Oily skin is not a curse. You too can achieve a youthful sparkle and glow with the use of the right products where it counts. Oily skin is a boon when you mature or if you have a lot of exposure to extreme weather elements. The following 3 steps will create flawless skin for the oily complexion.  

1. Start with a primer to even out your complexion. Then, use a light, liquid foundation or tint sparingly over your face. Follow this with a translucent powder.

The greatest concern here is that colored powders tend to streak on oily skin. That means that you must avoid powdering the tops of your cheekbones. Also stay away from anything other than a liquid foundation. The cream and powder based ones will smudge and discolor during the day when they mix with your skin’s natural oils giving a muddy murk rather than a dewy glow. 

1. For a powder shimmer, after your foundation, use a fan brush to ever so lightly sweep a dusting on the top of your cheekbones.   

1. To maintain a soft and fresh complexion through the day, carry blotting papers with you. These alone will provide the touch up you need for a flawless complexion.
