I recently checked out her post "4 go-to Makeup Primers & Essentials for Oily or Combination Skin", as I'm always looking for an excuse to try out new products. It's a great read and really helpful if you're looking for product recommendations and application tips.

Here's a short excerpt from that article:

MATTE DOESN’T MEAN DULL

This post will benefit anyone who has an oily or combination skin. If I don’t use specific primers/makeup products my makeup won’t last 5 minutes and will start to slide off or even worse, crease and makes my skin appear older than I am.

Unfortunately, a combination of too many ‘mattifying’ makeup products can on the flip side create the same problems of creasing and more likely, a dull and dry complexion for someone with oily skin – nobody wants that! This doesn’t mean you need a whole drawer full of products either but just be mindful of how much product you are applying and have a play with what works for your skin. If you are a beauty junkie you will know makeup is a game of trial and error and we have all invested in makeup trends/popular products and its just not worked for us like it does others – the struggle is real!
