As a pro-artist, setting powder on market BY FAR!
I literally got fired over this powder. I'm a freelance artist and spent many years working for a competing brand (the one with the ˆ in the name) — and this Nars powder was SO intensely better (not to mention half the price) than the other brands best-selling powder. Whenever I had a client in need...

Shine Bright Like a Diamond?
I absolutely love NARS! But I was disappointed with this product. I knew it was light reflective- but I was seriously a ghost in every picture! I applied on my face with a fluffy brush just so I wouldn't cake it on too heavily. When someone took a picture with the flash on, I was like Edward Cullen...

Comments about Light Reflecting™ Setting Powder - Loose
So airy & light, you don't feel it on your skin. Gives a beautiful finish. Look with a magnifier & you can see miniscule sparkles. This packaging is also SO pretty!

Comments about Light Reflecting™ Setting Powder - Loose
Great at setting light reflecting foundation, only need a little to set foundation.
Simply the Best
I tried another name brand. Bought it in a rush. Omg it had a yellow cast for a translucent powder! Nope. Thus ran to Ulta to get this. It's lightweight and doesn't yellow. It's Perfect . I will never buy another for under my eyes again!
Change the formula back!
I bought this product along with a couple other loose powders over a year to try a few different ones. Nars quickly rose to the top. Loved loved loved it.. When i ran out i was so sad as it was out of stock. I was excited and immediatly bought it when it came back in stock. Ewww, new version is unremarkable and smells like feet… its the weirdest thing. Plus it just doesnt have the same coverage properties. The only redeeming value is that it travels well with the packaging. But the smell…
I wish the old version still existed!

I absolutely loved the loose powder that NARS had years ago! It was the best powder ever! I am just realizing now that they don't have the same loose powder that they used to have. I cannot comment on how this works because I have not used it. But I am so disappointed to find that the loose powder of the past no longer exists. I suppose I'll have to give the new version a whirl to see if the texture and finish is the same. But I feel like the range of colors is so limited now. I feel like it used to have an extensive range. And the finish was amazing. My clients would look at themselves and every flaw was blurred. I'll report back after I try the current version.
