which foundation is good for greasy skin?

Question

the skin on my forehead gets really greasy and the foundation just disapears from it. which foundation should i wear? i cant afford to keep reaplying it every few hours.

also i need it for clubbing/dates

Answer 1

More lime in the mix, and give it 24 hours longer before you lay the flagstones

I know a guy in Guilford'll do it for you

Answer 2

I agree that your first point of call should be to try and tackle the greasy skin (easier said than done - been there myself!). After you've found yourself a good facewash/cleanser (Garnier do a good range) then try the foundation!

I swear by Boots No.7 Intelligent Balance foundation - it's oil free and gives a really good coverage. Or maybe a tinted moisturiser - there are loads of brands out there (again No.7 do a good oil free one) and are lighter than foundation.

I know I sound like a Boots employee here but I think I've finally found something that works for me!

The first thing you need to do is deal with the oily skin. Find a cleanser with clay in it, that will help with the oily skin. Although expensive, I love Dermalogica's Dermal Clay Cleanser, you can find it at better salons or cheaper on Ebay. They also have an Oil Control Lotion that I put on after washing my face. I would not recommend using liquid foundation. Start with a loose translucent powder and use a brush to put it on. Some will help soak up some of the extra oil on your face. I use a compressed powder, from Jane Iredale, its a mineral make up line. It contains SPF and is completely natural. I hope this helps!

Use an oil free stick foundation and ONLY apply it where you need it. You should try blotting oil sheets to freshen up your face throughout the day. They help to keep your face clean and makeup looking fresh. I LOVE them, it beats reapplying foundation or powdering your face every half hour!!! You can get them almost anywhere and they range in price. I really like E.L.F cosmetics blotting sheets for only $1 a pack (which is dirt cheap). It has tea tree oil in it which acts as an antibacterial to kill all the germs on your face that may produce more acne. Check out your local drugstore, or www.elfcosmetics.com

Answer 5

I use a maybelline stick foundation called 3 in 1(foundation, concealer, SPF 15). I have oily skin too. It works pretty well for me

Answer 6

I strongly inspire you to top your pores and skin with a non oil based primer in the previous putting on commencing up, it will make a international of distinction. Primer ideas are Dermalogica's "Clearing Mattifier" or SmashBox's "gentle Primer". As for commencing up i come across that Studio restore by using MAC has shown the appropriate for vivid pores and skin (I certainly have severe oil issues) and the final and maximum extreme section is sealing with a powder. My everyday is the transulcent HD powder by using Make up continuously.

Answer 7

I use Lancome its like 35 bucks but its last long and i usually have oilly skin but with this foundation it doesnt happen! Try it out tell them what your looking for and they'll match u right there and u done! but buy the brush to it makes your makeup look flawless

Answer 8

I would reccomend a compact foundation or maybelline dream matt mousse, or any mousse foundation really. Avoid cream and liquid products including eye make-up. I hope this helped good luck!

Answer 9

well just do what i do... get your butt to a drug store and find the makeup ile find your skin tone and just blend it. but then again the reason your fore head is greasy could be because of your foundation. so lay off it for like 1 week then see your results.

Answer 10

MAC studio fix foudation is really good. I have really oily
skin and this is the only foundation that keep my face looking fresh all day and I only have to apply twice a day.

Answer 11
