The 10 BEST Makeup Products For Oily Skin

As an oily girl myself, I completely sympathize with those of you who struggle to find the right makeup products for your greasy skin. Sure, being dewy is nice, but being oily is a completely different story. Our overactive oil glands create the perfect environment for bacteria growth – a.k.a, unwanted acne, and in addition to that, our makeup needs to be blotted like 200 times a day. It’s a tough life out here for an oily girl, which is why we’ve put together some of the best makeup products for oily skin! Of course, these products wont solve your oil problems, but they will definitely help!

1) L’Oreal Infallible Pro Matte Foundation

This foundation applies light, lasts long, and creates a total matte finish so that you won’t have to worry about looking oily throughout the day! Of course, your oil will still creep through but it takes a lot longer then a normal foundation would!

2) Smashbox Iconic Photo Finish Primer

If you’re looking for a primer to help make your foundation last, then Smashbox has one of the bests! Their photo finish primer is oil free, provides no flashback with pictures, and reduces the look of your pores!

3) Tarte Shape Tape Concealer

Okay, is this even a question? The Tarte shape tape has been raved about by so many beauty bloggers, and with good reason. The concealer works well on all skin types, is full coverage, and doesn’t set into your fine lines. It’s pricey, but totally worth it.

4) Palladio Oil Absorbing Rice Paper Blotting Sheets

If you’re an oily person, then you definitely understand the benefits of blotting paper. Although it’s a pain in the ass to blot throughout the day, it’s absolutely crucial in keeping your makeup together! These papers are awesome because they’re super cheap, and keep your makeup perfectly in tact while absorbing the oil!

5) Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray

Chances are if you’re oily, you have problems keeping your makeup on throughout the night. However, with this setting spray you don’t have to worry about that! The all nighter makes that makeup stick so that you don’t have to re-apply a trillion times.

 


6) Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder

Having oily skin requires a little extra work, which is what translucent powder is here for. This powder is made to be worn over your foundation to help “lock in” your makeup! If you want a matte finish, the Laura Mercier powder works really well.


7) Nars Smudge Proof Eye Primer

Yes, your eyelids can be oily too. If you really want to make that eyeshadow stick, then try out this Nars smudge proof eye primer! Apply your eyeshadow after a coat of this and you will see a big difference in your shadows pigmentation, and wear time!

8) No. 7 Match Made Bronzer

Not only is this bronzer from the drugstore, but it offers a super natural matte finish that will last on top of your skin all day! This is definitely one of the best makeup products for oily skin!

9) Milani Rose Powder Blush

This flattering blush lasts all day long, and adds some shimmer to your (hopefully) already matte look! Although shimmer may sound scary to someone with oily skin, it’s important that your makeup isn’t entirely matte, so that your skin has some life to it!

10) KAT VON D Tattoo Liner

If you’re looking for an eyeliner that will last on top of your greasy skin, then try out the Kat Von D tattoo eyeliner! This long lasting liquid liner is waterproof, melt free, crack free, and fade resistant!
