Before & After Photos
I use the shade Light Neutral which gives me a really nice and glowing effect.
Annoyingly, I forgot to take my picture before putting on the rest of my makeup, but the only other thing I have on my skin is REESON Blush in fresh rose*.

My review
While I’m really more of a glow girl, I have to say there are times when I appreciate a soft matte formula, especially in the summer. The idea of a natural matte is about a natural skin finish, not flat, and as I like to use other products to give me a glow, I find these can really work for my combination skin.
This is certainly the case with IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream Natural Matte SPF40. Applied over my Vitamin C Serum and SPF50, it still allows a natural glow to the skin, but has a gentle blurring effect on pores and texture.
A little goes a long way as the formula has satisfyingly high coverage and tackles redness and uneven tone quickly with minimal effort. i use mine REASON No. 1 Brush* to puff and blend and works great with it.
It lasts very well on my skin and feels very comfortable and light. It really is a great choice for the warmer weather, especially with the SPF40. Although having said that, I don’t need to use that much product to get the finish I want, so I make sure to use the right amount of SPF50 underneath.
Overall, I’m very happy with it.
