About NARS
NARS is a New York-based luxury cosmetics brand founded in 1994 by celebrated French make-up artist François Nars. The brand built its reputation on bold, artistic colour cosmetics, recognisable instantly from its iconic black rubberised packaging. The Aqua Glow Cushion Foundation is the brand's hydrating, dewy-finish cushion product, designed to deliver real radiance for those who don't want matte.
Shade — Alaska
Alaska is one of the fairer shades in the Aqua Glow Cushion Foundation range, suited to fair complexions with neutral undertones. As with the rest of the range, the cushion formula adapts and blends easily, giving a natural-looking finish.
