I have the same skin omg don't wear liquid foundation wear powder. I like revlon. Also, you can get blotting tissues an just pat your face whenever it gets oily and it won't take off your makeup! Also don't wear primer it makes your face even more oily.

Right now I use Mac studio fix! And I don't use primer or anything I just apply my makeup but then it starts to look caked on:/ ugh.

Ohh this may be it. Do you use a moisturizer? Every morning and night? Before I used a moisturizer every night and my powder caked on in the morning. Even though I had oily skin my skin would dry or after I washed it in the morning I guess so the powder would look cakey. I use Clinique 3 step solution for oily if you want to try it out. It's really good (:

Also if you have acne I suggest the acne version. And it's pretty expensive but definitely worth it.

Try a mattifying primer and oil free makeup as well as oil free and mattifying moisturizer and use a setting powder over it to help mattify even more.

For primer use Milk of Magnesia! You can find it at CVS or Walgreens in the medicine section. It's a milky substance used as a laxative but many girls with oily skin use it as a primer (including myself) and it works wonders! Leaves your face matte all day

Moustuizer is a must for oily skin. make sure its oil free of course but if you don't use it before you apply foundation, your skin reacts by producing oil because it thinks your skin is dry. just apply lotion, let it dry for at least 10 mins, blot your tzone and chin with tissue and done.
