If your skin is quite oily, you’ll love the matte finish you’ll get with MUA Matte Perfect foundation. MUA Matte Perfect foundation is the perfect product for those who want great skin on a budget. With oily skin being one of women’s top woes it can be hard to find a product that will make your face look smooth and oil free all day.
MUA Matte foundation is a fantastic budget product which gives dewy skin and a natural fresh glow that is even all around. With its unique formula it manages to leave my skin fresh and radiant whilst still covering the oily t-zone area on my face.

The foundation is easy to apply and only takes two blobs of product to cover the whole face. As the foundation is creamy it generally sinks into the skin quite easily and reduces most blemishes and dark circles. It doesn’t however completely eliminate dark circles like some foundations can.
I generally have quite a oily T-Zone area and have to say I can’t notice it as much after applying this foundation!
It doesn’t weigh down my skin but it did feel slightly sticky after applying.
Overall a really nice product that you don’t have to pay out many pennies for!
I give it 4/5
