Women with oily skin seems especially passionate about her beauty products. What can help you make your makeup long-lasting? We asked experts and our own editors to share theirs—products proved to be winners in the struggle against overambitious oil glands. Here are the 5 makeup and skin care picks they’re vouching for, all worthy additions to your makeup bag and top shelf.
Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder
While the urge to mattify oily skin by any means necessary, especially in the summer time, is strong, experts recommend resisting the urge. “People sometimes think they should pile on the powder to keep their makeup looks matte, but all this does is shove the oil and makeup into layers,” says celebrity makeup artist Jo Baker. A lighter hand works infinity times better. “I recommend using blotting papers to remove the oil first and then use a translucent, light powder for the finish you would like to maintain,” she says.
Nars Velvet Matte Skin Tint
Since hitting shelves last year, this oil-free formula has become an instant staple. No surprise, since it serves up broad-spectrum SPF of 30 and pore-minimizing ingredients along with its lightweight, buildable coverage. “I love using this new matte tint on oily skin,” says makeup artist Kayleen McAdams. “The texture is creamy, almost like a mousse, but it doesn’t look heavy. And the color selection is amazing.”
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion
Eyeshadow can feel futile for those with overambitious oil glands. This primer—from one of the best brands for won’t-budge makeup—ensures your time spent blending won’t be in vain. “It’s perfect for anyone with oily lids to use so their eyeshadow won’t disappear, crease, or turn greasy-looking,” says makeup artist Nick Barose. Fun fact: It’s also a key tool in keeping concealer from rubbing off a pimple.
Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 Hour Blush
The oilier your skin, the less likely that your pretty flushed cheeks will last past lunchtime. But this favorite formula is proved to require touchups far less frequently than most. “It’s long-wearing, so it won’t disappear on you, and the formula helps control oil,” Barose notes. Plus, its finish is totally devoid of shine. “If you have oily skin, it’s better to opt for matte blushes, not shimmer,” he says.
Shiseido Pureness Moisturizing Gel-Cream
If only oily meant never having to moisturize. To target dry zones without exacerbating oiliness in other spots, try this lightweight hydrator. “Gel moisturizers in general are a good way to go with oily skin, as is any that’s labeled ‘mattifying,'” recommends dermatologist Ranella Hirsch. “This Shiseido product combines a really good moisturizer with a very elegant delivery.”
Don’t worry anymore, these products can solve your problems. They are really suitable with your skin even in summer season. Moreover, their prices are good for your budget. Grab it now!
