What foundations are good for oily skin?

admin — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 18:58:33 +0000

I have very oily skin and am looking for a new foundation to try that will last throughout the day. I’ve tried Bare Minerals, Neutrogena and Covergirl foundations and they leave my skin greasey and marble looking after an hour or so. It doesn’t matter if it is mineral or liquid foundation I just want something with a good coverage. Also, what concealer should I use to cover up mild acne?

Try Revlon ColorStay in the oily skin formula. It’s quite heavy coverage so you may not even need a concealer. Apply it with a standard foundation brush or a stippling brush – just work fast to blend.

Or, you could try L’Oreal True Match. This is light to medium coverage. There is a huge selection of shades.

If you still feel your need a concealer, try Maybelline Mineral Power.

Since you have oily skin I suggest setting your foundation with a powder. Maybelline Dream Matte Powder is great.

If you have oily skin is extra virgin olive oil still good for your skin?

admin — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 02:47:18 +0000

I have a few acne spots that I would love to get rid of before school starts on monday! I looked up that extra virgin olive oil is very good for your skin, nails, hair, diet and ect.

I have everything for a mask I found online and would like to use it sometime soon! I was just wondering that since I already have oily skin to begin with will it make my skin extra oily or nothing happen?

I really wouldnt recomend it. If you do though, keep it away from the most oily parts of your face- or just put it on big acne spots. But if you really want to try it, wash your face really well afterwards.

pls give some home made face pack for daily skin care for oily skin?

admin — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 14:50:36 +0000

1) Take egg white and apply to your face, after it dries wash your face with basin flour. ( note:- do not apply this face pack around your eyes).

2) Take 2 teaspoon of Multani mitti(Fuller’s earth), 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric powder (natural antibiotic) and add rose water(Available in any store) enough to make a thin paste. This facepack works like a magic and is used to cleanse and tone the skin while soaking up excess oil from the face.

3) Take 2 teaspoons of mint juice, 2 drops of peppermint extracts and 2 teaspoons of cucumber extracts. Mix all the ingredients well.Apply it on your face and leave the pack for 15 minutes and allow it to dry. Wash the pack with luke warm water.

What is the best way to clean oily skin?

admin — Sat, 14 Aug 2010 13:40:59 +0000

Lately my skin has been extremely oily. I wash my face three times a day and use blotting sheets but it doesn’t seem to help. I literally look greasy all the time and it’s grossing me out. Anybody have any good suggestions?

Don’t worry!
It takes a week for improvement and a month to have a total transformation.
Wash your face 3 times a day (like normally) with cool refreshing water. Oil hates cold water :]
Use a facial scrub or cleanser just for blemishes or blackheads or just for oily skin.
Make sure it is OIL-FREE and it won’t let you have clogged pores.
Salicylic acid dries out the skin so that’s when you bring in the OIL-FREE moisturizer.

I use Clinique Gel Creme. Totally refreshing and cool! I absolutely love it :]
Try not to sweat a lot. It’s summer so bring in a fan eat lots of fruit and veggies.
Exercise, that’s probably the problem for your skin.
Once a week at your local gym?
Keep doing this and you will see improvement :]

Home remedy:
BE CAREFUL!
Freshly squeeze a lemon or lime into a bowl. (Not on your face it would probably go onto your eyes.
Wash your hands thoroughly and dip them into the bowl and rub it on your face.
Be careful not to hit your eyes tho O_o <— my eyeeeee!!
Then take the left over lemon slice and rub it onto the oiliest part if your face like either nose or chin.
Rinse!

Hoped this helped and good luck :]

What is the best kind of foundation for oily/african american skin?

admin — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 17:19:57 +0000

I am going to start wearing liquid/mineral foundation and I have oily skin and I am african american. They have so many choices at the store Im not sure which one to choose…I see that l’oreal and milani has a lot of choices for my skin type, but what is the best one out of all choices for my skin type?

The one I think is the best no matter the skin is Makeup Forever HD. This stuff looks great and is used by most pros, it also makes your skin look great in pictures. If you skin has oil they make sure you end with a powder to dry up the oil in your skin and the oil in the foundation. The best way to put powder on is to use a sponge and push on the skin with light pressure and peel it up starting on one side. You can more it fast like that and will get a great smooth look. This is how the pros do it.

What is the best drugstore foundation for oily skin?

admin — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 07:22:49 +0000

I have oily skin. I don’t have severe acne or anything but I do have some scars and I do breakout sometimes.
So I want to try a new foundation and I’m on the search for the best drugstore foundation for my skin type.

Any suggestions? Good/bad experiences with certain drugstore foundations?
I would like for those who have oily/acne-prone skin types to respond so that I could relate to them.

Thanks
PS: Any other foundations than Revlon Colourstay please..cause I’ve already tried that one.

L’oreal Matte Mouse is an amazing drugstore foundation for your skin type (: Flawless coverage and matte finish (great for oily skin) and lasts for a long time.
Dont buy ANY collection 2000 foundations they are a complete waste of money, illuminate dry flakes on my skin (and i have verrrrry oily skin) and last a few hours or less.
Also I really dont recommend rimmel lasting finish its awful, lasts no more than a hour or two and cover nothing! And doesnt help my oilyness at all!
I also tried l’oreal true match and it sucked, like melted off my face and it illuminated all my oilyness!
Hope I helped and good luck finding the right foundation!
I know you said drugstore, but I just wanted to quickly add that if your prepared to invest in a highend foundation clinique has some AMAZING foundations for your skintype. Trust me (:
