Stop don't use mac fix+ it's not a proper setting spray and it's not great on oily skin. Xoxo.

Are you moisturizing prior to application? Sometimes moisturizers and primers don't pair well with each other or foundation.

Rozberry, yes in the morning I moisturize then put my primer & foundation. Should I not moisturize before I put on my primer.

No no..that's good! But if you mix Oil based products with Water based...well..as they say oil and water don't mix; you'll end up with sliding.

I'd give my moisturizer a bit to soak in, switch to hourglass primer and try Urban Decay's de-slick. Hopefully that will help. I do my heavy moisturizing at night and for day, keep it light with CeraVe AM.

Okay thank you for the tips! I'll definatly look into those products :) do you suggest the porefessional at all?

I agree with Megan on using a toner BTW. I adore Mario Badescu's Seaweed Cleanser one. It is aloe based and is not drying. :)

I use the Neutrogena alcohol free toner, I'm not sure if it's a good one because I don't know much about what to look for in a toner.

I think The Porefessional is good, but Hourglass is my own personal favorite primer. The mineral veil is light and absorbs nicely..creating a smooth, even canvas.

You want something aloe based and alcohol free in a toner. I'm not familiar with your current one. I'm sorry. :/

Actually I have found my skin, which is extremely oily, is horrible if I put moisturizer on before makeup. Maybe you should try moisturizing less or even doing it in the evenong rather than morning. Also toner is extremely helpful!!

You could try setting your foundation with a powder as well as a primer and setting spray. Try oil blotting sheets throughout the day and maybe bring some powder with you to do touchups during the day. This will keep your makeup looking fresh.
