Looking for a subtle blush? This is it.
Recommended!! It is super pigmented so you need a small amount on your brush, and the packaging is also very nice and small so it is easy to carry. However, it is easily breakable so do not drop it, as it is a thin package. Definitely recommended for a powder blush
If you like a glow, this is really the perfect blush, I've now bought the blush for the 2nd time. I use it daily and still get compliments on it, I also use a liquid blush from nars in the same color underneath. It gives you a very nice pink glow, I would definitely get this again.
The Armani Luminous Silk Foundation is hands down my favorite foundation. The texture is so lightweight and silky, it feels like I'm not wearing any makeup at all. It blends beautifully, giving my skin a radiant, natural looking finish. I love how it's buildable, so I can go from a light, everyday look to full coverage for special occasions without it ever looking cakey.
I even used this foundation on my wedding day for my bridal makeup, and it was absolutely perfect. It held up beautifully through all the photos, and dancing, keeping my skin looking flawless and glowing I totally recommend it.
This blush was in my De Bijenkorf advent calendar, so that's why I was able to try out this product. It is a beautiful color that fits my skin well. There is also a nice mirror in the box, super handy. The blush is very easy to apply and you don't need much product to see results. So it'll last you a long time too! The blush is still very nice at the end of the day. I'm a fan!
Absolutely love these! My fav shade is orgasm. I find the colour lasts all day, the pigment is stunning and the actual blush last for months! If you're looking for a blush to buy, I would definitely give this a go.
This pairs perfectly with their foundation
According to our eves-members, this 4.6 star
NARS Blush is a game-changer and will leave you blushing all day long! Its highly pigmented formula delivers a stunning pigmented pink shade with a touch of shimmer, and blends seamlessly with other high quality NARS products. Plus eves-members say with its compact packaging, you can take it on the go for touch-ups whenever you need. Check out this NARS essential!
I love this concealer so much! It has no pore-plogging ingredients and is therefore very suitable for acne. I used to have a L'Oréal concealer that covered my acne very well, but when I used it, new pimples appeared on the side. Very glad that's not the case with this one. The coverage is top notch. However, only use it on spots and near the nose, not under my eyes.
This nars concealer is my favorite concealer. It is very opaque and creamy and what I really like about it is that it's not too thick or anything. It feels like you're not wearing makeup, and it also stays in place for a very long time. Nars has this concealer in various colors so you can get a lighter version or you can find it in the exact color as your skin tone. It's really what you like better. Other than that, I highly recommend him.
This concealer is my absolute favourite and has completely replaced all others in my collection. It is so full coverage without looking dry or cakey. It applies flawlessly over my redness and blemishes. It has a velvet finish and does not crease under the eyes. A little goes a long way so the tube lasts for ages.
This concealer really covers perfectly! It does not give you such a concealer face but very natural, and the blend also looks very smooth and nice. I've had this concealer for over a year and it still hasn't worn out, because you really don't need much because it covers so beautifully
Love, love, love this concealer! I naturally have dark circles and that's really an insecurity on my part. This concealer covers everything beautifully, doesn't feel heavy and doesn't crease under my eyes. This product is really a holy grail and is used daily. 10/10 would recommend!
Look no further! According to 120+ honest reviews, this creamy concealer is the solution to those pesky dark circles. With its easy application and beautiful blendability, this concealer stays in place all day long, giving you flawless coverage say the eves-members. Say goodbye to tired-looking eyes and hello to late night parties!
Glowy skin with SPF? Yes, please
Very nice product, looks incredibly natural and you don't need much for a sheer finish either. It ensures smooth skin and covers redness well. Very happy with it, something I will buy more often! I apply it with my fingers. I recommend the product 100%. For the right color, I did have this matched in a store.
Have been using this product for over 15 years and absolutely nothing comes close.
The sheer coverage allows for the “no make up” look and Brucie bonus with the SPF! Also love how it doesn’t pill over other moisturisers and serums.
My go to for everyday effortless
Foundation does not usually suit right on my face. When I found this tinted moisturiser, it was perfect! It looked great on, didn’t make my face look like it does when I wear foundation. Yet it gives me the coverage I like. I would recommend this product
I searched so long tinted moisturiser which would be good . And finally I found it last year. Wow it’s really good . I have combination skin and it’s feels so good on face . Also have spf 30 what I like it so much . My makeup routine now easier because always struggled with foundation it felt like so heavy and it’s so not good to use every day heavy foundation so nars tinted moisturiser my must have in the everyday makeup routine it’s light but perfectly hidden my face pigments and some spots . Lasting all day too . Now it’s my fave and I can’t imagine my simple day makeup without it . Feels like skin .
This is one of the Best tinted moisturiser ever!!! It’s so natural looking finish and buildable! Perfect for combination skin! This gives me a very natural healthy looking skin and no make up look! It has an spf which is an added extra bonus and also works with my sensitive skin
Eves-members say this 4.4 star
NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer is loved for its natural-looking glowy finish and buildable coverage, making it perfect for combination skin. Plus it contains SPF which makes it a perfect NARS essential! Check it out and embrace a natural, radiant look.
The afterglow you wish you had
I actually bought this on a whim and I don’t regret it one bit. It looks beautiful on the lips. Normally I’m a Matte lip kind of girl but I feel like this may have transformed me. I can’t wait to wear it on holiday I’m already holding back buying more
This was the first NARS product I ever used, and I was really surprised! It has quite a pink color, which I'm not usually a fan of at all, but this color is very subtle on the lips and adapts to your own lip color. It gives a super nice glow without feeling greasy or that it's too much. I do notice that it fades quickly, so you'll have to reapply it a few times throughout the day. However, I definitely recommend it because it is a product that cares for your lips and looks elegant, really worth your money I think.
It is easy to apply. The lip balm feels incredibly soft on the lips, turns off easily and glides over your lips, as it were. The color is nice and natural and yet there is a subtle pink color (I have the color orgasm). It's a lip balm, so don't expect a mega pigmented, mattifying lipstick. It stays in place for quite a long time and moisturizes my lips well. I no longer have skin or tightness.
#nars
Wow, what a soft lip balm, it is also super nice in color, I have the color orgasm 😅 I also love it, it also stays in place for quite a long time, I will definitely buy it, I definitely recommend this lip balm, I also use it every day, if I cycle every day in all weather, it is pleasant to apply something soft to your lips.
My Thoughts
I absolutely love this balm, it makes my lips feel really soft, smooth and hydrated with a pop of colour, It's good for any time of day.
If you want minimal make-up you can wear it on it's own or underneath lipstick to keep your lips feeling their best.
They come in a variety of different shades so there's a shade for everyone.
Get one step closer to achieving a beautiful afterglow with this perfect lip balm in orgasm, say the Eves members. With 4.2 stars it’s no wonder that honest reviews rave about how the lip balm softens and hydrates the lips while giving them a natural and glossy flushed look! Time to switch and say goodbye to sticky lip products.
Smudge proof AND volumizing?
Normally, I use Maybelinne mascaras every day, as these price/quality are ok. This mascara by Nars is really great! Despite the fact that the price is a bit on the higher side, it is certainly worth the added value in price. The mascara is easy to apply. In addition, you never have lumps when applying the mascara. I think you often have this with the cheaper brands. It gives you beautiful full lashes without having to apply too much product. Finally, the packaging is very nice and is a gem to add to your makeup collection! Overall, I definitely recommend this mascara!
I was on the lion for some new makeup and had a trial done at nars. The lady doing my trial used this mascara it made my lashes longer and fuller was so amazed I had to have it. It made my lashes longer and didn't feel clumpy or heavy on my lashes.i would recommend this to anyone with short lasges.
I have used this mascara for years, I have tried others and I always come back to this! I curl my lashes first l, then do 2 coats of mascara. I find it lasts all day and doesn't smudge or end up on my eyelids. The product itself lasts quiet some time and I think it's worth the money
After many mascaras, I finally found it.. Nars.. what a nice mascara, you can easily apply it in layers, no lumps, no spider legs, lashes. In the beginning, I had to get used to the brush, once in use, you don't want anything else. Recommended!
I used so many Mascaras
but was never satisfied with it, this mascara by Nars was. Because it's super good, it doesn't give me spiderweb lashes either. So that's nice. Definitely recommend this, you should of course take your lashes apart thoroughly before using the mascara. This way, it gives a better result.
Looking for a mascara that delivers stunning results? Look no further than the
NARS Climax mascara with a rating of 4.1 stars. Eves-members say it provides intense jet-black color, making your eyes pop and your lashes look stunning. The formula keeps your lashes lifted all day without smudging or clumping according to honest reviews. Give your lashes a wow factor!
In need of makeup that is friendly for beginners?
I had been curious about this bronzer for a long time, but hesitated because I was afraid of too much 'glitter'. So I was thrilled to be able to try this one out. And I have a new favorite! No glitter head at all, but a very subtle glow, very nice. I just use it as a base bronzer on my cheeks, forehead and nose, top it off with a peachy blush and voila; natural summer glow!
Love it! The Laguna bronzer by NARS has a beautiful color, neither too orange nor too cool. 🤩
- A little bit goes a long way! You really only need a little bit.
- Longwear. I apply the bronzer in the morning and it's still in exactly the same place in the evening. (Without setting spray!)
- Perfect color for my skin. It looks like I've been on vacation.
- Also good to use as eye shadow for a bronzed look.
Yes, I'm sold! I will also definitely buy the bronzer again when it runs out. Big 5 stars for me.
Thanks for letting me test this product. I have a new favorite. 🤍
This really is the best bronzer ever. Really one of my favorite products. Gives a lot of pigment to your skin, you don't have to use much of it to create a nice bronzing effect. I prefer to apply it with a special bronzing brush for the right effect
This product is all for me. I've been using it for 4 years and I'm still super happy with the result. It gives good color and doesn't go away quickly. The pallet is also handy, because it has a mirror. I recommend it because the quality is super high.
This bronzer gives a warm result without being orange. Very easy to use and suitable for my sensitive skin. Would definitely recommend this one to obtain a bronzed and matt finish. Also very suitable for use as a contour as this bronzer mattifies well.
Struggling to find that perfect golden glow effect? This bronzing powder comes in a variety of shades to match different skin tones and provide a natural, matte finish say the eves-members. Plus our members have been in love with its bendability and pigmentation, allowing for easy application and buildable coverage.
Achieve a full face makeup look!
As you will notice with my reviews, NARS and I go hand in hand. Their products tend to always deliver on pigment and performance which is often a tough one even in luxury products when it comes to deeper skin tones. I love this foundation because as light as it is, it delivers on providing buildable coverage without looking caking and emphasising fine lines. This is one foundation that I never have to touch up and have kept repurchasing because of how good it is. I wear the shade Macao and find that I can apply it without feeling as though I look completely different.
Literally my favorite product in my makeup drawer. It's light on the skin, it covers enough, you could even build it up, it gives a natural finish and lasts a long time the way I use it! I think this is a good foundation for someone who would like a more luxurious brand but isn't quite sure how and what yet.
This is my go to foundation. Whether it is everyday makeup or going out on night out i always reach for this foundation.
The coverage is medium but you can build it up slowly. I love how natural and dewy it looks on your skin. I don’t even use a concealer because it just works as both. I wish it comes with a pump because you have to buy the pump separately but it’s worth the money compared to most other foundations out there.
This is my everyday foundation. This is medium - full coverage and is easily buildable for coverage you would like. It has an amazing glow and makes your skin look youthful and plump. Also perfect for day and evening. Lasts long, and looks very natural.
So at first I was afraid to buy it because I have sensitive skin, etc., I've already tested it: it's very covering, it hides all the blemishes on the face (stain, pimple), it's not too heavy and it lasts well all day if you put on a good day cream before putting it on and a glitter 🧡.
With a rating of 4.6 stars, this

This blush has how many stars?!
This product is unreal and no one talks about it. The colour is just gorgeous and, when used correctly, it is a beautiful and natural blush. This is the perfect touch to my natural makeup routine. The sheen in this blush is lovely too and adds a subtle highlight. You do not need to use a lot at all and it lasts for ages!!!
Nars is a great brand, products are all really great! I may have loved the orgasm powder blush but now that I've used the liquid blush (also in orgasm color), I'm a fan! So natural and long-lasting. You only need a little. I use a soft brush to spread it out. The color is so pigmented that you don't have to apply powder blush over it.
My makeup feels incomplete without this blush. It is so radiant and gives a beautiful plump glow. It melts beautifully into your foundation and brings the whole look together. It is a product I constantly find I reach for and is worth every penny. Highly recommend!
This blush is something extraordinary . Love that you can god for a subtle look , ot adding more for a evening out . Easy to blend , leaving skin soft , subtle with with a glimpse of blush and shine in the same time. I personally prefer to apply it with my fingers , this way I can control exactly the area I want to cover. The shade that I received is perfect for my light cool tone so definitely impressed with this.
In a word, great, just it's a very nice lighter pink with glitter in it.
How I use it:
Shake the product and put a pump on your hand, I dip in it and put a dot on your cheek on both sides, tap it and blend with your beauty blender - this is how it works best for me.
This blush will give you a beautiful flushed look say honest reviews! With 4.5 stars members love the subtle and intense looks you can create because of how blendable and buildable it is. Eves-members are in love with the shade orgasm, see what the hype is all about!
This makeup type is a holy grail say eves-members!
I've been trying for a while to find a foundation that isn't too thick on the skin and shows 'I wear makeup'. After a long search, I was once again influenced via social media. I went to the Bijenkorf to find the right shade match because I have very light skin but I don't always have the “lightest color”. In the end, I found the PERFECT shade match: 'Oslo'. It fits perfectly on the skin and it looks like I'm not wearing foundation.
I mainly use it when I go to work because it's light on my skin and I still have a bit of color and don't look like a zombie in the early morning 😉.
I recommend the product 100%! But I would say that you should do a shade test, purely because there is already such a big difference in terms of “lighter colors” in terms of undertones, etc.
This is a really nice foundation. The shade range is very good. It applies nicely to the skin and has a beautiful radiant finish without leaving the skin looking oily. My powder sets it in place well and it does last a decent amount of time on the skin.
I've always had trouble finding a foundation. They are often too dark or have the wrong undertone. I'm not the only one who had this problem because I've been to things like the douglas or beehive so many times in the past for advice but always without success. About 5 years ago, I finally found a color match (estee lauder double wear) but after all this time I wanted a foundation that gave a little more of a glow. So off to the beehive in good spirits where this Nars foundation first caught my eye. The girl who worked there found the perfect color all at once. I bought it immediately and have been using it ever since. I am very satisfied with the coverage and glow that this foundation provides. The color is also really perfect in daylight. I will definitely buy these again!
This foundation is great if you like medium or light coverage. This really is a foundation for every day. I alternate it with the NARS natural radiant longwear foundation, which I wear when I have a party, for example. I use the color deauville. I don't know if I would recommend this foundation if you have very oily skin.
This foundation has been with me when my skin was at its worst. I used to have hormonal acne and my breakouts looked like cystic acne. This foundation covered all of that without enhancing my texture. Even if I didn’t prep my skin properly, this foundation would still look good. It wasn’t matte but wasn’t fully glowy either and overall just made my makeup look so nice. The coverage was very buildable and any product on top went on very well. The foundation lasted throughout the day very well as well. Overall a beautiful product.
Looking for a lightweight foundation with a natural, dewy finish? This
NARS Light Reflecting Foundation with a rating of 4.7 may be it! According to honest reviews, its lightweight formula feels comfortable on the skin while providing a nice glow. Additionally, If you have dry skin, this foundation is particularly recommended as it doesn't cling to dry patches say eves-memebers. Read honest reviews about why our members think it’s a holy grail and keep coming back to it.
