After I do my foundation I put on a powder to set it. If I don't I get waaay too oily. Every powder I've tried has made my makeup look cakey and gross by an hour or two later. Any suggestions on powders that won't do so?

Mac msf natural or a translucent powder. Then set it with fix+ or the nyx dewy setting spray.

It might be the foundation

You need to use toner or cold water to close your pores.
If you have dry skin then I suggest you stay away from Powders in general if you have dry skin and use setting sprays instead.

Try the maybelline dream matte powder. Its very finely milled so It doesn't appear cakey no matter how many layers you put on.
