Foundation for Oily Skin!

Christy, on April 9, 2018 at 9:24 AM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 6

So I'm a makeup enthusiast. I have been doing makeup for many years now and one of those people no matter what you'll see with some type of makeup on (makes me feel alive).

I wanted from the beginning to do my own makeup for the wedding. Now that almost at the 30 day countdown and stressed I thought I'd do a makeup trial just to see if I could take one less stress off me for day of. The venue we are having the reception at has a spa on site and where some of my girls are getting their makeup done so I went there. I spent $90 on this trial and it was AWFUL!

This lady claimed to do makeup on stars and couldn't even figure out how to o my winged eyeliner!! I had to tell her what brush to use. I was very very displeased and decided to just go with my original decision to do the makeup myself.

I initially bought Laura Mercier Flawless Fusion a couple months ago and have been using it. It's a good foundation for my skin but wanted any other opinions on other foundations for a flawless finish for oily skin! I prime and moisturize my face before applying foundation and set with Laura Mercier translucent powder.

Suggestions? Thank you Smiley smile

    I have oily skin and I've actually found that I like the l'oreal infallible foundation the best!

    I just got the Laura mercier foundation in an Influenster box and it’s been great so far!
    My favorite and the one I always recomemd is estee lauder double wear. It’s literally 24 hour, it’s amazing. I have super oily skin and it stays on all day. They have one with no SPF in it now so there will be no flashback in photos! Whatever you choose just make sure there’s no SPF in it.
    im also debating if I should do my own make up because I know I do it well and I have mostly high end make up but I’m debating if it’s worth the stress.
    anytime I’ve gotten my make up done professional I it’s been awful so I 100% know where you’re coming from.

    I love Tarte's new matte foundation. It works wonders for hiding blemishes and for oily skin. It stays on all day and I don't have to worry about touch-ups, even after going to the gym.

    I love MUFE's Mat Velvet. Their powder foundation is also great if you're into that, but for a wedding liquid is probably better anyway.
