I have oily face. Should I stop applying foundation? ?

Question

The reason why I apply powder is just to eliminated some pimples and my face color to a nice tone color(even out my skin color). I use bare natural foundation. When ever its hot, my skin face gets oily and it feels heavy. What do you recommend for me to do about this problem?

Answer 1

keep doing what your already doing, just use a little bit less makeup. when you wake up in the morning wash you face. you can buy a face cleanser, cleansing pads, or just take a washcloth and put some hand or body soap on it and wash away all the oil and dirt. eventualy that will reduce the pimples and even out your skin tone so that you wont have to wear make up as often. (if you are gonna use the washcloth, then DONT scrub too hard. that will damage and dry out your skin causeing it you burn)

Answer 2

Apply less makeup? I mean, with any foundation (creme, liquid, powder, anything) if your skin gets sweaty or hot the makeup will end up feeling more noticeable. If you apply a thin layer then it is less likely to happen.

Using a primer also help as it can help reduce the oil that you get on your face.

It could also be your foundation, as some brands will make your skin feel different depending on it's ingredients. Like... I tried one brand and it both looked and felt cakey and it burned when I would get flushed or a bit sweaty. And then another I tried just made my skin burn when I would only get flushed, and CAUSED my face to sweat and get oily.
