Oily skin

I have very very oily skin and need a new foundation that stays put. I've been using the Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation but that has gone really patchy and also the Benefit Oxygen Wow which just slides off my face, both within a couple of hours even though I set them with a primer and powder.
I would be very grateful for any recommendations and would also appreciate any other recommendations on the best moisturizers etc.
Thankyou!! Smile

I have oily skin too - its so bad that I have to use antibiotic cream to keep it under wraps!

I use the true match mineral range from Loreal - I find it covers really well and it doesnt block up my pores :-) I use the mineral powder one- its a cheaper version of that other mineral range that you see advertsied on TV.

I find that foundation creams just really dont work well with my skin, the powder ones generally seem to work better!

It stays on quite well - although be careful when you apply, the powder gets everywhere!

Everyones skin is different though and its taken me a while to find a cover up that works well with my skin. I hope that helps!

Diorskin Nude is good for me.

I use Clinique anti blemish 3-step system, and the cream is great for me. Other oil free creams are also good - I have Illamasqua HydraVeil and other ones from Uriage and Gatineau, all good.

Mattifying primers are good - there's one from Laura Mercier called secret finish, which works fine for me.

I touch up with pressed powder during the day, but blotting papers are also an option.
