My foundation doesn't tend to last All day, my face is oily and throughout the day the oils take over my foundation... What can I do so my foundation can stay matte and so my face won't be oily...

Moisturize, use a oil astringent, and carry blotting paper.

If you have extremely oily skin and are looking for a foundation that has medium/full coverage, check out Revlon Colorstay's whipped foundation, Estée Lauder's double wear, or MUFE Matt Velvet +. I use revlon Colorstay's whipped and the colorstay powder with a mattifying primer. I also heard if you don't drink enough water, your skin will produce more oil. In addition to that, if you are using products that dry out your skin (cleansers etc) your skin will produce more oil to make up for what is lost, so make sure to find a good moisturizer that won't leave you feeling greasy- and just have an overall good skincare routine that fits you best.

Also, blotting sheets are helpful to have so you can mattify your face without having to cake up on powder. Setting or Fixating sprays are supposed to help too I believe. A few good ones (I've heard) you can look up are Kat Von D's spray and UD's all nighter spray. Lastly, check your ingredients in makeup products to make sure that they mix correctly, for example I used to mix two foundations together to get my shade but one was oil based and one was water based, and oil and water don't mix. Especially if you have oily skin try to use oil free foundations.
