Question

if you have a good oil fixer for the day please help. my face gets so oily at school!

Answer 1

I use mineral loose powder. It keeps my face from getting oily all day long. Just make sure you blend it in well.  

Answer 2

I use mineral powder.  

Answer 3

mineral base powder

Answer 4

mineral makeup. I own some and it doesn't even feel like it's there, it isn't oily or it doesn't come off after 10 minutes of wearing it. Avon carries it.

Answer 5

oo same problem. if you use foundation, use a powder instead of the liquid. and then i use these portable oil absorbing wipes from clean and clear. i just stuff them in my bag and go to the bathroom to use when i feel my face is sweaty or oily and gross. and it doesn't smudge makeup!

Answer 6

you should try this product called magiX face perfector from avon - it banishes shine for up to 10 hours and its really good for your skin - you could use that and then mineral make up: check them out at: http://www.youravon.com/mdelgado - they're cheap and really work

Answer 7

Bare escentuals.  It's a powder which you brush onto your skin and use like a foundation.  It's a faff and you'll need to practice with it to get the hang of it but it will absorb oil and because it's a powder won't add oil or liquid to your skin.

Alternatively take a look at boots etc and try to find a mattifying make up base whcih will absorb oil.

Use oil free makeup and finish with a light dudting of powder.

If you do find yourself getting oily get some toilet paper and seperate the two sheets.  Press one sheet over your oily bits.  It will absorb the oil without damaging your make up and is a lot cheaper than the oil absorbing papers you can buy.
