10 Best Foundations for Oily Skin in India 2021(Revlon, L’Oreal Paris and More)

Try to choose a powder type foundation. This type is a solid form of powdered pigment. The powdered form helps to absorb the excess sebum secretion and also has a control on its secretion. It has an advantage when used on oily skin as it reduces excess oil and also prevents collapse of the make-up due to sebum for a long time.
Also, it is easier to apply makeup in comparison to other types of foundation, so it suits oily skin perfectly which requires frequent retouching.

There are basically two types of powder foundation. One that is applied without water and the other that is applied with water.
When you use with water, take few drops of water in the sponge and then squeezed it firmly, and next you gradually paint the foundation on the skin using this wet sponge.
You can note that the foundation containing moisture helps stretch the skin like a liquid and later solidifies slightly as and when the moisture evaporates. There after, it firmly adheres to the skin and the increases the life of the makeup.
Especially during summer when there is a remarkable increase in the secretion of sweat / sebum, this is a make-up method you would like to try.

It is similar to the powder type, but consists of fine loose powder particles. You can use various brushes or puffs instead of sponge for application of this type of foundation to get a smooth finish on skin.
This type of loose foundation is also extremely light and very comfortable to wear, the only drawback being that it has a low degree of adhesion and its ability to control sebum is not very strong. Therefore, it is not very suitable for oily skin.

Not all people with oily skins have the same skin quality. There is active sebum secretion due to prolongation of puberty during teenage to early twenties. In such a scenario, it is better to select a foundation that focuses on the sebum control function, while miniaturization is more important in the later age.
After late 20’s, oily skin is usually dry on the inner side. Inner dryness is a condition in which excess sebum has been secreted to compensate for the lack of water due to drying of the inner skin. So anything you use becomes sticky when you touch it. Liquid foundation would be best for such situations.
Also, people with mixed skin can use it to make a base with this type of liquid foundation, and finally finish off with powder type, preventing collapse of the makeup and one that lasts long.

The cream foundation has a very good adhesive property to the skin, it also has a covering power giving a neat finish, but because it contains a lot of oil, it mixes with sebum when used on oily skin, and hastens the collapse of your makeup.
Too much oil can lead to clogging of pores and worsening of acne so we would advice you to avoid this type if you have an oily skin.

One of the most important factor for a gorgeous looking skin is that the foundation matches the colour of your skin. Particularly, if you have oily skin depending on the foundation that you use, it can becom dark and dull with time, so you need to be extremely cautious.
Therefore for oily skin, its better to choose a lighter shade , lighter than your neck color. It is also necessary to match tones such as pink, beige etc to get a complete look.
