I am into the dewy foundation look lately... But I always hear people saying it's not the best for oily skin. I don't like the way matte foundations make my face look. Can anyone recommend a dewy foundation with light-medium coverage. I like when my skin looks like skin.. Help me girls.

I have oily skin and I prefer Dewey foundation, I feel like I'm fighting the oilynes less and the mate foundations tend to turn weird on my oily skin (sorry that I don't know how to put it better), for a light but buildable coverage I suggest the Dior BB cream in the traditional formula (light blue tube).  :)

@sheree I've been to the drugstore so many times & almost bought the loreal true match.. Just was confused on which shade to buy. I'll have to buy it now for sure

I have oily skin and absolutely love that dewey look.! I absolutely recommend the YSL LE TEINTE TOUCHÉ ÉCLAT ILLUMINATING FOUNDATION!! I used it on 90 degree weather and for about 8+ hrs to see how it really holds up. I used Korres pomegranate mattifying primer and set it with NARS translucent setting powder. And let me tell you it was great. I did get an oily nose which I had to use blotting papers but I mean it was a hot humid day. It has buildable coverage and it's an illuminating foundation. The finish is just beautiful!
