Well to really be able to tell you what to maybe try out, answer a couple more questions...
- What type of coverage are you looking for? Just a sheer tint? Evening the skin a bit, or lots of coverage?
- Do you prefer a liquid, creme or powder?
- When you say your skin is oily, is it just in the T zone (which is pretty normal) or is it literally your entire face is greasy?

It really depends on what you are looking for as far as foundation whether it has a lot of coverage or not... Lighter options for foundations would be Hyper Real, Face and Body (my fave), Select Tint, and Moistureblend foundations. I would definitely recommend everyone to try them out at a MAC Counter or Store before you buy it and get artist recommendations!!

LOL So many people (especially with oily skin) tend to breakout with their foundations. And like a few people already mentioned, their products are rather thick, so unless you can thin them down, I wouldn't bother.

I have severely breakout prone skin, as in I went on Accutane for 9 mos and still break out if I am not careful. ANY person can break out if something isn't right for their skin or if they are not cleansing their skin properly. I also still have fairly oily skin and I don't have a problem with our foundations and I wear full makeup on a daily basis and not heavy coverage...
Unless you really have done your research be careful what you say bc it will give people incorrect impressions. I have used MAC for 3+ yrs, skincare and makeup products and my skin has gotten better than when I used "acne products" and other makeup brands.
