Something that really helps me with that is baby powder. First I use my regular foundation, then I put 2 pinches of baby powder on my my compact and it mixes in with the compact powder and put that on for a smooth, dry finish. The baby powder actually absorbs moisture so it will help keep your face dry, kind of like anti-perspirant.....for your face.

Try a powder or a "liquid to powder" foundation. Mineral powders work well as foundations that help prevent shine, and cover well. Applying a make up primer and/or mattifying agent before foundation may also help. If you only need coverage in a few places, consider just using concealer - there are many formulas that tend to be a little more drying, but will not get as glossy looking.

get the dream matte mouse foundation from Maybelline for a matte look. Also, try using oil blotters and things like that to keep yourself looking fresh all through the day! Hope this helps!

Bare Essentials make up! It's the best! The foundation is not a liquid and it gives you a true matte look. It's great for your skin. You can get a starter kit with all you need including their vitamin lotion for $60. You can order online or if you have a Sephora make up store nearby, they carry it also.

I have issues with that too.
It's from over active oil glands just eat right, wash your face as directed on the container annnnnnd.....
Use Almay oil absorbing foundation or powder. It works pretty well.
