I recently bought a foundation for oily / combined skin: ever matte by Clarins, and honest to God I can sweat like a ho in a church but after a whole shift the foundation is still there lmao, I just have to put a bit of powder to matify, I use it and sometimes I use Estee Lauder double wear, I find it heavier than Ever Matte tho so it's better for me to use it in winter, these products are life savers :3
Estee Lauder is the best high end foundation. Lasts forever and the coverage is amazing and NO BREAKOUTS. OMG my HG foundation. I used to purchase 2 foundations to get the right match and with Estee Lauder I found a right match for my skin and I'm loving it.
Same here. I'm extremely oily and Estee Lauder Double Wear is my holy grail foundation. It really lasts ALL day. RevlonColorstay is very similar but the shades are kinda tricky.
missuncontrolled I used to wear Revlon Colorstay but they stopped selling my shade in Canada and it was only available in the states. I had to buy 2 different bottles of foundation to mix them together to get the right shade or wear a darker shade. I got fed up and went somewhere else and I'm glad I did. Estee Lauder is the best even though it's pricer but hey, it's worth buying Estee Lauder versus buying 2 bottles of foundation and trying to find the rite match. EL is my HG. I'm not changing them unless they stop making my shade. Then i'll be pissed. LOL
Love model in a bottle but lost it and thought it was discontinued. Then I've seen it repackaged and I've got oily skin all my life and I'm 60! Love that stuff it set your makeup all day long
I love pretty much all the products you mentioned. I have extremely oily skin as well. I also love the Makeup Forever matte finish primer leaves a tacky finish to apply makeup to. And my FAVORITE setting spray is Ben Nye Final Seal. Has a mint scent is also alcohol based clearly meant for stage makeup. But it lasts!!! DO NOT touch or smudge face until completely dried I learned the hard way because it will smudge the foundation and set that way there is no fixing it. It's amazing!!!!
I love that I stumbled upon your page the other day. Besides that when you live in the US, we tend to love love love accents lol lol but I am have to say that I am beyond grateful for someone to help steer me in the right direction for oily skin. It has been the bane of my existence, and it has only been more recently that I have started to really baby my skin the way it deserves. Thank you!!!!
My favorite oily skin product is the Mally Evercolor Poreless Face Defender. It's a clear, mattifying, setting gel that is used in place of powder. It's amazing and I've probably gone through 10.
I like it cosmetics. All of their products. I have roseacia and oily skin. Their foundations cover the redness and stay put on my oily skin. And like you I love the bye bye pores powder. So glad it comes in a pressed powder now. For me, the loose powder was hard to control and I got it everywhere, plus you can put it in your purse for touch ups.
I'm oily skin as well and I love Estee Lauder double wear and Mac studio fix and for drugstore the best one I say loreal infallible pro matte. best primer I say Becca and setting spray Gerard cosmetics slay all-day. oh and facial spray Mario badescu rose water. these keep me matte all-day even in hot humid weather.
Nikkia, I'm pretty new to your channel and I'm impressed. It's so wonderful to have a professional makeup artist do reviews and tutorials on products for oily skin that you've done all the leg work on. Therefore, we're not afraid of trying theses products!! Your lips are absolutely to die for and the rest of your makeup is flawless and beautiful!!! Keep up the great work and look forward to binge watching your videos!! Thanks and keep them coming! 😉
I have super oily skin and urban decay de slick makeup setting spray is amazing. it works sooo well, and lasts me so long. if you haven't tried it you really should, it lasts hours and I've never felt my skin and makeup stay oil free so long.
Thank you so much for the mascara tip! My mascara started leaving nasty black marks on my eyelids about a year ago. I have tried so many different brands and they all seemed to smudge, flake or leave the same marks after a few hours. The MAC Extended Play Gigablack Lash mascara is PERFECT! I can't thank you enough! 💞
I use the Rimmel stay matte primer with Estee lauder double wear and the setting power NYX HD and omg. changed my life!!!!! thank you for your tips! please don't ever stop making videos :D
I LOVE all of your oily skin tips!! I recently bought that primer by Rimmel (at your suggestion), and you are right! It's amazing! One of my all-time favorites for eyeshadow primer is the NYX Proof It Eyeshadow Primer, it has done me very well even with my eyelids sometimes getting oily (I know, gross..) and I've bought it multiple times. Wonderful videos, sending love from Florida! :)
I love that you mention more affordable products that you genuinely use, it's good to see what you stick with because I'm forever watching you tubers wearing a different product every time and for us on a budget we can't buy everything ! Xox
I love the Comforter by lush its a shower gel and it smells amazing. The Estee Lauder Matte Primer is also really good! I love your channel, so nice to have someone who has oily skin like me. Been watching you for ages and i have never commented! i wanted to know a good oily skin care routine because i cant seem to find products to help my hormonal acne and stop me being so oily...if you could do a video of the products which help you and the step and how often that would be so amazing... Thank Nikki!!
Hi Nikkia, I also recommend the NARS eyeshadow primer for oily eyelids. Although its a bit pricey, IT IS THE BEST THING EVER!!! it stays on more than 24hrs.
PLEASE post what lipsticks you wear! You have worn the MOST beautiful nude and pinky nude in your videos and I just HAVE to know what they are! Thank you!
Love that you talk about MAC! Very few vloggers do. Such ashamed... you actually mention three of my favorite MAC products...Liquid Studio Fix, Pro Long Wear Concealer, and Painterly Paint Pot. Thanks again doll. Love your feedback for oily skin btw. Really looking forward to trying new products that you've recommend! Xoxo
I also use rimmel stay matte primer daily, and cover girl clean matte powder and using those with the urban decay de slick, it works great for my super oily skin
Hi Nikkia, I have recently discovered Airspun translucent powder made by Coty. I have really oily skin and it works great on my skin. You can use it to set your foundation or bake under the eyes. And the best thing of all its super affordable. 💖
This helps so much! I have oily skin mainly in my T-zone area and enlarged pores. I live in hot/ humid area so It's always nice to try to find some foundations and primers that help make my skin look nice.
Love the model in a bottle! I hate the spray bottle though cause it never sprays evenly so j just put it into another spray bottle. I get the sensitive formula because it has less of the strong scent!
I just got the Estée Lauder foundation and I'm wearing it right now it's sooooo beautiful omg my skin be looking flawless asf and my nose foundation don't rub off
Have you ever tried the Skindinavia setting spray? Wayne Goss highly recommends them and especially the bridal one. I will do your trick to spray my Nyx matte setting spray in my t zone, use the Mehron antiperspirant on my forehead because that is ALWAYS where I start sweating first thing after applying foundation. Then do my primer which varies. Sometimes I'll use my babyskin by maybelline which is supposed to be a dupe for the benefit poreless one. Or if it is going to be a long day I will do my KVD lock it primer. THEN I've started doing the lightly dusting powder on my t zone and THEN my foundation. I gave away my estee double wear. I think the girl matched me wrong to Ecru BUT since I got the UD all nighter foundation that has been my go to. I will still occasionally use my KVD foundation (I'm a 46 I think, it could've been a TAD darker for me tho) BUT I started mixing the KVD either with my Sephora or Elizabeth Arden foundations and it tends to do a bit better and not nearly as cakey. I tried a bottle of the UD all nighter setting spray but I think I am liking the skindinavia in bridal better. UD gets their setting spray made by Skindinavia anyway. I got both my Nyx and Skindinavia setting sprays from Amazon. Revlon Colorstay used to be the only foundation I wore but as I have gotten older it just isn't very forgiving to any of those fine lines or crepiness I have going on. Also, since 2014 I've lost 129 pounds so on top of being 49 and having those little lines coming along anyway I have some sagging skin going on as well - I call it my ugly turkey neck lol so that is NEVER a pretty look with as matte as the Revlon was on my skin. I found that the all nighter foundation was a little more forgiving.
My most re-purchased would be Revlon Colourstay for combination skin, Revlon photo ready mascara, max factor false lash effect, and Maybelline Fit Me concealer, which annoyingly is always sold out!
should try the lush dark angels facial cleanser, it's a charcoal cleanser specifically formulated for oily skin types and is amazing (bit messy but worth it) 💕
Ahh finally another oily girl! Im struggling to decide what expensive foundation to buy next? I loved Estee Lauder Double Wear but hated it at night time in photos!! Im looking for medium - full coverage and good for photos, flash and no flash. I think I'm tossing up between Stila Perfect and Correct or Too Faced Born This Way or Urban Decay All Nighter? Halppp! xx
Madisen Grace have you tried mixing it with a more dewy/luminous foundation or with beauty oil? If you mix 2 parts DW with one part dewy foundation or 1-2 drops on face oil it takes down the matte finish, but it stays longwear, not sure if this helps or not
Urban Decay All Nighter! Too face born this way is wayy to hydrating for someone with really oily skin. I have combo to dry skin and it makes my nose slightly oily...
Madisen Grace Definitely, in my experience it won't cake unless you put way too much on. You should check Thrift Thick's review on the foundation, her skin is super oily and problematic.
Fellow oily skin person here. I would go with the UD All Nighter. I've tried it myself and the pigmentation is amazing. Use a Beauty Blender for the best, non-cakey application. I wouldn't go anywhere near stuff with 'dewy', 'luminous', or 'glow' in its description; it will make oily skin look worse. Once you're done with your makeup routine and still want a bit of a glow, then use a powder highlighter with a light hand. It is possible you may have dehydrated skin in addition to oily skin (as opposed to dry, which is different). I didn't know that was a thing either, until recently. I was using a mattifying moisturizer but switched to a hydrating serum and gel moisturizer. The reason I mention this is because it's helped cut back on my oiliness a lot, which in turn helps with the appearance and staying power of my makeup. It could do the same for you :)
Marc Jacobs Remarcable!!! So expensive here in the land of oz, but it is so beautiful and full coverage for those who have many imperfections. Highly recommend for oily skin! Love this video, love what you do & thank you for all of the lives you save xxxxx
I found your wonderful channel a few months ago and it's so nice to have a beauty guru who can relate to the oily skin type. It seems like we have the exact same skin. I must be your blonde twin from Canada! lol I tired Estée Lauder double wear for the first time yesterday based on your recommendations and HOLY!!!!!! You are right on the money about this foundation. It's amazing!!!! My new favourite for sure out of ALL the foundations I have tried. So glad I found you girl!!!! Love from Canada! ❤️
I am honestly in love with your videos!! My absolute favorite is the nars all day weightless luminous foundation..changed my life! And also can't live without the guerlain parure gold powder to set my makeup..give them a try if you havent!
Just read in your bio that you're a nurse and that makes me love you even more! I'm an oily skinned Pediatric RN who neeeeeeds tips for not turning into a grease bucket by 10am. I'm very lucky to have found your channel! Additionally, if you can get your hands on Milani products, their eye shadow primer is my go-to eye shadow primer! It will last 13+ hours with no creasing!! And it's super affordable!
Savanna Robinson Im a maternity nurse myself and my skin is oily but gets flaky at the hospital and i noticed that a balancing moisturizer helps also a setting spray and also love the milani primer
I love your videos! I can totally relate because I have very oily skin and large pores! It sucks and I've struggled with finding the best foundation and for me, the best one so far I've loved is the Neutrogena oil free foundation. It has a rice protein complex in it and I stay matte forever! Keep making your videos! You are so talented and super gorgeous!
Hi. Loved the video, oily skin tips are always welcome. A few products I love for oily skin are Dr Feelgood from benefit. Smells lemony, it's a super matte primer that works well on the tzone. Dior also makes a mattifying pore filling primer that works very well. Revlon foundation for oily combination skin works just like double wear. YSL makes a lovely translucent pressed powder that won't spill or fly everywhere when using it. Paula's choice also makes a mattifying product to apply over foundation. It works very well. I hope you try some of these and enjoy 😊
I have just watched a few of your videos, one was in the suggestion box and I really enjoy your videos, it's not easy with oily skin which is the main reason why I don't wear makeup, I will definitely subscribe and try out some make ups you showed that work, it's not easy finding foundations and other makeup that feel light but with good coverage
Thankyou for another great video gorgeous girl 💗 I am a fellow oily skin gal/makeup artist & everything you mentioned is on point 👊🏼 you must try the Laura mercier translucent powder (I prefer the one in the compact) as you don't waste the product or drop it. It is AMAZE used on a damp beauty blender over concealer & brushed lightly over the face. It controls oil & gives an airbrushed finish to the skin. I also swear by benefit shy beam for a Matt highlight 💗 and loreal telescopic mascara 👌🏼💜 love your videos 💕😘
Have you ever tried the Chanel "Lumeire" Velvet? (Not sure if I wrote it correctly 😹) I have oily skin and that one works wonders for me! I'm going to try the Estee Lauder tho!
Hi! Justin wanted to pop on really quick and say a a huge thank you for your great videos! I have been searching for years for a good foundation for my oily/big pored skin! I just purchased Estee and I LOVE IT!! I've never had a foundation work so well! So thanks again! ❣❣❣
i really love your videos, i think you have thee best reviews, and i really value your opinion. Im thinking of using liquid foundation, and your videos have been so great
Good morning, I'm new to your channel. My daughter tagged me on one of your cut creased photos on IG. I'm glad she did. 😀😀 I'm Loving your accent and your channel. I'm a oily skin (greasy hot mess) girl 😧😧.
I'm new to your channel and love your videos, especially all your great tips for oily skin! Was just reading your description box and saw you're a paramedic -- my husband is a medic here in Canada :) Thank you so much for making such great videos!
I apply mılk of magnezıa- waıt for ıt to dry and then buff off the excess before I apply makeup. It works great wıth lıquıd or even cream products whıch I would NEVER have been able to wear before. I stıll wear Mac studıo fıx ıf I'm ın a rush, but M.O.M. wıll keeps me matte for about 10 hours where as before my makeup would last 2 hours max. I have super oıly skın.
Loving Clinique's beyond perfecting foundation w/ real techniques sponge. I'm 49 and it's my first time using a sponge and I've gotten a ton of compliments on how air brushed my skin looks. Go Figure!! Love the channel! I have a horrible oil t zone!
First video I'm watching of yours, directed from Chloe Morello's RG on IG ;) Watched this one for oily skin tips especially lids, and will check out those MAC pots. Try Estée Lauder's Little Black Primer and their double wear mascaras, only one that works for my oil slick lids and I've tried everything. Also MAC's Modern Twist Kajal liner (smudge with a brush) and their Liquid Last liner. I have crazy oily lids and it survives without smudging in 33C and 95% humidity.
I bought the hourglass mineral veil primer and I love it! Thank you for recommending! I've seen a lot good reviews about the Bobbi Brown vitamin enriched face base also, do think you could do a review on it for oily skin? xx
I love your channel! if anyone is looking for a drugstore foundation for oily skin defiantly recommend the rimmel 25 hour foundation if all else fails and its like £7 in the UK x
Bareminerals complexion rescue SPF 30 ❤️😍 its the best BB or CC cream ! It gives you nice glow and hydrate your skin with hint of colour as well ❤️ I really love it ! Best for summer time If you are looking for some light foundation! I put on top of that BarePro foundation what gives you Matt finish and honestly it look so natural and stay on your skin all day! It can give you high medium coverage but the more you wear the better it looks ❤️ it blends beautifully with you natural skin oil and your skin glow instead of being shiny. I these two products specially for summer time because I am sure that my make up look flawlessly all day and even thought I get some oil in the afternoon still foundation look so naturally like my skin and no one can say that I wear any make up. Nikkia try it once ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for this! Also just wanted to say I feel that you're HUGELY underrated and deserve so many more subscribers. You're gorgeous and informative! I really love watching your videos! ❤️👍🏻
This video helped me so much💖 i suffer with oily skin and finding the right foundation is always hard, so glad you uploaded this video and your foundation routine, both helped me to find new products that work amazingly on my skin!! 💖
New subscriber! Amazing video. You are easy to listen to, informative, stunning! And a fellow Aussie 🙈 I am oily too and can never find good videos for oily skin. I love Estée Lauder too and the L'Oréal matte one but want to try a new foundation, I'm thinking of trying the studio fix. I haven't tried Mac yet, shocking I know haha! I have Nars sheer glow but it goes wayyyyyy to shiny 😭
Any suggestions for a bb or cc cream? I have oily skin but my job isn't good for wearing full on makeup so I'd love to try some bb or cc creams! thanks!
You can try out etude house's cotton fit bb cream! it smells quite nice and dries very matte. I'm extremely oily and this is one of the only face products I can probably get away with just using it + a powder.
This might be a little late but I love the Erborian BB Creme. It's got a decent amount of coverage, mattifying, SPF 20, and it doesn't leave makeup on my white t-shirt collars even after I've gotten a full sweat on. I have oily, acne prone skin and I live in a hot, humid climate. Good luck!
so glad I found your channel!! not enough tips on the internet for oily skin
I recently bought a foundation for oily / combined skin: ever matte by Clarins, and honest to God I can sweat like a ho in a church but after a whole shift the foundation is still there lmao, I just have to put a bit of powder to matify, I use it and sometimes I use Estee Lauder double wear, I find it heavier than Ever Matte tho so it's better for me to use it in winter, these products are life savers :3

Estee Lauder is the best high end foundation. Lasts forever and the coverage is amazing and NO BREAKOUTS. OMG my HG foundation.

Which one better for oily the mac studio fix or estee lauder doble wear?,, tks

MAC waterweight foundation is AMAZING it is medium to full coverage and it literally feels like there's nothing on your face i love it so much
Hi Nikkia, I also recommend the NARS eyeshadow primer for oily eyelids. Although its a bit pricey, IT IS THE BEST THING EVER!!! it stays on more than 24hrs.
I love that you do videos for oily skin!!
Love, LOVE Shine Stopper by Paula's Choice. Works fabulously on oily skin. It's a must have!
I've used up like 10 bottles of the Murad oil control mattifier! I use it as primer. Major holy grail for oily skin!!!!
PLEASE post what lipsticks you wear! You have worn the MOST beautiful nude and pinky nude in your videos and I just HAVE to know what they are! Thank you!
Love that you talk about MAC! Very few vloggers do. Such ashamed... you actually mention three of my favorite MAC products...Liquid Studio Fix, Pro Long Wear Concealer, and Painterly Paint Pot. Thanks again doll.
Love your feedback for oily skin btw. Really looking forward to trying new products that you've recommend! Xoxo
sooooooooo glad found a channel of someone who has oily skin, helps so much
I also use rimmel stay matte primer daily, and cover girl clean matte powder and using those with the urban decay de slick, it works great for my super oily skin
I have a feeling you'll love the Kat Von D Lock It Foundation. I'm an oily girl too and it's amazing for coverage and oily skin 😊
I'm excited to do a first impressions on it! x
Hi Nikkia, I have recently discovered Airspun translucent powder made by Coty. I have really oily skin and it works great on my skin. You can use it to set your foundation or bake under the eyes. And the best thing of all its super affordable. 💖

I just got the Estée Lauder foundation and I'm wearing it right now it's sooooo beautiful omg my skin be looking flawless asf and my nose foundation don't rub off

Madisen Grace have you tried mixing it with a more dewy/luminous foundation or with beauty oil? If you mix 2 parts DW with one part dewy foundation or 1-2 drops on face oil it takes down the matte finish, but it stays longwear, not sure if this helps or not
Urban Decay All Nighter! Too face born this way is wayy to hydrating for someone with really oily skin. I have combo to dry skin and it makes my nose slightly oily...
So you would recommend Urban Decay All Nighter Ana Gómez ? Im just worried its TOO cakey??
Madisen Grace Definitely, in my experience it won't cake unless you put way too much on.
You should check Thrift Thick's review on the foundation, her skin is super oily and problematic.
Fellow oily skin person here. I would go with the UD All Nighter. I've tried it myself and the pigmentation is amazing. Use a Beauty Blender for the best, non-cakey application.

I am honestly in love with your videos!! My absolute favorite is the nars all day weightless luminous foundation..changed my life! And also can't live without the guerlain parure gold powder to set my makeup..give them a try if you havent!
I really love smash box bb cream. It really helps control shine.
Just read in your bio that you're a nurse and that makes me love you even more! I'm an oily skinned Pediatric RN who neeeeeeds tips for not turning into a grease bucket by 10am. I'm very lucky to have found your channel!
Additionally, if you can get your hands on Milani products, their eye shadow primer is my go-to eye shadow primer! It will last 13+ hours with no creasing!! And it's super affordable!
Savanna Robinson Im a maternity nurse myself and my skin is oily but gets flaky at the hospital and i noticed that a balancing moisturizer helps also a setting spray and also love the milani primer
what lipstick are you wearing,color as well??
I love your videos! I can totally relate because I have very oily skin and large pores! It sucks and I've struggled with finding the best foundation and for me, the best one so far I've loved is the Neutrogena oil free foundation. It has a rice protein complex in it and I stay matte forever! Keep making your videos! You are so talented and super gorgeous!
You convinced me to get the Estée Lauder foundation, can't wait to try it!
Hi. Loved the video, oily skin tips are always welcome. A few products I love for oily skin are Dr Feelgood from benefit. Smells lemony, it's a super matte primer that works well on the tzone. Dior also makes a mattifying pore filling primer that works very well. Revlon foundation for oily combination skin works just like double wear. YSL makes a lovely translucent pressed powder that won't spill or fly everywhere when using it. Paula's choice also makes a mattifying product to apply over foundation. It works very well. I hope you try some of these and enjoy 😊
I love using the Murad mattifier lotion.
I love Makeup forever mat velvet & cover fx setting powder for oily skin!
Love your videos! Just recently found you on RUclips and have been binge watching!
If you had to decide between the doublewear and the Mac... which would you pick?
Love this lip color!! What is it?!?? It's hard to find one so versatile! Love your oily skin videos!! Def. want to try the cleansing balm!
I have just watched a few of your videos, one was in the suggestion box and I really enjoy your videos, it's not easy with oily skin which is the main reason why I don't wear makeup, I will definitely subscribe and try out some make ups you showed that work, it's not easy finding foundations and other makeup that feel light but with good coverage
I'm glad I found you Nikia.
What lipstick are you wearing i love it!
You should try the Essie lash princess in the green tube. It's a new fave!
Please tell me the lip color you're wearing!!! So beautiful
Nikkia, I know this is an old video but do you have a tutorial on this look????! I love it!! If not, would you do one please!!
Thankyou for another great video gorgeous girl 💗 I am a fellow oily skin gal/makeup artist & everything you mentioned is on point 👊🏼 you must try the Laura mercier translucent powder (I prefer the one in the compact) as you don't waste the product or drop it. It is AMAZE used on a damp beauty blender over concealer & brushed lightly over the face. It controls oil & gives an airbrushed finish to the skin. I also swear by benefit shy beam for a Matt highlight 💗 and loreal telescopic mascara 👌🏼💜 love your videos 💕😘
Have you ever tried the Chanel "Lumeire" Velvet? (Not sure if I wrote it correctly 😹) I have oily skin and that one works wonders for me! I'm going to try the Estee Lauder tho!
Hi! Justin wanted to pop on really quick and say a a huge thank you for your great videos! I have been searching for years for a good foundation for my oily/big pored skin! I just purchased Estee and I LOVE IT!! I've never had a foundation work so well! So thanks again! ❣❣❣
another great vid! the Rimmel primer is my everyday fave too
Ive used the Inoxa primer in the past and its been great, goes on with a beautiful silky finish :)
Girl I need you as my friend! I am also an Aussie girl with oily skin and I love your reviews!
i really love your videos, i think you have thee best reviews, and i really value your opinion. Im thinking of using liquid foundation, and your videos have been so great
What lipstick do you use? 💄💋
Good morning, I'm new to your channel. My daughter tagged me on one of your cut creased photos on IG. I'm glad she did. 😀😀 I'm Loving your accent and your channel. I'm a oily skin (greasy hot mess) girl 😧😧.
I'm new to your channel and love your videos, especially all your great tips for oily skin! Was just reading your description box and saw you're a paramedic -- my husband is a medic here in Canada :) Thank you so much for making such great videos!
Ahh yes, love this video you mentioned so many of my fav HG products!
Your eyes! I can't stop looking at your eyes! Soo pretty! :)
I apply mılk of magnezıa- waıt for ıt to dry and then buff off the excess before I apply makeup. It works great wıth lıquıd or even cream products whıch I would NEVER have been able to wear before. I stıll wear Mac studıo fıx ıf I'm ın a rush, but M.O.M. wıll keeps me matte for about 10 hours where as before my makeup would last 2 hours max. I have super oıly skın.
I literally come here to hear your accent
Aww haha! What kind of accent do you have!
Canadian. Also You're really pretty ( Btw this is an old account can't change the name don't know how. I'm not a Pony Freak Miss!)
Thank you! I love Canadian accents!
Well you can hear mine anytime if you want just message me if you want my skype :D have a great day Ma'am

What lipstick are you wearing? its beautiful on you.
Can you please do a video on your must have essential products for your freelance professional makeupkit?
Thank you.
Loving Clinique's beyond perfecting foundation w/ real techniques sponge. I'm 49 and it's my first time using a sponge and I've gotten a ton of compliments on how air brushed my skin looks. Go Figure!! Love the channel! I have a horrible oil t zone!
i don't know if i should purchase the estee lauder double wear or the mac studio fix fluid foundation. Any tips?
leslie lopez same drama here!! I’m completely lost!! Which one did you end up buying? ☺️
In a recent video she recommended the Mac for 'special occasions,' pictures and Estee Lauder for every day wear.
I’m gonna try the MAC!
BTW, I made a few notes and jotted down a few products I'm going to try! Thank you again!
Thank you gorgeous!! I need t decide which is best for combo skin
try the Becca Ever Matte!
First video I'm watching of yours, directed from Chloe Morello's RG on IG ;) Watched this one for oily skin tips especially lids, and will check out those MAC pots. Try Estée Lauder's Little Black Primer and their double wear mascaras, only one that works for my oil slick lids and I've tried everything. Also MAC's Modern Twist Kajal liner (smudge with a brush) and their Liquid Last liner. I have crazy oily lids and it survives without smudging in 33C and 95% humidity.
my go to mascara had been Dior's Diorshow for a few years now
I bought the hourglass mineral veil primer and I love it! Thank you for recommending! I've seen a lot good reviews about the Bobbi Brown vitamin enriched face base also, do think you could do a review on it for oily skin? xx
Love your videos!👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much!! xx
I love your channel! if anyone is looking for a drugstore foundation for oily skin defiantly recommend the rimmel 25 hour foundation if all else fails and its like £7 in the UK x
hiiii nikkiaaa
first of all I've to say you're one of the most talented and professional makeup artists here on the tube!!
Bareminerals complexion rescue SPF 30 ❤️😍 its the best BB or CC cream ! It gives you nice glow and hydrate your skin with hint of colour as well ❤️ I really love it ! Best for summer time If you are looking for some light foundation! I put on top of that BarePro foundation what gives you Matt finish and honestly it look so natural and stay on your skin all day! It can give you high medium coverage but the more you wear the better it looks ❤️ it blends beautifully with you natural skin oil and your skin glow instead of being shiny. I these two products specially for summer time because I am sure that my make up look flawlessly all day and even thought I get some oil in the afternoon still foundation look so naturally like my skin and no one can say that I wear any make up. Nikkia try it once ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nikkia, have you tried e.l.f. Mineral infused primer? If you have what do you think about it? I have oily sensitive skin and problems with acne.
Thank you for this! Also just wanted to say I feel that you're HUGELY underrated and deserve so many more subscribers. You're gorgeous and informative! I really love watching your videos! ❤️👍🏻
yes yes yes!!!! shopping list pad and pen and a glass of a wine. Thank you!!!!!!!
This video helped me so much💖 i suffer with oily skin and finding the right foundation is always hard, so glad you uploaded this video and your foundation routine, both helped me to find new products that work amazingly on my skin!! 💖
I'm so glad it has helped Destiny!! Let me know how you go with them :) x
New subscriber! Amazing video. You are easy to listen to, informative, stunning! And a fellow Aussie 🙈 I am oily too and can never find good videos for oily skin. I love Estée Lauder too and the L'Oréal matte one but want to try a new foundation, I'm thinking of trying the studio fix. I haven't tried Mac yet, shocking I know haha! I have Nars sheer glow but it goes wayyyyyy to shiny 😭
I've just found your channel and I really LOVE IT ! :) Also because it's for oily skin !! Tell us more about drugstore products pleaseee :*
Any suggestions for a bb or cc cream? I have oily skin but my job isn't good for wearing full on makeup so I'd love to try some bb or cc creams! thanks!
You can try out etude house's cotton fit bb cream! it smells quite nice and dries very matte. I'm extremely oily and this is one of the only face products I can probably get away with just using it + a powder.
Manda H I've heard that BB creams clog your pores and you shouldn't use them if you have acne prone skin
This might be a little late but I love the Erborian BB Creme. It's got a decent amount of coverage, mattifying, SPF 20, and it doesn't leave makeup on my white t-shirt collars even after I've gotten a full sweat on. I have oily, acne prone skin and I live in a hot, humid climate. Good luck!
Hi love your channel!! What lipstick are you wearing in your videos? It's gorgeous !!!
what color lipstick are you wearing in this video? I love it!
