Brain, use an oil-free moisturizer and a gel cleanser.. a witch-hazel or tea tree toner will also help control the oil. A primer smoothen’s out fine-lines and minimizes the appearance of large pores and also makes your foundation last longer.
Lots of people have the same complaint with MAC foundations/powders (the ghostly white face in pictures).
Try Bobbi Brown, they’re slightly ‘yellow’ and if you find a perfect match it’sll be invisible on your face!
Strobe cream provides the skin a very pretty ‘dewy’ finish
