Oily skin is a balancing act. You want a healthy glow, but you definitely don’t want a shiny forehead by 2PM. We created Beauty Base Oil Control to be the go-to makeup primer for anyone whose makeup tends to slip and slide throughout the day.  

This clever formula uses absorbent powders to soak up excess oil and blur the appearance of pores, creating a silky-smooth canvas that foundation actually grips to. Unlike old-school mattifying primers that can feel heavy or chalky, this is a skin-first formula that keeps you feeling fresh and balanced. Depending on your skin type, you can apply all over or just to areas where you get the most shine. 

Apply to bare skin using your fingers or a brush.

Alternatively, apply to specific areas that are prone to excess oil like your T-zone, and use one of our other Beauty Bases elsewhere.
