Oily skin help!

What are all you ladies with oily skin doing or did on wedding day to control the oil? I don't want my makeup to come off - will powder be enough?

I'm a make up fanatic but have oily skin as well. I would suggest to use a primer and a setting powder during the wedding day...

And on regular days believe it or not a dab of milk of magnesia works great in blocking out the oil. HTH!

Also Evian sells a face mist spray in pocket size this will keep you looking fresh all day

Maybe try seeing a derm and get a prescription vitamin A cream. That may help :)

i would start with a primer, followed by a foundation then a powder to set the make up and then use finishing powder. i highly recommend smashbox photo finish- amazing :)

i'm a make up junkie and have oily skin so let me know if you have any questions!!!

2nd on the Milk of Magnesia. Works REALLY well to keep the oilies at bay.

I also found an oil-controlling moisturizer by Boots at Target that does a nice job. Not sure if they still sell it.

Thanks ladies, ill prolly get the blotting sheets cos I don't wanna look caky if I keep applying the powder & afraid makeup will start coming off. Will def try the milk of magnesia - where can I buy it?
