Keeping Base On Face

Keeping Base On Face
If you have oily to combination skin the one thing you will always think about when summer is here is how do I keep my makeup from sliding off my face? Well, I have two answers; a primer and a setting spray. I have oily to spot prone skin which over the years I have battled with a lot but only for the past 6 month, I'd say I have found myself a makeup routine that stops my makeup from sliding down my face or keeps that shine at bay for longer. 

Witch Hazel Anti-Blemish Primer: If you don't suffer from blemishes but have oily skin then you may still want to consider this product. I have used this primer since the age of 17 (I am now 21) that is a lot of years of dedication put into one solo primer. Of course, I have tried my fair share of lotions and potions for my base but none are as good as this holy grail. I used to find throughout the days I didn't wear this primer that my makeup looked uncomfortable, it shined a lot more and some of the time spots would appear. This product helps stop blemishes from appearing during the day and keeps your makeup at bay. I 10000% think this primer has helped keep my makeup looking fresher and lasting longer than any other primer I have tried. Some people skip primers as they don't count it as essential but that extra layer can make the difference in your makeup.

Urban Decay Makeup Setting Spray: If you really want flawless, keep base on face makeup for longer then I would recommend the Urban Decay Setting Sprays. A couple of spritz of this all over your makeup and you are ready to go. This product really makes a difference to my makeup. I have only used this for 6 or 7 months now and cannot fault the product one bit. My skin always feels more awake and fresh once I spray this and my makeup lasts such a long time. With this and a good primer, your makeup will stay in place for such a long time.

Since using both of these products religiously in my everyday makeup routine I now never worry about if my makeup is shining or sliding off after a few hours. 

What are your oily skin heroes??
