High street foundation for oily skin

Just as the title says really, I need a cheap foundation for oily skin. I am currently going between benefit hello flawless and Rimmel anti fatigue. But am shiney by lunch Time (I do blot off excess oils and set with powder) Smile

Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse is probably the best I've tried (tried most of the high st brands). Would love to say it's a miracle answer but some days there's just no beating the shine so I use blotting papers too!

I use No 7 Beautifully matte foundation. My skin is very oily and any make up i put on is usually gone by early afternoon... this foundation holds up quite well i find

Another vote for Revlon Colourstay. I still have to blot regularly (because my skin is just THAT OILY) but it holds up well and is very natural-looking. I've tried a lot of mattifying foundations (including some pretty pricey ones) and this is the best I've found so far.

I set it with Soap&Glory pressed powder (I think it's called The Blot?), which I discovered via some beauty blog. It is an absolutely fantastic powder - translucent but not cakey or powdery.

Bourjois healthy mix is good - don't get the serum version though as this is v dewy.
