I was so intrigued by this brand new powder launch from DIOR. I have been testing it out and I know loads of you have been really keen for a review. Here’s the lowdown on DIOR Backstage Face and Body Powder-No-Powder.

Little spoiler alert here, I really really like this powder. As you will know if you read here regularly, I am not really a powder fan.

A quick note on another recent DIOR powder launch. I also really love the new Forever Cushion Powder, but this new Powder-No-Powder is even more my kind of makeup product!!

What is DIOR Backstage Face and Body Powder-No-Powder?

Well that is what we all want to know!

  • Perfecting translucent powder
  • Delivers a blurring effect & seamless luminous veil on the skin
  • Natural radiant finish & long-wear (very!) soft mattifying effect
  • Blurs imperfections and even out the complexion
  • Ultra-fine texture
  • Creates a supple and transparent mesh
  • Gel base infused with micro-pearls which boost radiance and naturally brighten the complexion
  • Multi-use: suitable as a finishing powder or bronzer
  • Available in 10 neutral shades

DIOR Backstage Face and Body Powder-No-Powder Shades

I think this is quite a good range of shades and because they are all very sheer, I think most people should find a match. There are ten neutral shades:

  • 0N – very fair skin with neutral undertones
  • 1N – fair skin with neutral undertones
  • 2N – light skin with neutral undertones
  • 3N – light-medium skin with neutral undertones
  • 4N – medium skin with neutral undertones
  • 5N – tanned skin with neutral undertones
  • 6N – deep tanned skin with neutral undertones
  • 7N – deep skin with neutral undertones
  • 8N – very deep skin with neutral undertones
  • 9N – deepest skin with neutral undertones

Much like the Armani Luminous Silk Glow Fusion Powder, which Powder-No-Powder is not hugely dissimilar to, you can pick a shade that matches your complexion, or go for a deeper one and use it as a bronzer.

I have a skin tone-matching shade to show you here (1N), but I am really interested in using it as a bronzer too because I am kind of in love. I will look into that.

Armani Luminous Silk Glow Fusion Powder vs DIOR Powder-No-Powder

In terms of the Armani vs DIOR conversation that I feel could arise, I love them both. I’d say that the DIOR is slightly less noticeable on the skin…just. They are both very more-ish. Once I start applying them, I don’t want to stop!!

My Review

DIOR say that this is a completely foolproof product and I’d say this is pretty accurate. I found that you can apply this with quite a heavy hand and it never gets cakey or looks even the slightest bit powdery. It’s quite incredible.

For someone that steers clear of ‘matte’ and is terrified of powder, this is the dream. I feel like you could touch this up all day long, and it would never look powdery. You just keep glowing in a good way. How amazing is that?

In terms of the finish on the skin the DIOR Powder-No-Powder doesn’t look matte at all in my opinion. It delivers a lovely radiance and subtle skin perfecting action, whilst allowing skin to shine through.

What Does Powder-No-Powder Do?

Rather than mattify as such, I think this does the job of reducing the look of skin when shine leans over to oiliness, if you know what I mean? It is particularly good on that area either side of the nose where things can sometime look a little sweaty.

It is also super-smoothing and and it kind of makes my skin look glassy without looking oily. It’s fab.

Also, if you want to set your eye area, but don’t want anything that will settle in fine lines, or exacerbate the look of dehydration, this is perfect again. I absolutely love this.

The only negative I can find at all, and I am stretching a bit, is that there’s a chance you could get through it fairly quickly because you can use a lot and get away with it. But I am fine with that.
