Dior's new Crustal Nude Natural Matte Skin Perfecter is an interesting little product that is as versatile as it is useful.
This is a transparent balm product which mattifies the skin to give a shine-free complexion.
I, for one, absolutely hate using powder as I find it leaves my skin feeling tight and uncomfortable - so was really intrigued to try this product to see how it performed at reducing shine.
You can use this in a few different ways - underneath foundation to prepare skin for makeup, over foundation to set makeup and absorb excess oil or on bare skin to refine the appearance of the complexion.
My favourite way to use it it to dab this silky product over foundation in the T-zone, which I find keeps shine at bay while setting my makeup.
It's great for those with oily/combination skin who want a nice matte finish, without having to use a setting powder.
