So I have extremely oily skin, do any of you have any recommendations for foundations, primers, cleansers, and just some plain ol' home remedies for oily skin?
Any info you have is helpful.

I have oily skin and I use Origins Checks And Balances cleanser, it doesn't dry out my skin or cause an overproduction of oils and I absolutely love it!

I prime with the NYX Photo Loving Primer, super affordable and does a great job.

For foundations I suggest Estee Lauder Double Wear and MUFE Mat Velvet+. Both are super long wearing and lightweight and they don't break down from my skin's oils. I've also been using my MAC Pro Longwear concealer as foundation lately and I've been loving that! I also really like the IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream.

I set my makeup with my MAC Blot Powder and take it with me when I go out to blot my face when I start to look oily. It definitely takes away the shine without adding any coverage or messing up my makeup.

I would stay away from DIYs as most of them contain ingredients that do more harm than good to the skin.

Use milk of manganese as a primer!! It's a god send. A little weird to get into, but when you use it you can't go back.
