Full Coverage Foundations For The Party Girl With Oily Skin
By Shammi Mondal
If you have oily skin, you know the math. You apply a foundation, go to meet your friends and half an hour later when you squeeze in to take a mirror selfie, you figure that your T-zone looks greasy. Some of the foundation around your eyes has settled in the fine lines and there’s a cakey looking patch on your cheek.
We agree, this can feel annoying, but don’t worry there is a ‘smudge-proof’ solution to this conundrum. If you find the formula that works for your skin type, does not crease and adheres to your skin despite the oiliness, you’re pretty much sorted.
