I haven't found one not to pricy. Stila has a mattifying balm and It's 30 dollars and really good. Mac prep an prime radiance is 40 and pretty good along with the oil control lotion. I would highly recommend washing your face in the morning with a gel cleanser specifically for oily skin ad then use a oil control toner like botanics from target and it's 8 dollars and awesome. Also try moisturizing at night with a natural oil. It will keep your skin hydrated which will help you produce less oil. Urban decay has a setting spray for oily skin and I personally like it for setting my makeup and controlling oil. A translucent powder should help through out the day. And Nyx has some great blotting papers for 3 dollars.

Milk of Magnesia. Best beauty secret. I use it. It mattifies the face all day. I love it. My skin is super oily and it keeps me matte and has helped my acne

^ I pour slowly 3 drops into the clear 2nd lid of the milk of magnesia and I use my fingers to smearing it on oily areas (my whole face lol) not rubbing it in too much. Then I let it dry for 3 mins. It turns white and I apply my product
