I have always used drugstore brand foundations and switch bewtween them but I've never really found one I'm satisfied with. I'm willing to go a little nore expensive but I never know what to pick! I have heard a lot about Revlon colorstay and Makeup For Ever HD and Elf flawless finish. I have also heard that Urban Decay naked is good as well. My mom swears by Clinique but has a darker skintone than me so I've never been able to try it. Im just very curious. I have combination oily skin so throughout the day oil starts to show through my makeup and it drives me insane and I have yet to find a solution. I also want it to still look natral though and I'm not sure the dewy look is right for me... any help please?!

there is revlon colorstay for oily skin u can purchase at drugstore or walmar, also i would exfoliate first, then use a primer, then foundation then concealer, spray with a finish spray and then move on to whatever else you normally do..

primer has a tightening effect on the face hence the reason for foundations staying in place. :)

btw when you exfoliate witchhazel is super key for oily skin. it will dry it all up.

The first tip I can give you is samples at sephora. Read up on products. If you see one you like go into sephora and ask for a color match and sample of that product.

2nd, I have vy oily skin. Make sure to apply primer. Personally I use too faced primed & poreless pure and put murad oil control mattifier in my oily zones (ex. T zone, forehead). I then stipple my foundation on. My favorite is Estée Lauder double wear. Then I finish with Rimmel stay matte powder (super affordable).

As you can see I pretty much have my face makeup down. I have tried so many products to get to this point and that is my number 1 suggestion, try things. What can work for me can not always work for you but I hope I helped a bit :)
