Best foundation for oily yet sensitive skin

Have an oily complexion. Currently using CHANEL Perfection Lumiere Velvet but it's starting to irritate my very sensitive skin. Loved Double Wear light in the past but also ended up with the same issue. Any suggestions?

Have you tried nars pure radiant tinted moisturiser? Has more coverage than the average tm. Are you anywhere near a counter to ask for a sample?

Not tried a NARS foundation although I'm a big fan of their audacious lipsticks... unfortunately I don't live anywhere near a store/concession. I tend to buy their stuff online... wonder if I sent them a pic they'd colour match me? Mac have done that for me before, worth a try!

depends what sort of coverage you like - I love Nars Sheer Glow for medium, Origins tinted moisturiser for light, and UD all nighter for heavy :)

Watching with interest as I have an oily complexion and struggle particularly in summer. I like Nars tinted at the weekend and it stays on surprisingly long, but like something heavier for the week when I’m at work. Wearing Charlotte Tilbury light wonder which I really like when I put on - but it never seems to last all day.

Nars sheer glow is very good for sensitive, oily skin (like mine). You can build it up to achieve whatever coverage you like.

I also bought their tinted moisturiser - I did like it, but I was a little disappointed as it really didn't help my oily skin. I had quite a sheen when wearing this.. so be careful using it in the hot weather!
