Finding the right products for oily-combo skin can be tricky, especially without spending a fortune. Recently, I’ve been trying out various foundations and moisturizers that claim to control shine while still keeping the skin hydrated. I’ve had some success with a few, but I’m unsure if they’re the best choices available.

I’m really interested in what you all have discovered this year. What affordable, multi-use products have you found effective for oily-combo skin? Are there any specific brands or items that you think I should check out? I can’t wait to see your recommendations!

I’ve been loving the e.l.f. Matte Putty Primer lately! It really helps control shine, and I’ve also found the NYX Can’t Stop Won’t Stop foundation to be pretty solid for oily skin. Both are super affordable and have worked well for me this year. Definitely worth a try!

I’ve had pretty good luck with the Neutrogena Hydro Boost line lately. The gel moisturizer is light but still keeps the shine away, and it’s super affordable. Also, the Maybelline Fit Me foundation works great for mixing it up—doesn’t clog my pores at all!
