Having oily skin and using a cream foundation can be a bit tricky and often requires some help when troubleshooting Seint makeup. Here are a few things you might want to try if your oily skin is giving you issues:
Adjustment Period: First, you must keep in mind that there is always an adjustment period when you introduce your skin to a new product. So, you should always give your skin at least 2+ weeks to adapt. This is especially true when it comes to oily skin.
Proper Skincare: A good skincare routine is essential. When our skin thinks it is not receiving the moisture and nutrients it needs, our bodies will overcompensate by providing an excess of oils to make up for what it believes it is lacking. With a proper skincare regime in place, your skin will start to acknowledge that it is getting what it is asking for, and the skin’s oil production will slow down and start to moderate itself. If you need some good skin care suggestions, let me know.
Use Setting Spray: Setting Spray is like hairspray for the face (without the sticky aftermath). It will help set your makeup in place and make it last all day! Just spray Setting Spray on your face after you have applied your makeup. And for added impact, you can also apply Setting Spray before you apply your makeup and use it as a primer as well. Setting Spray also has the benefit of giving a dewy and more natural glow to your face.
Use a Damp Sponge: Use a damp (not wet) perfector sponge at the end of your makeup application to press in the products and pick up any excess.
Set with Powder: If you tend to get some midday shine in your t-zone area, or even if you just prefer a more matte finish, apply a light application of translucent setting powder Seint’s Vanilla Dust is an excellent option – and it fits right in your palette) after you’ve completed your makeup application. Setting Powder will help absorb any extra facial oils. For extra oily skin, apply a more generous amount of powder, and then let it set on your skin and “bake” before you brush off the excess powder. Another great tip? Apply powder after you’ve applied your Setting Spray. The combination of setting spray and setting powder will keep your makeup in place all day! If you prefer a loose powder I have another I can recommend.
Use Shine Paper: Seint’s Shine Paper is a great way to absorb excess oils on your skin. As part of your skin prep before you apply your makeup, dab a piece of Shine Paper on your skin to remove any oils from your skin. You can then use shine paper as needed throughout the day to freshen up your t-zone and eliminate any shine that may occur as the day wears on.
Use a Water-Based Primer: If all else fails, you can always use a primer. Primer is used to help prep the skin for makeup application. Using a primer will help give your skin some extra grip, reduce oil production, and keep your makeup in place all day. Always use a water-based primer (not silicone-based) when working with cream makeup.
Less is More: And most importantly when it comes to troubleshooting Seint makeup when you have oily skin, is to always remember that less is more. This is especially true when it comes to working with a cream makeup. Try using less product and only use what is necessary to achieve the look that you want.
