how to prevent oily faceafter you apply make up?

Answer 1

Make sure you always use oil free products , that includes oil free moisturiser ( yes it is still important to moisturise even if your skin is oily).

You should be able to purchase blotting paper for the face, this usually has a slight talc powder covering on top that gives you a nice matt look throghout the day when used.

Answer 2

I use 'facial blotting tissue'. They are little rectangular pieces of paper with a bit of talc on one side. They soak up the oil. I got mine from Crabtree & Evelyn. The Body Shop made some really good ones but I'm not sure if they still have them there. It's much better than using regular powder to cover up the oil since that just keeps adding makeup to your face and eventually you look cakey. I use regular tissue sometimes but that just ends up removing your makeup over the course of the day.

Answer 3

Oil-absorbing sheets. You can get them at the drugstore for $5 clean & clear makes great ones. The also sell more expensive ones at Shesido but the clean & clear work great. Just use them all day long to keep from being shiny and you won't be all powdery.
