Try a primer and a setting spray instead of putting so much powder on.

I don't think you're wearing too much powder- the sweat and facial oil will cause your powder, foundation, and other face makeup to separate. If you were wearing other products such as foundation and concealer, I would also use a mattifying or smoothing primer and a setting spray as Alexandra said. Hope this helped!

Its not separate its like when you put that powder too much and water somewhere and it dries it makes like cloudy effect I don't know how to explain so whn I was out it was very hot and sweating too much as soon as I don't in the mall it I din swear again.and not to mention I did use setting spray which is model in the bottle as I thought that would hold my makeup very well

I don't know how to explain how my face looked not separate only but it looked like extra powder which I though it caused that cloudy effect while I was sweating.I don't know if I made sense??

I prefer translucent powders for day-time use. NYX HD Photogenic powder never looks weird on me and I'm quite oily.

Rather than reapplying powder, try blotting your face :) And I agree with the other girls. Translucent powders are great!

I never re-powder during the day, so I agree with Hannah on simply blotting excess oil. As long as you aren't rubbing your face, you should see minimal (if any) disturbance to your makeup.

I never re apply either as I'm a busy mum once I put makeup I never get time to touch up.I used the mac powder foundation as I dint like to look of liquid foundation on me in this hot and humand weather then I topped it with rcma no color powder just to keep me extra matte.
