Everything I've tried you can see it. My pores and all. I tried Bare Minerals too, and you could totally see it. I'm gonna lose my tan soon, and I need some new foundation.

First of all, get some of those oil-absorbing pads that don't remove your makeup. They're expensive, but if you have oily skin, they're worth it...Because no foundation for oily skin, no matter how well made, will not totally prevent your oily skin from showing through eventually.
Also, try long-lasting foundation instead of the stuff that's made for oily skin. Trust me. It actually works better. I like Max Factor.
Finally, make sure you're using translucent powder. Everyones skin looks oily after a while if they don't use powder on their face.

Try Clinique pressed powder foundations. Search around on their website - they have an awesome selection of makeup for all skin types.
You can also fill out a skin survey which will allow the website to recommend make-up that is best for your skin.

Be thankful that you have oily skin you will age better. ♥
Try Matt Foundations that are water based and use a Translucent powder over the top to seal it, if this seems a little pale then dust your face with a large dusting brush loaded with bronzing tint.
I have oily skin and this works for me.
Try http://wwwavonuk.com and check what they have to help you. Prices are reasonable too.

Find a foundation with no oil and top it with a coarse powder like Cornsilk. There are also blotting "papers" (Clean & Clear) you can use to absorb oil throughout the day so as not to disturb your foundation. Good luck!

Water based. Never oil based. You didn't mention whether you had breakouts or what your age is, but there is something called Nature's Cure that is made with papaya enzymes that is really great for oily skin. There is a cleanser, an astrigent and a moisturizer.

I would call a Mary Kay representative. They are serious and will show you exactly what you need according to your skin. And also the right color,so you don't have a line from face to neck and below,should you be showing a little bit more skin.

You need a liquid to powder foundation. Something that dries into a powder. Then get a clean blush brush a big one and dust your face with talcum powder.
