Foundations: Buy that
suit oily skin.
Always choose a full-coverage matte foundation as it is more
durable when compared to light or medium coverage
foundations.
Do not use your fingers to apply foundation instead use a
make-up sponge as fingers can transfer more oil to your
face.
Always pick a foundation that is one shade lighter than your
skin tone.
Powder:
Apply pressed powder after applying the foundation, this
will reduce the greasy look and lend your face a fresh look.
Do not use loose powder as it does not offer as much
coverage as pressed powder does.
Use powders that offer full-coverage.
Use matte variety pressed powder as it
is exclusively designed for oily skin.
You should lightly press the powder into your face rather
than smoothing it over. Smothering the powder on your face
can weaken the foundation. Keep applying pressed
powder every two hours; this will help your skin to fight
oil all through the day.
Blush:
Choosing a blush is not as difficult as choosing a
foundation or powder. When you have chosen the right type of
foundation and powder, you can settle in for any type of
powder blush.
Choose a pressed powder blush.
Do not use cream and liquid blushes,
as they can accentuate the greasiness. Always apply blush
with a make-up brush. Do not use your fingers or a
powder puff to apply blush. Blush should be a shade
lighter than the shade you wish to realize, this will reduce
the darkening of the skin due to oiliness.
Eye makeup:
Making up the eye is indeed a complicated job for women with
oily skin. Lines and creases form in the fold of the eyelid
a few hours after applying eye liner and shadow.
-
Remember to apply
foundation and pressed powder to your eyelids before you
apply eye make-up.
-
Use pressed powder
eye shadows.
-
Do not use eye
shadows in cream or liquid forms.
-
Do not use a liquid
eye liner as it will smudge easily.
-
Use an eye pencil
after applying the liner; apply some shadow on top of it
to lock the color.
