Ok i have oily skin, and i sometimes break out bad. so i use this face wash my docotor gave me. that sometimes drys out my skin.. but anyway i always wear makeup, i like have to. even if im just sittin around the house. its just my natural rutien. what i usually use is foundation, powder, then i put on eye liner, then eye shawdow(if i wear it) then mascara. but after awhile my makeup always seems to mess up, any suggjestions on which products to use, or tips on how i should do it. anything would be greatly apprctiated.

set your makeup with some powder, once youre done applying it all.or, apply a primer. it helps makeup stay on longer.

I have the same problem! I also have oily skin and always want to use makeup, even if I don't go out! But what I tend to do is was my face before I put on my foundation (I use liquid with a powder on top) and then use loose powder to suck up and oil throughout the day. Another good thing to use is foundation primer, this usually helps my makeup stay on throughout the day. I used to use Smashbox foundation primer, but it got to expensive so I switched to Avon Magix and believe me, it works! It's also really cheap 10 dollars compared to fifty. Hope this helps!
