Hi everyone,
I was hoping for some suggestions or help. I have extremely oily skin and my skin has been rough and dull lately as well. My oily skin has been an issue for years. It makes every single brand of foundation come off within a few hours of applying. I feel like I've tried everything. Does anyone have suggestions?
Also I find my concealer under my eyes looks cakey- any tips for that too?
These things make me rather insecure when people are talking to me because I feel they can see my make up rubbing off or my extremely shiny skin.
Thanks everyone!!

I have an exfoliant from darphin and I bought a clarisonic hoping that would help. I'll look into dermalogica. Any specific scrub?

I really swear by milk of magnesia. It's a laxative but it can be used as a makeup primer. I've been using it every single for a month and it has been life changing. My skin has always been horrible oily to the point of excess acne. But when I use it, it keeps me matte all day and it's clearing up my skin. I love it. Buy it from the dollar store (original. No scents or flavors) http://youtu.be/ZGjKRxN5xrk.

For my oily skin. It worked from the day I tried it. For my acne, I noticed after 3 weeks. How did you use it and what did you use?
