What is the best drugstore foundation for oily skin?

Posted in skin types  by admin

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 (:

    Covergirl has a foundation called Clean Makeup and it comes in three types: Sensitive Skin, oily skin, and normal skin. I use the sensitive skin one at the moment and I like it alot! You could take a crack at using the one for oily skin. =)

    Maybelline Superstay 24Hr Foundation is supposed to be good. As well as Dream Matte Mouse.

    bareminerals matte formula. it’s a dream. :]

    however, if your acne isn’t severe, maybe don’t use a foundation. i found that when i stopped using foundation, i stopped breaking out. just use a light concealer and a mattifying powder, and wash your face at least twice a day. :]

    I’m using covergirl clean oil free and its really good, but I would say the coverage is medium. I also use their pressed powder and I find that it doesnt work that well, i think I shall invest in mac’s translucent powder though, I hear its the best.
