well I was planning to get Origin´s Zero Oil as Anya/Angela suggested (which one is your real name btw? *g*)

but I found out Origins is not available in Austria. that sucked. so I went into a sephore-type store (sephora without nars,lm,stila,UD and benefit of course) and they only carried ONE (!!!!!) Anti-Shine Primer. it was chanel so I didn´t even ask for the price cause I´m sure it would have been way too expensive!

so I ended up going to MAC and bought the Blot Powder in Medium cause I didn´t know what else to get since nobody seems to have the need for anti-shine primers in Austria

and after that I went to Makup 4ever and got the green tinted primer (supposed to cancel out redness). hope that one works on my blotchy skin! well MU 4ever did have an anti-shine primer but it was like 20 bucks and the tube was TINY! but I might still get it if the blot powder can´t prevent oiliness.

I just have to blot and touch up a lot!

it´s the nose+forehead for me too. I hope the stuff I got will help at least a little bit. I just don´t wanna think of my mu all day and keep running to the bathroom to blot& touch up. that´s too much work for a lazy person like me

I have the same problem with oiliness on the T-zone so I have to touch up too. I've also found the blotting papers work well instead of using so much powder to touch up.

I've also found the blotting papers work well instead of using so much powder to touch up. yeah I was thinking of getting blotting papers. but I want cheaper ones than MAC`s. I think they´re like $13..and I don´t know how many papers are in there

I don´t think there are any cheaper ones here. I know Clean & Clear makes blotting films too, but again they´re not available over here ;-(
