What It Is

A lightweight, transformative primer that creates a smooth canvas while helping control the appearance of shine for extended makeup wear.

  • What It Does

    Discover instant mattification with this lightweight makeup primer that gently glides over skin with a transformative water-gel texture and then breaks into a velvety, soft matte finish. It instantly fills in uneven, textured skin and prepares it for smooth foundation application, while maintaining makeup wear and controlling the appearance of shine. Non-acnegenic. Won't clog pores. Dermatologist tested.

  • Key Ingredients

    - Optimal Diffusion Powder, also in Soft Matte Complete Concealer and Soft Matte Complete Foundation, maximizes light diffusion for a soft-focus effect that helps blur imperfections.
    - NARS' exclusive Climate Balancing Technology is a dual-action system that adjusts to the environment to help retain hydration in dry climates and absorb excess moisture in humid ones. It helps prevent excess perspiration and sebum from breaking down makeup.
    - Anti-Oxidation Complex helps control the appearance of excess sebum to prevent shades from shifting due to oxidation.

    FREE OF...
    Alcohol, parabens, mineral oil, phthalates and fragrance

  • How To Use It

    - Smooth a small amount over the entire face prior to makeup application to even skin's surface and extend foundation's wear.
    - Can be worn alone to create a smooth complexion with a soft-matte finish.

Nars Matte Primer

It feels really light and my make up glides smoothly when I apply them to my face.

Would Buy Again

I've only used this once but it held up for hours. I haven't broken out yet or developed an irritation which I'm prone to both so fingers crossed this will be a new staple in my make up bag. I also wanted to note that the consistency felt light enough that I didn't feel like I was wearing a mask of some sort. Already love the Nars soft matte complete foundation which has amazing coverage and helps with my oily/dry combo skin so layering both of these products just makes sense.

love the design

Create a smooth base ready for makeup with the Nars Soft Matte Primer, an innovative primer that is designed to give perfect results in any climate. With a lightweight, water-gel texture, the makeup primer glides over the skin with a gentle touch. Utilising Nars’ exclusive Climate Balancing Technology, the primer has a dual-action system that adjusts to the environmental conditions, absorbing moisture in humid conditions and helping the skin retain hydration in a dry climate. Also featuring an anti-oxidation complex, the primer works to prevent sebum and sweat from breaking down the makeup or shifting the shades. Infused with optimal diffusion powder, the primer leaves the complexion with a soft-focus, velvety matte look that helps blur imperfections for a flawless finish.
