Use oil free foundation and carry blotting papers. You can also try using a translucent powder.

You may also want to exfoliate before you apply your makeup in your dry areas. I would recommend a translucent powder rather than a regular powder :)

Always moisturize even in your oily areas. Your skin produces more oil when you don't moisturize.

Try a matifying primer on your t-zone (after you mosituriZe) to help decrease the oiliness... & Blotting paper  >=)
