If you love a matte and poreless-as-possible makeup base as much as the next person, but I don’t want to have oily and shiny skin a few hours in, this is the list for you. I’ve put together this list of products that I’ve used as a skin prep routine to prevent excess oil, while still keeping my skin adequately hydrated, and I’ve gone as far to test that they all work together in any combination. Remember: This is a skincare routine for oily skin and emphasized pores and is not meant to be added on top of your usual routine. To make it easier to follow an oily skin routine, I’ve structured the list in order of application. Check out my “Tried & True Skincare for Oily, Acne-Prone Skin” list for more products that I’ve tried for my everyday skincare routine!
