I have combo/oily skin and I use born this way and I love it. However, it's really better for people with dry skin because of how hydrating it is because It has coconut water and alpine rose. It takes a lot of work to keep me from being a greaseball throughout the day. I have to use a semi mattifying primer (primed and poreless pure by too faced because it's oil free and isn't silicone based) and I set it with a powder and set it with Smashbox primer water and Urban decay de slick setting spray. It's really good for photos because it doesn't have spf so you won't get a flashback unless you set with a translucent powder, but it isn't a long lasting foundation. It lasts pretty well for me, but when it starts to wear off you can tell. It also transfers pretty bad, not going to lie. I haven't used the mufe one, but Smashbox Studio skin might be something you'd like. It's a long wearing one and great for oily skin. The finish isn't as natural as born this way, but it will look just fine in pictures. It was my first high end foundation love and I still go back to it every so often. Hope this helped!

I currently use the mufe foundation stick and have super oily skin! it lasts me an entire day. I prime with too face rx primer and set it with urban decay deslick, lasts me at least 10 hours.

I've tried samples of the too faced foundation and I didn't like it. It felt really heavy on the skin, made me very oily, didn't last long and the colour vanilla was too yellow for me. I have combo skin with dry areas.

Rebecca has a good point about the undertones. I work at Ulta so I've put born this way on a lot of skin tones and the whole line tends to run more yellow. They tried to make it so every other shade had a yellow/pink undertone, but even the pink ones have a bit too much yellow in my opinion, especially when it comes to the lightest shades. Porcelain is supposed to be one of the pink ones, but I actually stopped using it for awhile because I couldn't stand how yellow it was on me. I mean it wasn't something that most people would notice, but I did. Now tf has come out with two shades lighter and four darker than what they had and the new ones flatter more pale people like me. I now wear snow (the lightest one lol) and I love how it looks!
