foundation help!!

I need some advice! I have oily combo skin mostly oily. I have tried setting spray, primers I CANNOTTTT find foundation that doesn't move after 3 hours. it not only moves, but it goes into every crease which makes me look much older and it shows all my texture on my skin. I AM LOST. i just want to find some foundation that will stay on my face and actually still look good!!! it looks great right when i put it on and it looks like crap after just a few hours. if i blow my nose my makeup comes right off!! or even if a finger or anything touches my face.  DOES ANYONE HAVE ADVICE.this has been a struggle for my entire life to this day .
tell my any tips, products whatever. thanks so much!! I prefer vegan cruelty free products. I have a lot of scars i try to cover too. I have asked people at sephora, but no good results. I just want a good face Smiley Sad  i liked the rhianna matte one but may foundations seem to turn orange after an hour. 

Re: foundation help!!

interesting. i only bought those things and all of those because i went in to sephora and they told me to get all those things :/. that stinks! thanks for the advice bc i knew nothing about any of that! thankssss!

Re: foundation help!!

Have you tried the Fenty foundation or Mac Studio Fix Fluid or Studio Fix powder foundation? I know sephora doesn't have MAC in stores but I'd ask for samples of matte high coverage long wearing foundations to try. Also it seems counter-intuitive for oily skin but making sure you moisturize before applying your makeup can help keep your skin from overproducing oil and breaking down your makeup. 

 

Re: foundation help!!

yes i loved the way fenty looked on me but after 1-2 hours it was soo orange! i haven't tried the others. thats a great idea, samples. i buy a lot from ulta and ends up being a waste of money. thanks!

@elaine1991  Are you using any primer? I use Tatcha The Silk Canvas Protective Primer 0.7 oz/ 20 g

snd I find it really helps keep my foundation put. I am really bad for rubbing my eyes and touching my face all day and since I switched to this primer it really helped. I also love GIORGIO ARMANI BEAUTY - Luminous Silk Foundation

it looks really go on and with a primer it stays put all day. 

Re: foundation help!!

yes! i have 3 diff primers i go bk and forth with on. one at a time not all at once of course. i have not tried this primer. i will def look into this one! thank you! also will be seeing about the foundation to try it!
