I think there is better choices for oily skin.
I have tried EDM matt and semi-matt. EDM just did not last on me (and others have the said thing)
No comment on Meow as I have not tried it.
I am very oily. I like to use a primer with kaolin clay. Also another good one is from Aubrey Nicole - oil control powder. Samples are .99 each.
I think Lumiere Velvet Veena formula is better for oily. This is my medium coverage shade. It does contain oates. Sample kit available.
Current full coverage is Jenulence foundation concealer. It goes on matt.
I need a finishing powder and have lots. But the best for oil control is Lure finishing powder containing Rice Powder. I have Lure foundation samples and this would be a good choice also for oily skin. I like my Jenulence and Lumiere better for me. If you decide to order from Lure email them for colour suggestions. The finishing powder does not have good descriptions on the site IMO. They did email back quickly with the proper suggestion.
BTW I have tried finishing powders containing cornstarch (zea mays) including EDM and I just don't like the look. I did not have a reaction or anything bad; it just did not have a nice finish.
I am going to be trying another company.
Melange has good coverage (I am told by MMU fans) and they have a formula for oily skin. The oily skin formula contains kaolin clay.
Mineral Makeup and Cosmetics by MeLange
Currently Melange is offering 20% off on full sizes.
I have tried about 15 MMU companies.
