It's a million degrees where I live and I'm already prone to oily skin. Here are some of my tried and true go-tos when I need to get a little fancified.
An oldie but goody. This primer works with almost all of my favorite foundations and really locks it in!
0.75 oz The POREfessional Pore Minimizing Primer - Benefit Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
This is my holy grail foundation. It stays on forever! Yes, it can look cakey if you apply it with your fingers, but using a Beauty Blender (or your sponge of choice!) makes a HUGE difference.
I don't use this for baking, but I do use it for setting my foundation. Love it.
Easy Bake Loose Baking & Setting Powder
This setting spray didn't do anything for me, but my daughter (also oily) loves it.
On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray
This is another setting power fave of mine!
Translucent Loose Setting Powder
This article does a good job of explaining the difference between setting and finishing powders.
Demystifying Setting Powders vs. Finishing Powders
I'm oily, but I don't always want a super matte face. Hourglass makes the most gorgeous finishing powders that make you glow where you want to glow, without looking shiny. The powder formula helps to keep my makeup from sliding off of my face!
Ambient® Lighting Palette - Hourglass | Sephora
I just started to use this Vit C serum. At less than $20, I couldn't resist the opportunity to give it a whirl!
SeoulCeuticals 20% Vitamin C Hyaluronic Serum
I hate that I love this foundation because it's so expensive. It's light weight but evens out my skin tone and does a great job covering redness.
Power Fabric + Longwear High Cover Foundation SPF 25
This is one of my favorite setting sprays. I like the mini size because it lasts me forever.
Mini Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray
My eyelids are super oily - this primer helps a ton.
Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Anti-Aging
I'm an oily girl, even at 48. I love this powder because it's so fine and doesn't settle into my fine lines.
Ultra HD Microfinishing Loose Powder
This is my holy grail setting spray. It lasts forever!
