If your skin leans towards being oily. There are a few products that I can recommend and they are as follows:

1. The OCM (Oil Cleansing Method) here is a link for more detail info www.oilcleasningmethod.com  but, it is castor oil and olive oil mixed and massaged onto the face to help fight the ollies .

2. Mattifier, this is a product that is usually clear in color. MAC makes a great one. It can be used on top of or before you apply foundation and it helps to stop the ollies as well.
Check MAC'S website under misc. and it's called Matte

3. Makeup Forever makes a wonderful matte foundation called  Mat + Velvet Mattifying Foundation. It works wonders on oily skin.

Hope this helps

Sorry for getting back so late but, according to my chart
the equivalent shade to MAC's NW35 is either Honey or Golden. but  you will have to be swatched to make sure those shades suit your skin tone.

Thank you for not forgetting about me!!!!  I looked up the nearest Bobbi places in town - ummm - Ionknow - it might be a while before I get to hit her up.

I saw a thing on Bare Minerals last night (insomniac attack - was up watching infomercials) have you used that stuff before?  Is it any good?

I hear lots of people talk about Bare Minerals but, I've never tired them out.

Currently my favorite mineral make up is MAC's mineralize skin finish (I love , love, love  this stuff)
I also like Blac Minerals because there mineral products cater to women of color and thay have great samples.

Nevermind - just went to the website and it's too many steps to get that shiot on!!! I am a two step type chick!  Love the MAC foundation stick and loose powder!  That's it for me! 

When I get 'fancy' i use a prescriptives eyeshadow combo that I bought - neutral shades only - never do bold makeup unless I am going out......

Thanks again for the tips!!!
