1. What are the best makeup products for oily skin?

For oily skin, it's best to choose oil-free products. Look for mattifying primers, foundations with a matte finish, and setting powders to control shine. Brands like MAC and Maybelline offer great options for oily skin types.

2. How do I choose the right foundation shade for my skin?

To find the right foundation shade, always test the foundation along your jawline or wrist, as this area is usually the closest match to your face. Look for a foundation that blends into your natural skin tone. If you are not sure - apply 3 colours which you think match your shade and compare them, then select one.
