... Read moreAs someone who has struggled with oily and combination skin, I can totally relate to the challenge of finding makeup that stays put without making your face feel cakey or greasy. What I love most about this routine is the careful selection of products that balance hydration and oil control. Starting the skincare with the Youth To The People Superfood Air-Whip Moisture Cream is a game-changer. It provides enough moisture without feeling heavy, which is crucial for oily/combo skin types. Then, using Milani’s radiant primer preps the skin to create a smooth canvas and helps minimize shine throughout the day. When applying foundation, Armani’s Luminous Silk in Shade 13 offers buildable coverage that doesn’t slip off oily areas. For me, layering Milani Conceal + Perfect and Huda Beauty Faux Filter Concealer helps cover any imperfections and brighten under the eyes without creasing. Setting with Huda Beauty Easy Bake Loose Powder in Pound Cake is perfect for mattifying without looking flat, and the combination of Hard Candy Look Unlock and Milani Make It Last setting sprays locks everything in place while adding a subtle dewiness. For the eyes, the Morphe x James Charles palette is super versatile and pigmented, and Maybelline’s Great Lash Mascara really amps up the lashes without smudging. I also appreciate how the bronzers and blushes—especially Juvia’s Place and the Huda Beauty Blush Filter Palette—add warmth and dimension without enhancing shine. Finishing with a glossy NYX Butter Gloss in Fortune Cookie and a brown Elf lip pencil gives a natural yet polished look. This routine proves you can have a radiant, long-lasting makeup look even with tricky oily or combo skin, as long as you use the right combination of products. If you’re on the hunt for a makeup routine that works well for oily or combination skin, I highly recommend giving this lineup a try. It balances dewiness and matte finishes beautifully and feels comfortable all day, no touch-ups needed!
