One usually ends up investing a lot on all the cosmetics and oil free face washes. However, it can easily be taken care of with some effective home remedies if done regularly and properly.

Potato juice

Make Up Tips for Oily Skin

Make Up Tips for Oily Skin

  • Primer was actually made for oily skins. It is a must thing before makeup. Find a suitable primer for your skin from a local drugstore of any brand and always apply it before those tons of layers of foundation, so that the pores don’t get clogged and your skin stays oil free.
  • Consider using a matte foundation since the oil on your skin is enough to bring out the glow. Opt for powder-based foundations as these don’t melt off and do not need several touchups. Try using stick foundations as they set really well and work amazingly for oily skins. You should totally avoid using liquid foundations if you have a choice, because they make your skin oilier than usual.
  • Powder is your best friend if you have an oily skin. Keep the powder with you all the time. If you think your pigmented powder looks fake then opt for translucent ones or the mineral ones. Lose powder is the best for an oily skin. It absorbs the excess oil and helps your makeup stay longer than usual.
  • Use a matte blush for oily skin. Mousse and all the other types are most likely to melt off if you have an oily skin. Consider using powder blushes as they get blended well. Try not to go for the shimmery ones on normal days because your skin will already be glowing because of the oil.
  • Opt for mineral makeup. It is little costly but totally worth it. The organic content fights the oil and the bacteria. It keeps the oil away giving a matte look. You don’t even need a sunscreen if you apply mineral makeup.
  • Invest into a good setting spray. Look for options and choose the one with a matte finish. This gives a final matte finish to your makeup and the oil doesn’t appear for a good 10 hours at least. It works perfectly for an oily skin. Find More :  Beauty Tips
