A cleansing oil deeply reflecting François Nars's philosophy
Beauty comes from individuality,
from drawing out inner radiance
It makes even freckles stand out as charm, without concealing them. In the 1990s, when flawless beauty in skin and proportions was demanded, François Nars's makeup shocked and moved the world. "Makeup should not be a mask covering the face, but an expression of one's charm." The "natural look," now commonplace, truly began with him. François Nars, a makeup artist, founder of NARS, and photographer. His constant focus is light. "Don't hide too much, don't perfect too much. What I pursue is 'individuality,' not 'flawlessness.' Imperfection is also part of beauty. And to guide flaws toward beauty, manipulating light is crucial." Light emanating from within a person. How to control the light of the skin that brings out individuality and charm. This is one of the cornerstones of skincare and makeup as François sees it.
Discover the value of bare skin that reflects light and is full of transparency.
Empowering cleansing that even boosts confidence
"The best skin is skin that reflects light," François advocates. To achieve this, it's important to maintain beautiful bare skin. Essential elements are Purity – free from dirt and impurities. Texture – a smooth surface that allows light to glide. Moisture – to banish dullness and provide hydration that makes light bounce back. When these three elements work synergistically, the skin creates a transparency as if light is welling up from within. The Light Reflecting Cleansing Oil, born this summer, is designed to realize this philosophy. It gently removes only what is unnecessary, refines the skin's texture, and controls moisture balance. "The first step to beautiful makeup is beautiful, transparent skin." If the bare skin is smooth and clear, makeup can beautifully refract and reflect light. For everyone who loves their skin, wants to enjoy makeup freely, and wishes to be themselves. It is an empowering bottle delivered by François Nars.

TECHNOLOGY: TRIPLE ACTION CLEANSING FORCE
PORE-PURIFYING
DISSOLVING TECHNOLOGY
Employs unique micro-particle technology.
Cleanses as if purifying from deep within pores.
Utilizes proprietary Pore-Purifying Dissolving Technology. A blend of oils that easily penetrate sebum and plugs, and oils that easily penetrate makeup and dirt. A combination of carefully selected ultra-fine oils creates a powerful cleansing capability. It quickly penetrates deep into pores, comfortably washing away makeup residue that cannot be removed by face washing alone, as well as dirt like sebum that causes blackheads and plugs, old keratin, and even invisible fine dust. By gently removing dirt that causes shadows and dullness in pores and fine lines, it purifies the skin and improves makeup application.
SMART MELT
TECHNOLOGY
Thoroughly removes stubborn dirt.
Leaves skin clear and light-reflecting after rinsing.
It effortlessly removes waterproof and long-lasting makeup. Yet, it leaves the skin feeling moist and hydrated – this comfort is achieved by the unique formula that combines the skincare benefits of coconut oil (emollient ingredient) and camellia oil (emollient ingredient) with proprietary Smart Melt Technology. As a makeup artist brand, we deeply understand hard-to-remove formulas, and leverage this knowledge to precisely target specific ingredients and pigments. Through meticulous formulation balance, it achieves a texture that is as light as water yet non-greasy. It thoroughly removes dirt from deep within pores while leaving the skin moist and smooth. It provides the best feel even before makeup application, instantly replenishing moisture with each use and comfortably supporting skin condition. It leads to skin that reflects light and is full of transparency.
INSTANT EMULSIFYING
TECHNOLOGY
Quick emulsification for smooth rinsing.
Gentle, with minimal friction and burden.
Equipped with proprietary Instant Emulsifying Technology that uses a unique emulsifier with equal affinity for both oil and water. The oil, which has dissolved makeup and dirt, quickly reacts with water to emulsify. It rinses off speedily without greasiness or residue, while comfortably retaining moisture. Therefore, friction and burden on the skin are minimized. It washes while gently protecting the skin, leading to skin that radiates light from within.
NEW ROUTINE
Beyond just removing makeup,
A new routine that elevates your makeup.
Light Reflecting Cleansing Oil is formulated for use not only at night to remove makeup but also in the morning as a facial cleanser. By smoothing the skin in the morning, it enhances the finish of the subsequent makeup. Dirt such as excess sebum, dead skin cells, and dust accumulated on the skin during sleep can cause dullness and reduce makeup adherence. It quickly washes away dirt from deep within pores, smoothing the skin while thoroughly retaining moisture. It leads to skin so clear that it instantly reflects light, and this smooth, purified bare skin enhances makeup application. Then, "LESS IS MORE." With a simple method, it liberates your natural charm and individuality.
