I've tried a few but my skin is mainly dry but they might work for you. Roc has some good stuff, I would try that or Vichy. Go to Shoppers or London Drugs or something, the cosmeticians are usually pretty good about finding the right product for you and if you can't decide they give you samples to try for a few days.Fri, 13 Jun 2008 13:04:54 GMTaotterhttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxThe Avene line (available at the supersized Shoppers branches) has a great oily/sensitive/problem-prone line - very gentle face wash, oil-control toner and a shine-control serum that works great! <br><br>I'm mainly oily in the t-zone (forehead and nose, and a bit on the chin), so I just dab the serum on those spots and it seems to keep the oil in check. I do use a loose powder foundation year-round (Everyday Minerals), and a shine-control pressed powder from Cover FX. Seems to be working so far this year!Fri, 13 Jun 2008 11:13:04 GMThopeharrishttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxI have the same problem and I started using Bioderma's Sebium line of skin care products. I got in at the cosmetic's department at Shoppers Drug Mart. I love it, it's great!Wed, 11 Jun 2008 21:03:21 GMTanchor31http://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxOh, believe me, when I get home, the first thing I do is wash off my makeup and cleanse my face...but 5 minutes later, really oily and sticky from the humidity. This has never happened to me before. Not to this extent. I will try the toner and that Estee Lauder foundation. Thanks for the suggestions ladies.Tue, 10 Jun 2008 21:17:19 GMTlovemrkhttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxBenefit (a line now available at Shoppers Drug Mart where they have a full designer beauty dept. with cosmeticians on hand) has some interesting products to beat shine that I was checking out the other day. I LOVE them!<br><br>Wondering if anyone has used any of their stuff and what you thought. The stuff feels great (from samples I tried). <br><br>Also you might consider cleansing with toner. I agree with less is more in summer time. Something to beat the shine is best and don't rely on foundation too much as it just melts and really, in high heat there's not much that can prevent that other than staying out of direct sun and indoors with A/C.Tue, 10 Jun 2008 14:34:18 GMT2bwed0609http://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxEstee Lauder has a great foundation called "Double Wear"...and a great powder foundation also called "Double Wear". They are long wearing and hold up amazingly through all of this yucky heat! Tue, 10 Jun 2008 10:18:18 GMTsuzyQ22http://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxI use less moisturizer and foundation in the summer. I wash my face, and then use a pressed powder instead of a cream foundation, and it seems to work a bit better. If I'm not mistaken, I believe there are some oil control pressed powders available. This in combination with the blotting papers might solve your problem.</P><P>By the way, one really good moisturizer that isn't too oily and has SPF in it, is the Body Shop Vitamin E Facial Day Lotion. I use it every day, it's awesome.Tue, 10 Jun 2008 10:11:47 GMTBellzBridehttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxI feel your pain!!! I use blotting papers - I like the ones from Mary Kay the best - to take away the oil. But I would love to hear other' suggestions as well. Mon, 09 Jun 2008 20:24:31 GMTsaraht76http://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic401020-5-1.aspxAlright ladies, I have always had oily sking (T-zone) but in the past week, with all this heat and humidity...OMG....I can't believe how oily my skin is. My make up doesn't stay on at all. 5 minutes after I cleanse my face, it's all oily again. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please!!Mon, 09 Jun 2008 19:33:03 GMTlovemrk
