Best Drugstore Foundation for Oily Skin

I've always struggled with oily skin in my teens up to adulthood. My foundation would always become a greasy, separated mess by noon! I've tried A LOT of foundations - both high end and drugstore and here are my favourites for drugstore foundations for oily skin:
Picture
#1 Favorite is the Covergirl Outlast 3 in 1. I've gone through 7 bottles of this miraculous formula. It's a primer, foundation, and concealer in one!

Pros:
- best formula I've found to control oily skin across the board
- great coverage, buildable
- comes with a blue pump for ease of product dispensing
- no weird smell - you know, those ones that smell like a chemical-soaked-old-lady perfume kind of smell...
- cheap. It's like $12 at Superstore.

Cons:
- horrible range of colors. The only color that I could fine that has a yellow undertone in it is medium beige (I'm between an NC20- 25). Everything else is too pink/warm, so I have to mix it with other shades from other brands.
- the pump doesn't reach the bottom of the glass bottle so I have to dig product out with a thing handle brush or q-tip.
- not great for dry or flaky skin. If you are a dry/dry-normal skin, stay away from this product because it will look cakey on your type of skin.
- it's almost TOO matte which doesn't look like real skin if you layer it too much.

#3 is the Revlon Colorstay for combination to oily skin. I had to try it after reading countless reviews on it.

Pros:
- controls oil very well
- good range of colors

Cons:
- actually kind of expensive for a drugstore foundation at about $20 at Rexall and Superstore.
- a little bit more of a chalkier finish? Am I the only one?
- suuuuper minimal foundation separation
Conclusion: My review is based on my own experience and my own oily skin. These made it because I enjoy the formula.

​If you're not a drugstore person, I recommend picking up the Estée Lauder double wear.

I really like the Covergirl  formula over the more expensive ones and I'll mix it with other shades to go up or down depending on my tan throughout the year. I hope this helped!

Have you tried something that you absolutely love for oily skin?

The skin all over withstands a considerable measure of manhandle every single day essentially on the grounds that it is presented to such a large number of various components that can hurt our skin. A legitimate facial healthy skin treatment will lessen lines, wrinkles and drooping skin.

I have oily skin which is why I find it hard to look for a foundation that would work well with my skin. Most of the foundations I have used always end up leaving more oil into my skin. Because of that, I have to put thick layers of powder into my face just so it would not get oily along the day. I suggest you try out the Fit Me collection of Maybelline because it has been my savior so far. It really conceals the oiliness of my face and I get to have a flawless face once I blend the foundation into my skin.

I also have the Fit Me by Maybelline! It is also one of my top, but I think the Revlon Colorstay and Covergirl Outlast 3n1 out performs Fit Me by a long shot. Just my opinion though - my skin is really oily!

One of the most common ways by which you could get fuller looking breasts is by using the various breast enhancement creams available in the market. The biggest advantage of using this method is that it will not require you to go under the knife. This method is considered as quite safe, easy to apply, effective and less costly, as compared to other surgical operations.

Good question. Which treatment for vitiligo DOES work? Which one should you pursue? There are so many that it can make a man or woman's head spin! Keep reading my friend. I'll try to clear it up for you!

That product used to be my holy grail foundation. It has a good oil control, but I don't like its limited range of shades. For the price, I must say that it has a good performance. The coverage is medium to full, depending on how you build it up. But you should be careful in building it up since it has a tendency to look dry if you put too much product. It has a matte finish so I suggest you to moisturize your skin well before applying it.
