If your makeup melts no matther what brand you use, then you should look after your skin. Start by a deep cleaning with a good cleanser that is for oily skin. Then use toner. After that apply your lotion, also for oily skin. Wait untill your skin absorbs it completely, then dot a creamy conceler under your eyes and use some foundation on top of your eye lids and powder them.. This will help your eye makeup not to melt. Now it's time for the eye shadow, forget about the creamy one, best to use the powder shadow. When you're done, add some eyeliner and mascara .. Choose waterproof ones if you want (though I don't recommend that because they're hard to get rid of with a makeup remover and they need one for waterproof makeup which contains rough ingredients that are not good for the health of your lashes)
I always recommend that you do you eye makeup before before you start with the foundation, to keep your face clean because the eye makeup needs lots of work and attention.
Then time for your gloss/lipstick and powder blush.
Tip: carry a brumisator.. It's like a spray-bottle of mineral water usually (you can fill any spray bottle with water or mineral water prferably) But anyways always keep it in the fridge , it should be cooool.Every now and then spray some like 6 inches away from your face and then put a thin tissue on your face without rubbing, just to absorb the sweat and to refresh your face.
Tip # 2 Use a makeup fixer, I never used one myself but I guess it's just another spray but like a hair spray only this is for face to fix your makeup once you're done.
I hope this helped you.

I used to have the same problem. Recently I started using Bare minerals.its that powder mineral makeup that you see on the infomercials. This stuff is RAD. It stays on all day and my skin cleared up too. I guess it was the chemicals in the stuff I was using that were making me break out. Go figure. It's not cheap, but it's super easy to apply, and you can't even tell your wearing it! It covers EVERYTHING and looks just like skin. They have this starter kit for $60 at sephora that comes with 2 shades of foundation (for winter and summer) this stuff called mineral veil that is like a translucent powder that sets everything in place for the whole day, this bronzer stuff called warmth that gives you a nice healthy glow, and all the brushes you will need to use the makeup as foundation and consealer. Refills of each one are like $15, but I've been using it for 5 months now and haen't run out of anything yet. I've even had people at the cosmetics counter ask me what I used to keep my skin so perfect!

To make your foundation last start with a clean face followed by an oil-free moisturizer for the sake of your skin try to find one with sun protection. Allow it to dry for about 5 min. For foundation I recommend Revlon's Colorstay Foundation; it last the whole day, does not rub off, contains SPF 6, is oil-free and provides incredible coverage. After you have applied the foundation allow it to set for a about 5 min. Then apply pressed powder (Revlon Colorstay Pressed Powder) with a big brush that would be used with loose powder to set the Foundation. For eyeshadow, blush, lipstick, mascara etc.. Try MAC Cosmetics they work great and last they also have all kinds of colors.

Clinique almost makeup is good, really light coverage w/spf 15, it doesnt' seem to melt when the weather is hot and humid. AND if you wait and purchase it durings the belks/dillards/Kohls bonus buys days, you get a bunch of free stuff too.

Your face is probably as oily as mine. I had the same problem and believe it or not, some products made it worst. Try a powder foundation like Virtual Face by Physician Formulas. This does not contain any oil and does not irritate the skin.

Try something made for sports, Almay used to have a base that wasn't too oily

Maybelline "Wonder Finish" works great...and always remember to apply a matte finish powder to help set your make up. It makes it stay fresher...longer!

Find waterproof makeup. Any brand should be fine.
