Do you use a moisturizer for oily skin? you might want to look into that and I also recommend applying a translucent powder only on your forehead

You can also apply moisturizer to the temple of your face and work your way to the middle of your forehead that way you get less moisturizer on your forehead. Also you can use a setting powder in matte to help with the oiliness. I use mine from nyx I love it!!

Always moisturize and powder. I suggest moisturizing and then using a light brush of talcum powder as it is great at absorbing oils. Finish off with a nice mineral powder foundation to give your face an even matte finish.

A really, really great product for that is the Covergirl TruMagic mattifier. I have no idea what to call this, but it's like a cream or a gel like texture that you can apply to your oily spots, and it immediately reduces oil and makes skin feel smooth. It's actually amazing, I wore it line dancing once (basically, I wore it out to a club) and I didn't sweat or get shiny at all. It was absolutely fantastic.

Rimmel Stay Matte and Clear Complexion are really good powders and they last a long time. Also, when I'm feeling super oily from running errands all day, I like to just blot my face with some shine absorbing papers like these :)

Use a moisturizer without oil on your face:) also (this is just what I do and I have oily skin) after you put your moisturizer on wait a little bit for it to absorb into your skin then put your powder on I know it sounds crazy but it really works! You can put foundation and concealer ontop of you want to (I usually just use a little concealer) but if you want more details about it go to Wayne Goss on YouTube he has a video on it (that's were I it the idea lol) I hope it helps:)

Before you apply your foundation, light blot your face and lightly apply any sheer powder or any face powder you own. Then put on the rest of your make up and set it with powder. You can also buy an anti shine primer (I have the sephora brand and it's really good) and set makeup with setting makeup spray.

Well ok I prob should said this but, the moisturizer I use is amazing, it's like a lotion/gel and it's very lightweight. Olay's Fresh Effects 😍
