Hi, I am currently using the aspirin wash and oil of olay for sensitive skin moisturizer and with in a couple hours my face is an oil slick. Especially my forhead. Could anyone recommend maybe a different moisturizer or something else to do to get rid of it? And if you could recommend a foundation to use? I was thinking maybe a powder one instead of a liquid, anyone know how revlon is? Or maybe clinique?(like their superpowder or perfectly something) Would love your guys advice and recs. Thanks.

 
I use an oil free moisturizer. I am super oily through the t zone. I use a powder foundation now (Makeup Forever Duo Mat) and MAC blot powder. I only have to touch up powder once during the day and it is humid here.

 
After 25 years of trying to get rid of the oil in my t-zone, I've learn that I can't. I can only manage it. With that said, I use Neutrogena Rapid Clear Oil-Eliminating Foaming Cleanser, Matte primer by MAC (or Smashbox primer), MAC Blot Powder, and MAC's blot papers. I blot my face once throughout the day. I've also been a stick-powder foundation girl. I find that this works best for my face; it stays put.

 
Hi,

Whatever moisturizer or liquid foundation you use, make sure they're water-based. The moisturizer should be of an oil-control nature. Also use a primer for oily skin.

For touch-ups during the day, alternate between oil control blotting tissues and oil control powder.

 
I really like Paula's Choice skin balancing moisturiser, it's great for oily skin. As for foundation, I use Maybelline Pure, Laura Mercier oil free and Chanel double perfection compact.

 
Mineral makeup helps my skin look more matte ...there are also mattefying creams that you can get

 
Thank you all for your replys, I just love everyone here at mut. You all are so very sweet and helpful and have great advice!

 
I have started to use Paula's Choice skin care and Bare Essentials night time treatment and my skin has never looked better. I got the kit for breakouts which has alot of products and the best moisterizer for oily skin I have ever used. Check out her site and see if those products interest you.
