Bare Minerals and or Essentials. This make up is in a powder form, very light weight and let's your natural skin shine through. I love it because it blends well, provides excellent coverage and it actually does my skin good. It would be great for you because the minerals are good for your skin and the powder helps with the oil. Good Luck!

Pur Minerals, Bare Minerals, L'Oreal Mineral Powder, Physician's Formula Minerals and Jane Iredale are the top ones for Mineral Makeup.
Mineral makeup is made of natural minerals derived from the earth, these minerals are not only inorganic but they are also extremely resistant to water. They actually act as a shield on your face keeping bacteria feeding moisture away from your pores. Mineral makeup is not soluable in water so even if you put water directly on your face the minerals will not be absorbed and the water cannot pass through.
Mineral makeup does not clog pores either. Because it is so finely milled during production, the granules are much smaller than your pores. This not only prevents acne from forming, but makes the makeup extremely easy to blend into the skin with a very flawless look and conceals problem areas very well. If you suffer from a break out the finely milled minerals are very effective as disguising it.
Because of these and other unique qualities mineral makeup is known througout the world as the skin care makeup and recommended to acne sufferers by dermatologists.
Ultimately, it does not matter what the cause of your acne is, without water to feed the bacteria, and something to clog the pores and hold that moisture in acne cannot form or worsen. If you suffer from acne, mineral makeup may end up being your best friend.
I'd also try Almay's Smart Shade Selector Foundation.

Okay girl, i got you covered! Max factor foundation (they sell it at almost all drug stores.) And then a powder on top. I use Toni Bratton powder...but you can only get it off the internet and tv so...you might want to just try a different one that appeals to you at the store. But definitly go with max factor. :] Also, the best blending eyeshadow (just so you know) is Urban Decay. They have beautiful shades and are sold in sephoria, lovely boutique, and sometimes macy's. Good luck :]
