I normally use Estee Lauder's Double Matte foundation. This usually keeps the greasies in check. But here lately, my foundation can't seem to hold up for more than an hour. Any ideas?

I do want to try Bare Minerals Matte. I tried the original version and it was not kind to my oily skin. Thanks for the tips.

i like neutrogena's healthy skin liquid make up or revlon's photoready but i heard that revlon's colorstay is good too. i have really oily skin and i set my make up wtih about 3 powders lol but i use a stippling brush so it doesn't cake up

@Mandy K Do you know if Makeup Forever's Mat Velvel+ is Oil control or just oil free?

@Samantha G. I used to use Revlon Colorstay, but I think they changed the formula because it just doesn't hold up for me anymore.

The bare minerals matte is ok, it sometimes makes me look cakey and for me is a light/medium coverage depending on how many times i apply it but it has a decent hold-up power if you want to call it that. i mean, for a natural look i think it's worth the money. and also if you buy it you can invest in the mineral veil too, it'll add more oil control to certain areas you apply it.
