However, I was able to find a much better match with the Sephora option. In the NARS I wear the shade Vanilla, which is just a little too pale for me – especially in the summer, but better too light than too dark. The Bright Future has about twice the available shades as the NARS counterpart, so it was a lot easier for me to find a shade that matched my undertones. I’ve been preferring the domed shape since it doesn’t carry * too* much product and is a good shape for working around my under-eye area. The other difference would be the shape of the applicator, NARS has your standard doe foot while Sephora has a “domed” applicator which reminds me of a non-angled doe foot. So while the first costs more, you also get a bunch more product. Since the tubes looked the same to me just by eyeballing it, I was really surprised to find out there was such a difference in size. round tube, the packaging is pretty similar in terms of function.

I didn’t really notice much of a difference in longevity – both were able to last for hours without flaking, drying out, smudging, or unevenly wearing off.Īt the end of the day it looked like the NARS had settled into my pores more and appeared a bit more cakey. Additionally, I kept the square swatches on the back of my hand for the day. I pulled a two face and wore one on half my face, and the second on the other half. Once it dries and sets, the finish feels pretty velvety, almost like a second skin. They both have a lightweight consistency that doesn’t feel too heavy and blends out well without harsh edges. Honestly, I couldn’t tell the difference between the formulas once I got them out of the tube. And we’re talking back to school + holiday weekend sale + return of the Pumpkin Spice Latte crowds. So I took advantage of the long weekend and stupidly braved the crowds at the mall to swatch it. I guess this has been out for a few weeks now but has just recently come up on my radar. So when a possible dupe comes along, you can bet I’ll test it out.Įnter the Sephora Bright Future Gel Serum Concealer. I simply don’t use it often enough to justify the cost. I’ll admit I’m a total fan of the product itself, but I’m not a fan of the price. The NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is one of them. We all know about those Cult Favorites, the ones that every beauty blogger seems to have in their stash.
