Matte foundations are ideal for oily skin, helping control shine and create a smooth, long-lasting base. Look for lightweight, long-wear or non-comedogenic (non-pore clogging) formulas that balance oil without weighing down skin.
Powder foundation, like the Laura Mercier powder foundation, can work well for oily skin, as it helps absorb excess oil and reduce shine throughout the day. Plus, it’s ideal for quick touch-ups.
Start with well-prepped skin and apply foundation in thin layers. Using a setting powder in oil-prone areas can help control shine and keep your base looking fresh for longer.
