I have very oily skin. I currently use L'Oreal True Match and I really like it, but after a few hours my skin looks really oily. I don't use a primer, I just use a moisturizer under my foundation and then I use L'Oreal True Match powder over my foundation and reapply it a couple times throughout the day. Should I just use a primer or should I change my foundation? I heard Revlon Colorstay is really good but I don't know if I should bother trying another foundation.

Primer and setting powder. You could also try blot sheets, I heard MAC has amazing ones.

I love revlon colorstay whipped foundation & I have oily skin.. But also I do use hard candys primer.. If you do get a primer it may help with the oiliness but I do recommend revlon! Hope this helps

I have normal skin and when I use true match I find I look shiny/oily throughout the day.. you should try either covergirl 3 in 1 foundation (matte finish) and lasts all day!

Both use a foundation that claims to mattify and a mattifying primer under should keep you shine free all day.

Try using a primer first. I like elf's and it's only $6. If that doesn't work, try Revlon's.
