I have the same problem, plus a lot of goundations out there make me break out. What I'm using now and think I'm going to stick with is Almay. The yellow bottles are the ones for our type of skin. It doesn't stay on all day, but if you put powder over top, then it locks it on almost. That goes with almost any foundation. I also use the toner and that helps with the oil as well.Which foundation or make up should i use as i have very oily skin,, and sweat a lot on the face..pls help?????
be free and feel free like me!.
I stopped wearing foundation,partly 'cause of oily skin and partly cause i thought it actually made me look older!!
i can usally tell when people wear foundation, and now I actually like the natural look best.!!!
I have the same problem as you - oily skin, sweaty face, etc. I am 28 and have tried everything to come down the line since I was in middle school. The stand alone product that has worked for me is the i.d. bareMinerals foundation. It covers nicely (almost like a liquid, but without the weight) and really helps facial perspiration. Almay, Covergirl, etc. foundation - even if advertised for oily skin - just melts away. If you want to wear those brands, my other suggestion would be to invest in Dr.Feelgood by Benefits. It is a face balm and it really works to not only reduce the sweating but also to cover acne scarring or pits before you put your foundation on. Its pricey but a little goes a long way and it makes a HUGE difference. The last thing I would suggest is to use a toner after you wash your face to get rid of the red. I use witch hazel or Almay Toner 2 with Meadowsweet. Good luck!
You do need to use a long lasting foundation like revlon colorstay. You may need to consider using a primer under your foundation. You can't really find these in drugstores so will have to pay a little more. I use Clinique city block as a primer, it is really a sunscreen but has good oil control properties. There are some other good primers by Laura Mercier and smashbox. Go to a beauty site like sephora and enter ';primer'; and see what you get. The best thing to do really is go to the department store and get a consultation from a makeup artist.

Mac Foundation and Make up?
Is Mac foundation good for oily and acne prone skin?
Is it recommended for everyday wear?
I thinking of buying MAC make up (Foundation, conceler, eyeshadow, lipglass, brushes, all of it) and I dont know if its recommended for everyday use.
Im gonna use it at school and to other plces and stuff. :]
So, are MAC products good?Mac Foundation and Make up?
Mac Brushes, and gloss: Go for it.
Eyeshadow stays on long, and they have a wide variety of color choices
If I were you I would steer clear of their face makeup meaning foundation and concealers though. They tend to make people break out more. But you could always give it a tryMac Foundation and Make up?
MAC is heavy makeup and makes you break out as it clogs pores then it costs you a ton to try and fix your complexion stay clear if it. Try bee luscious cosmetics liquid powder mineral foundation,concealers and primer. Its great for everyday wear its hypo allergenic and will not clog pores at all. I love it, it has done miracles for my complexion.
Yes they have nice product I use their eyeshadow and lip gloss umm as far as foundation I use Mary Kay But I do have some Mac powder that I ocassionally use if I look extremely oily on the spot
Try bee luscious its oil free and will not clog pores. Its hypo allergenic I love it.I use it all the time

What are Make-up foundations made of?
im doing this project......its a long story so anyway can anyone tell me what basic ingredients you need to make makeup foundations?? im not doing one at home really but i need to include it in the pro. plz help
thx 0.~What are Make-up foundations made of?
Where to begin when it comes to fact finding on cosmetic ingredients can be overwhelming - there are so many variations within chemical families, so I have put the start of a list together of some of the good, the bad and the nasty.
OCTYL METHOXYCINNAMATE and BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOL METHANE absorb UVL. TITANIUM DIOXIDE and ZINC OXIDE are used in broad spectrum sunscreens for their UVA/ UVB absorbing qualities.
UREA is a moisturizing agent, which holds moisture rather than attracts it (BE AWARE of humectants, such as sorbelyne and glycerine, as these attract moisture. This means that if the humidity of your skin is higher than the atmosphere, i.e. air-conditioning, Australia from Feb. to Nov.; these ingredients will draw moisture out of your skin).
ALLANTOIN is a derivative of urea, extracted from herbs (originally used by the American Indians) - healing properties.
CAMOMILE AND ZINC OXIDE are also used for their skin healing properties.
PROPYLENE GLYCOL = antifreeze (good for cars, but not for skin).
TRIETHANOLENE = carcinogenic (very nasty)..
MINERAL OIL, LIQUID PARAFFIN, LIGHT LIQUID PARAFFIN = these are all the same product and are based on mineral oil, which is left over from the substance we keep our cars going with. Common usages include machine shop oil and sewing machine oil - very cheap and innocuous, derived from petroleum, contains impurities.
PETROLATUM, PETROLEUM JELLY, PARAFFIN = all are petroleum jelly, and are based on petroleum - petrol. Extremely drying on the skin.What are Make-up foundations made of?
fish scales. I know it sounds gross, but really thats the base of it.

Sephora Brand Make-up Users! What is the difference between the matifying compact POWDER and the FOUNDATION?
The Sephora brand matifying compact powder is $14 and the matifying compact foundation is $20. I know the foundation can be used wet/ dry, but are there any other advantages? Does it provide much better coverage than the powder? And is the powder really just like a loose powder, or does it actually provide coverage?Sephora Brand Make-up Users! What is the difference between the matifying compact POWDER and the FOUNDATION?
Powder is usually more sheer and used for covering up oil on your face/nose, and is sometimes used on top of foundation, and foundation usually evens out your skin tone more and provides more coverage.
I'm not so sure about the exact Sephora brand, but i'd suspect it's the same case. hope this helps :]

What is the best make up/concealer/foundation brand to cover acne scar?
im 26..caramel skin tone..help me..tqWhat is the best make up/concealer/foundation brand to cover acne scar?
bare escentuals. it's an all in one product. depending on how much you can use you can achieve a natural to super covered look. it can be used as a light powder, foundation, or concealer. also their product mineral veil is a great oil absorber for blotting.What is the best make up/concealer/foundation brand to cover acne scar?
Use a 30 caramel skin tone concealer, but when you put it on put it on the surrounding area first and they slowly pat it on the blemish but DON'T RUB it irritates the skin so be careful so PAT it on until it is smooth.
MAC.
I had the same issue and purchased Dermablend at Dillards. Let me tell you, it covered up every flaw on my skin. The girl at the store gave me a demo, and I was thinking she is just trying to con me into buying crap, but when she turned me around in the mirror, I was shocked and amazed. I have two scars on my nose from acne, and I have tried everything from Covergirl to Mac and this Dermablend stuff covered it up.
You can get a compact or a small container, and you only need just a tiny bit to cover it up. Even better you can get this setting poweder and it sets in the foundation, so it does not rub off. I am bad about touching my face, and this stuff does not come off. I also have darker skin, and found a perfect match. Hope that helps.

4 the GIRLS: Can anyone sugguest a great make up foundation?
I'm looking for a foundation that one, gives great coverage and covers blemeshis well but without that cakey look, I prefere liquid foundation, but any will do.
Department store brand wise not over the counter drug-store please!
I have a special event coming up so I need the suggestions.
Thanks ;D4 the GIRLS: Can anyone sugguest a great make up foundation?
I have Maybelline Mineral Power %26amp; I absolutely LOVE it! It's water proof and there's no streaks if you get the right shade. It's great for everday use and makes your skin flawless. It doesn't make your skin break out like others do. It's usually $8 and worth every penny!4 the GIRLS: Can anyone sugguest a great make up foundation?
MAC studio fix is great. It is easy to blend and last a long time. I use the SPF 50 primer and it doesn't make my skin greasy. I work for 10 hours a night, and at the end of night my face looks just as I first put it on! It doesn't go on ';too much'; if you use a light hand. People might just be used to using more product because with other brands you use a bigger amount. I have the Duo Fibre brush and it blends it even on your face.
Ben Nye products are really good, excellent coverage but still blends seamlessly.
They have great products for events/everyday use as well as for theater use.
Just be sure to get the right shade for your skin tone, and blend well!
Also be sure to cleanse and moisturize well before and after use.
Revlon Custom Creations works great. It's really easy to find your shade since there are 5 shades in each bottle. You just turn a dial at the top and test it out to get the shade that you want. I can sweat and sweat in this makeup and it DOES NOT come off. Just wear a light layer of powder foundation (anything from Cover Girl should work) over it so that it can settle and not look cakey.
I use Revlon New Complexion One Step Foundation and love it. It's a mixture of a liquid and a powder. It doesn't feel heavy and is oil free. It's found at the drug-store but I think it's great.
