Have you ever experienced looking in the mirror and thought “My skin looks very oily, especially around my T zone”, If you have, then you probably have oily skin and believe me, having oily skin can really put a dent on your makeup routine but don’t worry, you are not alone, I know how it feels! And the sad thing is, because we have oily skin the foundations tends to break down faster than having normal to combination skin. When this happens your foundation will only last 3-4 hours instead of lasting for 6-8 hours. Remember the key to having a flawless skin when you have oily skin is by using the right foundation. Now I’m personally not a huge fan of spending tons of money on high end foundations. So let me tell you a secret on how to keep a flawless skin without breaking the bank. Read on to see some foundations that are preferable for oily skin ( ALL UNDER 20$)
