I can go up to NC42. With that in mind the SA assured me, as the colour is quite sheer, it would be forgiving in the Summer when my skin darkens quite a bit. Looking at the website I presumed St Moriz would have been more suited to those who use the Stromboli shade of foundation. The Sales assistance totally understood why I had my reservations at being matched in store and was actually pretty good. I've had a few bad experiences at these counters in the past, walking away looking either like a ghost (too light) or an Oompa Loompa (too orange!). Moriz, and for once I actually came away feeling that it actually was the right colour. Last winter I was colour matched at the NARS counter in Selfridges to St. Moriz, even though Annapurna reminded me of Nepal, as Annapurna was just a little too dark for my liking even if it did have those lush peachy undertones. Moriz both looked quite close to my skin tone. I was a bit stuck for which shade to actually choose, both Annapurna and St.
