NARS Radiance Primer SPF 35 — 1.0 oz lightweight, oil-free glow primer with broad-spectrum sun protection

This primer blends skincare benefits with makeup performance: a Radiance Boosting Complex revitalizes tired-looking skin while refined pearlescent pigments add a luminous finish. Formulated to feel weightless and non-greasy, the primer helps create a smooth canvas for foundation and concealer without clogging pores. Encapsulated sunscreen beads release on contact to deliver broad-spectrum protection while the formula warms the complexion for a natural-looking radiance.

How will this primer change my makeup routine?

NARS Radiance Primer SPF 35 smooths skin texture and helps foundation apply more evenly, reducing patchiness and prolonging wear. Because it’s oil-free and non-acnegenic, it layers well under a variety of foundations without pilling or sliding.

• Creates a silky canvas for easier blending of liquid or powder foundations
• Refined pearlescence adds subtle luminosity under makeup
• Helps foundation adhere longer for extended wear
• Non-greasy feel that won’t disturb cream products

What skin benefits does the Radiance Boosting Complex provide?

The primer contains plant-derived Evodia Rutecarpa extract to promote microcirculation and improve the look of skin vitality over time. While delivering immediate brightening from pearlescent pigments, the formula also targets dullness to refresh a fatigued complexion.

• Evodia Rutecarpa supports microcirculation for a healthier-looking glow
• Instant radiance from refined pearls without heavy shimmer
• Dermatologist tested for skin compatibility
• Oil-free and non-comedogenic for everyday use

How does the SPF protection work in this primer?

SPF 35 protection is delivered through encapsulated sunscreen beads that remain inactive until massaged into the skin, helping maintain the primer’s lightweight texture. This approach provides broad-spectrum defense while keeping the primer’s finish fresh and luminous.

• Encapsulated beads release sunscreen on contact for consistent application
• Broad-spectrum protection integrated into your base step
• Maintains a non-greasy, smooth primer texture
• Reduces layering of separate heavy sunscreens under makeup

Will this primer clog pores or feel heavy on my skin?

No — the formula is oil-free and non-acnegenic, designed to avoid pore blockage and excess shine. Most users describe a lightweight, breathable sensation that won’t weigh down the skin or interfere with other face products.

• Oil-free formulation reduces the risk of midday shine
• Non-comedogenic to help prevent clogged pores
• Dermatologist tested for tolerability across skin types
• Light-reflecting pigments for glow without glitter

Who this is for: NARS Radiance Primer SPF 35 suits anyone wanting a dual-purpose base that blends skincare and makeup benefits — ideal for users who want a natural luminous finish, makeup that lasts longer, and lightweight SPF protection. It works well for normal, combination, and slightly oily skin types, and for anyone looking to refresh dull or fatigued complexions without heavy creams or obvious shimmer.
