TL;DR — Reddit consensus
Cult dewy-finish foundation. Reddit consistently recommends for medium coverage that looks like skin.
What redditors love
+
Comparable match to drugstore Maybelline Fit Me formula
“Maybelline Fit Me vs NARS Sheer Glow (almost identical)”
u/u/Suspicious-Ground-97
What they don’t
−
Heavy and thick texture for a foundation
“I currently wear NARS sheer glow and it's a bit heavy/thick and I would like to try something lighter”
u/u/elscrappo3
−
Difficult to match undertones between face and neck
“Mont Blanc matches my face well, but I'm concerned it doesn't match my neck. I think the issue is undertone rather than depth?”
