I actually thought I was the only girl who would get oily after less than one hour! It's nice to see that other girls have the same struggles as me, now I feel so much better, thank you for sharing this video! <3

[jessiep]

I say every day, "idk why I even put on makeup" because my oil ruins it all! Ughh the struggle is real!

[kaseypaige]

Hopeing this will work for school because only half way through the day my face is soooo oily and messy

[lord_empress]

I know this video is old but I need to comment on it because it works!! A little history of my skin, I have oily skin especially on my nose, cheeks, and forehead. My makeup wouldn't last at all even with setting spray. I'm taking medications (Aczone and Retin-A Micro) and it's making my pores produce more oils.
Anyway, this is exactly what I did:
Setting spray (urban decay all nighter)
Primer (benefit the porefessional face)
Powder (Laura Mercier Translucent loose powder)
Foundation (estee Lauder double wear)
Powder (same as mentioned above)
Do your normal make up routine
Setting spray (same as mentioned above)
My makeup stayed on for HOURS. Went to an outdoor wedding and it was perfectly fine. I didn't need to use my Clean & Clear oil absorbing sheets. Thank your so much, Nikkia! You have changed my life!!

[shanleyshoupe]

i love when people with nearly flawless skin say that a foundation is full coverage. of course its full coverage, you dont have anything to cover!

[aimeeallen]

My problem is if I use matte products I look cakey but non matte products make me shiny😩

[quietchaos]

Steps she used:
1. Setting spray
2. Primer
3. Translucent powder
4. Matte foundation
5. Concealer
6. Translucent powder (used w/ damp beauty blender)
7. Blush, Contour (highlighter)
8. Dust your face (lol)
9. Your makeup (any eye makeup and lipstick)
10. Done

Puts make up for an hour, went out to a 32°C for only 10 mins, then people be like, "girl, you need to put powder on your face!" Oil and sweat is face and make-up's worst enemy!

How does she only have 209k subscribers?

So many cosmetics "gurus" on YT don't speak well and in general just aren't very bright. This girl, however, is very well-spoken and seems rather intelligent, not to mention the fact of her tips being so incredibly helpful.

I almost came to the conclusion that it doesn't make any sense, and then reminded myself that the masses prefer unintelligible, half-assedly comedic "GRWM" videos as opposed to the quality of the videos I'm seeing on this channel.

Such is life, I suppose.

a lot of people with oily skin also have issues with acne, and that's the case with me. If I did this, my face would break out into a mess. when I do anything to keep oil from breaking through it clogs my pores. best bet is to use blotting papers throughout the day.

[camronnicolegreen]

I feel like I get WAYYYY more oily when I wear makeup. When I go makeup free I only slightly get oily in my t zone

[camayalucky]

I have oily skin, and I use smashbox primer for oily skin, Laura Mercier to set and I spray with urban decay long lasting spray and my makeup stays in place all day with no touch ups. It may even work better with the oil control urban decay spray.

[bautyqun]

I followed the steps and it literally change my makeup routine! It prevent my skin from getting too oily, last longer and minimizes the appearance of large pores! I applied eyeshadow primer on my nose too and it prevents the makeup from creasing in my nostrils! Thank you Nikkia!

[shannonc]

Being someone who's face looks incredibly greasy like 2-3 hours in at work this helped so much. I tried it yesterday and my face was flawlessly matte longer than its ever been! Thank you so much for this tip ~

[ramirezalma]

I started doing your tricks and I love how my skin looks, it does not get shiny anymore 🙌 by the end of the day my skin looks good. I've even received compliments that my skin looks flawless. ❤❤❤ Love your videos ❤❤❤

[rileyhoover]

This routine is the BEST! My skin is so oily, this helps me so so much! Now if you love full coverage then this isn't the best routine for you to get into. But I would rather have some of my acne show through than having my face look wet and my makeup sliding all around! Thank you so much
