Can anyone recommend a good drugstore foundation for oily skin.
Or ways to prevent oily skin?

I rarely wear foundation, because i have decent complextion but i do like how foundation just makes the whole look, look complete.
So Advice, Please?

I have combination oily skin and i am a huge fan of neutrogena healthy skin foundation. You will need to set it with a powder but the coverage it gives is beautiful...quickly becoming a cult fav!!

Neutrogena healthy skin is awesome I also have oily skin and this helps me out! I set it with a translucent powder and for primer I love the Nyx studio perfect photo-loving primer. =) hope this helps.

I love Maybelline's Fit Me Foundation, Neutrogena Healthy Skin is nice too. You should try the L'Oreal Studio Secrets Magic Perfecting Base Face Primer. Hard Candy's Sheer Envy Face Primer is a good primer aswell.

I like Neutrogena Clear Skin foundation. Just feels so good. A good way to cut down on oiliness is dandruff shampoo. It can dry your skin out but it does the trick.

Yes ma'am. My mom would always tell me to wash my face with it whenever it got oily or I had a break out. Usually cleared me up within a day or sol

Revlon ColorStay Foundation is the best for oily/combo skin as it is a mattifying foundation! I highly recommend.

Prevention-wise? Get a good skincare routine going, and do NOT skip moisturizer. *nods*

i love makeup forever HD they have the matt one thats non comedgenic and it would be great if your skin is oily and it wont clog your pores and looks really natural wich i love but does a great job at coverage and you can always add more which is nice. and if you have oily skin you should try primed and poreless its fantastic!!

Because I'm a girl of darker complexion I was always scared to try BB Creams. I still wear foundation in the summer, but when I don't want a heavy coverage I apply a tip I learned on Youtube. It's another DIY tinted moisturizer, instead you use your regular moisturizer and mix it with your favorite mineral foundation. I actually tried it and like it.
