I then use either blot powder or translucent powder (not heavily, because I hate that visible powder look) and I still need to blot by the time I get to the office. It's ridiculous. I'm 45. When is this going to stop?!

 

My fave MUA taught me to not brush blot powder on but instead pack it against my skin, if that makes sense. It's still not visible, but it gets more in there. I still go through gazillions of blotting sheets.

 

If I had drier skin, I'd probably like dewy more. As it is, it provokes a WTF - ALREADY?! response.

 

Absolutely - I do it all the time. When a want a matter or longer lasting look, I use Matchmaster.

 

I do the same. I apply blush and MSF before setting powder. It also helps them adhere.

I don't like the matte powdered look either; I go for a more natural powdered look (if that makes sense). Even at that, I'll look 'dewy' (nicer word than oily) again in the t-zone and on my upper cheeks within an hour with F&B.

AudreyC :) I have the same problem as you. I'm constantly oily. I've been playing around with various primers like the Prep + Prime Natural Radiance, NARS's Oil Free Pore Refining Primer, Estee Lauder's Matte Perfecting Primer and Bare Escentuals Primer (the normal one, not oil controlling). These are all pretty good at getting me one step closer to being less oily and requiring less blotting sheets.

Another thing that has worked very well for me is the Origins Checks & Balances cleanser. It reduces my oiliness like no other skin cleanser.

I get what you mean by the too matte look vs. natural powdered look. A too matte finish makes me look so dull and moody :) 

^^Another good primer for oily skin is Hourglass..ok the rest of the name left me. Sorry 50 minute sleep due to stalking the MAC site. I'm trying thisprimer now with different products. I bought the smaller size at Sephora. It somes out about the same price. I have tried so many primers in all price ranges and have found nothing that works well with my oily skin.

Chanel discontinued the two lightest shades of their Mat Lum foundation and the lightest was a great match for me. So now I'm giving Dior fusion a go. The lightest is a good match, just trying to see what sunscreen and such that will wear well with it for me. I've been mixing it with a Kevin Aucoin foundation and getting good coverage but need a sunscreen.

I haven't used MAC's Studio Moisture Fix spf 15. I've heard its good for oily skin.

Also MAC needs to come out with some paler shades in their foundations. They have such a massive selection but somehow miss the mark in the pale shades.

Ok, I just popped on here and saw this. So if it has nothing to do with what you guys were talking about please ignore, no sleep + no brain function.

If I remember correctly from seeing a face chart Embrace Me lip pencil will come back again next spring, for anyone who missed out or needs a BU.

Ow no of course it could become permanent after I bought 3 BU's...

I swear they look like the shades from the 2009 mes release.

Oh well - one less thing we have to worry about!

Maybe it's coming out with the Archie's Girls collection?

Will have to back up Embrace Me l/l when it comes out next year and need to use my current one right now.

Temptalia has the sneak peak photos of the Marilyn Monroe Collection in box packaging!

EDIT://

I meant to post this in the Marilyn Monroe thread. Sorry.

Coming out again?? I love that lip liner and use it alot with all my pink lipsticks (and sometimes purple and red) and brought a backup with Beth Ditto, if they bring it out again, they should just make it Perm!

If I can get my hands on the neutral one, I'll get it.

Oh, I loved these in theory, the good ole 4 for one price MES but in reality was disappointed by the lack of pigmentation.  On the other hand, the MES quality seems to be on the up and up, so maybe I will give them a chance?

* I put my money on LaP to be the next hyped Spring lippie

I am pleasantly perplexed and pondering what is meant by that?  I am picturing the baroque madonna paintings with the lit from above look and wondering if that is what is meant?  Of course if it is strobe cream, I can't wear that under foundation or it will make everything slide right off.  Unless it is some kind of new formulation...

With the amount of hot pink lippies this year.. YES Embrace Me needs to be perm. 

I just picked up Embrace Me at one of my local CCOs! So excited to have it with my bright lippies!

Gosh I need another Embrace me!!! I hope we see it again soon.

I've always had terribly oily skin, until I tried spironolactone, a prescription med. It has helped me so much, that I want to recommended it to everyone who has oily skin. I wish I would have tried it YEARS ago. It lowers the hormones responsible for the oil, plus I found it even helped my mood.

Seriously... I would suggest looking into it at least. Amazing.

Here are some reviews...

Just thought I'd share, because I struggled for far too long, until I found this.

'Just wanted to properly post this here: 'Was talking to my MA today about how we love the pressed pigments and he told me there's a rumor going around that they'll be back for spring/summer 2013. 

Here's hoping they'll come in summery colors as well as skin tones this time!

Awesome =) i went looking for mine the other day and I cant find it anywhere. I was so bummed, because I could have bought a BU when beth ditto came out..

In need  of news about upcoming collections, it seems we know very little or nothing at all about this year end collection.

I still have a BNIB one from Iris Apfel. I bought it to use it with l/s like Something New. But I never really wear those colors, so it's still unused. I'm thinking about selling it, and also my bright lipsticks like Something New, Toxic Tale... 

I think I'm going to get Embrace the next time it comes out. I had always been wondering if I need it and now I think I'd like to have it. 

Or Plumage in ED?

I have oily skin too! I find that Urban Decay Oil Slick has been doing wonders for keeping me from getting oily. It gives me dewy skin without the grease.
