Foundation help for oily sensitive skin

I have oily and sensitive skin. I also have light cool olive skin. Do you have any foundation recommendations that would be a good match for me?

Re: Foundation help for oily sensitive skin

Hi! I worked for Sephora for a bit (not currently!), been doing makeup for years, and I have combo skin - when im dry im dry, when i'm oily, i'm OILY! Best for oily OILY skin in my opinion would be something with a semi matte/sheer glowy type finish to not accentuate any oil buildup that may accumulate throughout the day, and give you the ability to use your setting powders without over mattifying your face . Also - something that isn't incredibly thick that it will clog up your pores, but still gives you coverage. In my opinion - I would recommend MAC Cosmetics Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15  or NARS Sheer Glow Foundation  as a medium to full coverage, but if you're looking for a skin tint type, I would go with Beautyblender 12-Hour Always on Radiant Skin Tint with Hyaluronic Acid & Niacinamide Medium 1   I wouldn't go with a matte personally, using matte finishes on oily skin can easily lead to breakage in your makeup and/or cake face! LOL! Less is more with oily skin
