Combination SkinI started using this over the fenty pro filter matter foundation and have not switched back. It’s super easy to build but never feels heavy. It does have a scent to it but I love the smell. It will definitely last you all day and night without moving.
Dry SkinDior Backstage Face & Body is a solid foundation! It’s longwearing thanks to its sweatproof and waterproof qualities. After a 12 hr day of wear time the foundation held up through the California heat, a stuffy body-heated busy mall, a beaming evening sunset, and an energetic concert.
I’ve never worn a foundation that wore this well before! I tend to sweat easily and it was so nice to not have to worry about this foundation falling off my face or transferring everywhere. Even when I blotted myself it stayed put with my napkin looking clean and white. It truly stands the test of time and wears beautiful while doing so.
My only dock is the coverage is not as instant and it really capitalized on its description of being “custom build”. This is my thinnest and most watery foundation hands down. And a single layer did nothing for me. I had to add 2 more really get medium-full coverage. Not terrible or a serious dock because this adds to flexibility of coverage needed on a day to day basis. However, I do worry if it’ll run out faster given how much of it you may need to use.
The packaging is nice, luxury looking. You would think it’s frosted glass but it’s a frosty plastic all-squeeze body. Works well for dispensing the foundation and could be good for getting use of most of the product. Overall, I recommend for those who need a longwearing natural / radiant finish foundation.

Buildable, lightweight, brighteningPROS:
1--It is literally weightless--feels like there is nothing on your skin and looks like skin on your skin!! Beautiful!.
2--You can make it a light/medium coverage or medium/fuller coverage, easily.
3--It builds better than any other foundation I have ever used...ever.
4--It minimizes/blurs pores and does not look cakey on my combo skin, at all.
5-- It looks better as the day goes on...it just does.
CONS:
1--I list this as a con because there are people sensitive to scents...it smells like Dior..expensive....this is not a con for me, but is for many.
2--Shade selection can be a little tricky. Is the selection huge, yes, but there is so much that it can be overwhelming, especially when ordering online.
3--Packaging is not the most luxurious for Dior and the squeeze bottle can be messy.
4--I find it only applies well with a brush or your fingers--DO NOT waste your product on a BB--it just doesn't do well.
5--It's a pricier product, but definitely not the most expensive foundation I own, so I'm okay with it.
Overall, I absolutely LOVE this foundation and have worn it exclusively since I got it. I have gotten compliments on my skin every single day about how great it looks and I definitely attribute it to this foundation. My pores look smaller, and I'll even go as far to say almost non-existent. It is easy to apply and I am just in love with it. I was on the fence about ordering it on launch day, but I'm so glad I talked myself into it. I can say that I have never been a big Dior makeup fan (only the brow pencil!) because I find the shades don't compliment/match my skin, but this is a game changer for me. I feel it will do a fantastic job on mature skin and combo skin. I am not oily at all by the end the day and I lightly set it with powder (and I'm talking very lightly with a more luminous powder--new H.G. powder). Highly recommend getting a sample if you can OR just taking the risk and ordering it! Love it!
