    I have oily skin too and have tried a bunch of drugstore foundations lately. I'll list them for you along with how they held up for my oily skin. I did use an oil controlling primer with these products.

    - Loreal True Match: very light weight, medium coverage, would get shiny, but not to the point where it would melt off, natural looking

    - Revlon colorstay liquid (for normal/dry skin, I couldn't find the one for oily skin, so I suggest you get that one): medium to high coverage, did get oily in 4 hours, but it looked good all day

    - Revlon colorstay whipped - medium to high coverage, controlled oil pretty well, looked flawless, looked better as the day wore on

    - Loreal Infallible Pro Matte: Kept me the most matte, medium coverage, looked great

    Loreal also came out with the Infallible Pro Matte powder and setting spray. The powder doesn't control oil any better than any other powder, but not bad! The setting spray is great too!

    Overall, I recommend Revlon whipped or Loreal Infallible pro matte for oily gals.

    L'oreal True Match, Revlon ColorStay for Combo/Oily skin, Maybelline FitMe Poreless Matte foundation. I also use Urban Decay's De Slick Oil control setting spray.

    I have pretty oily skin and acne prone. I actually have had no success finding something I am truly in love with. I use the Almay BB cream,the white bottle, but it's too orange for my skin tone it is quite long lasting for my really oily skin. Also, I have started using the Revlon Colorstay whipped formula foundation and I really like it is the most long lasting foundation I have tried and it doesn't break me out. There is also the maybelline dream wonder BB cream with salicylic acid and that one is light and it's good but this one is too pink for my skin tone. I am pretty light skinned with neutral undertones. I have heard the Clinique foundation is great for oily skin and also powders are better because they absorb the oil
