You should get a semi-matte or matte foundation. This guide will help you find some for sale at drugstores and expensive stores.

Make sure the foundation is for oily skin, or water based. Basically look for anything that will be for oilier skin. You can try mineral makeup, although it won't change that ';shiny'; look, may just make you look dewy instead of oily. And with your foundation, little goes a long way. Get a good brush that can really distribute makeup well without needing to use a quarter sized amount on your face. I use a stippling ';skunk'; brush, worked well at blending small amounts of makeup. If you use mineral OR liquid, the more you wear, the more your skin will fight and become shiny, and will also make your face greasy and can make the makeup just sink into lines. I noticed that today when I wore too much of the mineral foundation (still getting used to it and what not) and so it basically went into my fine lines even when my skin was not oily. Blotting papers work great, you can get some at Shoppers Drug Mart or if you live in the states, at any drug store. Also, if you live near any Body Shop locations, you should try getting a skin care line for oily skin, either seaweed or tea tree for acne prone oily skin. Using products that help reduce the over production of sebum (ie oil on your face) and then using moisturizers for oily skin that have no oil in them and are designed to help mattify the skin will help a lot once your skin gets used to it (about 3 to 4 weeks to see the most results) Also, using a foundation base for oily skin will work great. I use Smashbox's primer, although at a price tag of 36 dollars Canadian for one oz, I'm not really all that sold on buying a new one when I run out, especially since my skin doesn't really stay all that matte all day as it should.


You could also get help from women who work at makeup counters, ask them for their opinion and help (and don't just ask the ones that work at specific stores, such as at Sephora they will tend to suggest their own brand as opposed to others as well).


Also, if you drink more water, get more sleep, it should help with your skin.


I know that's a lot, but all that stuff does help me, although I'm still definitely struggling with finding something to really help make my makeup NOT crease or get too greasy and easily transfer prone lol. Best of luck!
well you probably have over-active oily skin glands... basically there glands that over work themselves and make your face more oily


i used to have the same problem until i started using beeluscious cosmetics pore perfecting face primer and the luquid minerals





it did soo much for my face!! it works!


just google beeluscious
I suggest you try a mineral foundation. and before you wear your foundation rather then wearing liquid and a powder get a shine control moisturizer i have some from garnier skin naturals line. But as i was saying wear the shine control moisturizer underneath your powdered foundation. Hope this helps.
Oil blotting sheets.


Use clean %26amp; clear deep cleansing facial wipes.


They help remove dirt and oil instantly and are great for the beach when dealing with sand.





Also, I would suggest using biore facial strips for the nose.


It really helps remove oils clogging pores.


You can get all this at your local drugstore.











Hope this helped!


Thank you
They have this thing from Clean %26amp; Clear brand it's a small compact one side it has translucent powder that will help keep your skin stay perfect and un-shiny, trust me it works, and it comes with a little sponge. also, Urban Decay powder works really well!
use a moisturizer for oily skin and foundation for oily skin. plus do the oil blotting sheets. and if u continue having problems, use just the powder foundation, the liquid may be clogging up your pores
Keep blotting a loose setting powder through out the days. Blot the powder never rub and apply throughout the T-Zone.
