currently trying out everyday minerals, but when i first buff it in it looks pretty good, after awhile throughout the day my skin gets SOOO oily!!!!! i think the oil sits on top of the mineral makeup??? how to combat this?

Do you have oily skin when you don't wear the minerals, or just when you do? If you have oily skin (like I do), you can use a primer first, it will keep your skin from getting shiny so fast. Or do what many BE wearers do, put a light layer of oil-absorbing powder (like Mineral Veil) under the foundation, then another light layer on top (BE wearer call it a "MV sandwich") of the foundation. If you don't normally have oily skin, or if those methods don't work for you, it may be that particular brand of minerals.

i use mineral makeup and arbonne has a product called the personalizer. i recommend this for oily skin
Apply this oil absorbing convenient powder before
moisturizer to keep your matte finish intact day or
night. Trace minerals from oat and wheat dust off
unwanted shine and a light green tint helps balance
oily redness. Carry the compact with you for
quick touch-ups. I use this personally and this does keep your skin from
looking oily. This contains zinc which is an element that is used for
controlling oil. all the ingredients help in this product
look at it here http://myladybeau.myarbonne.com
or ask this lady
i use it and its great and last a long time

Hello,
It's best to use a good skin regime. Keep the skin clean & free of dead skin cells. This may not be oil it could be a build up of cells. Also a good moisturizer to soften the skin then apply the mineral makeup.
Best Wishes

Try Jane Iredale. I have combo skin and it works beautifully for me. I am light beige and wear the "satin" color.
I hated GloMinerals and Bare Escentuals bc of oil breakthru and it looked obvious or glimmery on the face in sunlight.
