I have always bought my foundations from high end stores and they always find the perfect shade for me. I don't have much money as I just had a baby and I want to find a nice drug store foundation. I'm really nervous that I won't be able to find the perfect match. any tips on how to match it perfectly? and a good drug store foundation for oily skin.

Compare the color to the color of your old high end foundation.. or rub the color into your skin..

It's realllllly hard because you can't test them out in drugstores. I hate it! I'm forever getting the wrong shade in drugstore foundations haha ugh. You can try findation.com though, personally I've had the most luck when basing my decisions off of that site.

The one with the best color range, for oily skin, would be L'Oreal true match in my opinion. The only one thing that sucks is its only for for colder weather months, in the summer it's horrrrrible.

My husband threw it away since it was empty and I just sitting there for like 3 months lol I haven't been wearing any foundation. and rub it onto my neck? I'm nervous since the lighting in the stores isnt as good.

Thank goodness its winter then lol and I will look at that website thank you! I hope I find the right shade as when I was younger I remember walking around either to dark or too light or to orange lol.

I'm saying lol! Also, revlon color stay is alright for oily skin if you prefer a matte finish and full coverage. I personally wasn't a fan of it but it does keep you matte and last for a long time

Also heard good things about the maybelline matte mousse.

I use that website that Renay mentioned. It really is accurate. As for a good foundation for oily skin I have dry skin so I can't help on that!
