Wednesday Health and Beauty: Oily Skin Solution

It's summer. With summer comes hot humid weather, which unfortunately causes oily skin to become more oily. We don't have air conditioning at the school I work at and after a day of running around I could feel my makeup sliding off of my face. I looked in the mirror and it was not a pretty sight. I can often get away with throwing some foundation and bronzer on in the morning. But now that the weather is getting warmer I need to use a setting powder to help keep the oiliness at bay. I wanted to get a translucent powder because putting a coloured powder foundation over liquid foundation is sometimes too heavy and feels cakey. Most translucent powders come as loose powders, which is inconvenient for throwing in your purse for touch ups. I did find a pressed powder version today by Bare Escentuals.
