Foundation for oily skin without clogging my pores was something that eluded me for 25 years and I have used every drugstore brand, department store, and even mail-order brands like SheerCover, Bare Mineral, etc. and have two that I highly recommend and are very affordable.
- "Skin Stays Clean" foundation by Almay
- "pure makeup" foundation by Maybelline
The one by Maybelline is my favorite. It comes in every shade, shine-free with H20, and oil free.
And remember, always apply a light dusting of face powder after applying your foundation to set it and keep it shine-free for hours.

I have oily skin as well and your best bet is not to use a liquid fondation at all! if you go to the Mac store at a mall near you ( Mac is usually inside of Macys) they have a bunch of powders but the NW line is for people with oily skin like me and you. thats what you wanna use. I use NW 42 by Mac but im dark skinned so all pending upon your skin color you wanna pick a shade that blends in and if you need help they have make up artists who are willing to assist you! good luck

If you like cheaper makeup cover girl has some good foundation for oily skin. Their simply powder foudation works really well and helps control oil.

MAC has a great foundation that mattifies your skin and won't clog pores. Just ask the sales person to help you...or, just look. It's the only one in a tube kind of packaging.

I have a foundation by Collection 2000, it's called "Natural Matt+ Foundation" which is meant to make your skin look matt. It's really quite cheap and works nicely too. :)
Good luck. :)

Whichever one you choose, set it wuth loose powder to neutralize the oily spots. Use blotting tissues during the day. Good luck!

the neautrogena foundation is excellent especially with some pressed powder over it dries up any excess oiliness
