If you have oily skin, choosing the right foundation can be difficult. And of course, oily skin can cause many problems. Especially when it comes to makeup. Few people will be pleased that makeup spreads on their face. But I hasten to please you! Perhaps it's the wrong foundation. The ideal foundation for oily skin will serve as a good base for makeup and protect you from many problems in the future. Do you have shiny skin but love a matte nude glow? Then you just need a foundation for your skin type. However, shiny skin is only a small part of the problem. Excess sebum
(sebum) can lead to
acne
.
On the surface of the skin there are sebaceous glands
that produce sebum.
Sebum protects the skin from mechanical damage and prevents moisture from evaporating from the surface of the skin. In addition, sebum protects the skin from sun damage
.
But excess sebum can be a real disaster. It traps dead epithelial cells
and
clogs pores
.
The result is frequent acne
or
unsightly blackheads
.
A good foundation for oily skin will help you forget about these problems. Many foundations contain ingredients that help reduce sebum production: bentonite clay
,
seaweed
, and even
non-comedogenic oils
.
With oily skin, you need to find the perfect balance. Your skin should be well moisturized, but not so moisturized that your makeup starts to smear. So, how do you find a foundation for oily skin that will control sebum and look natural? The foundations on this list are the result of personal experience. Many of these foundations for oily skin look great in both cool winter weather and hot summer days. I hope this article will help you make the right choice. Leave your tips in the comments.

Giorgio Armani Beauty Power Fabric
- This new foundation from Giorgio Armani is the perfect complement to the iconic
Luminous Silk
. The new foundation is created specifically for oily skin. The main advantage of Power Fabric is a very durable base that looks natural and does not sink into pores. Another plus of the new foundation is the SPF factor. Today, more and more cosmetics manufacturers are adding sun protection. Not surprisingly, solar radiation is one of the main causes of skin aging. Free radicals penetrate the skin, destroying the collagen layer. Another reason to choose this wonderful foundation for oily skin.
VERDICT:
An excellent addition to the iconic Giorgio Armani foundation line.

Matte foundation L'Oreal Paris Infallible Matte
is another great foundation for oily skin. It gives the skin a matte finish, and you don't have to worry about your skin becoming shiny. The manufacturer promises that the foundation will last 24 hours. And I must admit, the promises turned out to be true. This is truly an extremely long-lasting foundation, even if your skin produces a lot of sebum on hot summer days. However, the skin looks natural. The foundation applies in an even and neat layer, hiding serious imperfections, and does not sink into pores or fine wrinkles. However, I recommend this foundation only for girls with very oily skin or for summer, when the skin produces a lot of sebum. I advise girls with fair skin to choose the shade ivory.
VERDICT:
A good foundation for very oily skin or for hot summer days.

Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-In-Place
is another foundation for oily skin that promises incredible longevity.
It’s difficult to say what mysterious technologies Estee Lauder used, but the foundation is incredibly durable. It doesn't stain clothes ( a common problem with foundations
) and lasts all day. And it doesn’t matter what the weather is like outside. This foundation has proven itself to be the most long-lasting on our list. The foundation applies in a fairly thin layer, which covers skin imperfections well, and the texture looks natural. In addition, it perfectly evens out skin tone.
VERDICT:
foundation for oily skin with a natural texture that is completely worth the money.
