Yeah, younger, like when my skin was even more oily than it is now.
My skin is always oily. Pretty much. The sunscreen I wear adds to that. I've just accepted it. My mom has aged well, so I'm hoping that will be my reward for having oily skin, too.

I use Mabelline Foundation the one that us 50% water. Some powder to make sure it doesnt come off by the end of the day. Cover Girl blush. black eye shadow and a angle brush for my eye liner. White eye shadow on my lower lid. and a brown color on my crease of my eye. Then I put on some Mascara and curl them with a heated eye lash curler.

Aren't you like 16!?! My mom NEVER let me wear makeup while living at home....and I didn't really care about it - I was lucky if I could keep hold of a stick of chapstick for more than an hour

Of course - none of my friends wore makeup either - we were all band geeks

My mom used to do my make up when I was younger and I just loved it so I got hooked....lol.....WHAT CHAPSTICK!....lol....Thats funny My freinds were make up....my freinds and I arent in the 'popular' group we have our own group.....but my freind Ally and I r the founders of our group....lol

awwww..I'm sorry! well, if it makes you feel any better, my skin is so dry that I break out with every single product. That's why I have to wear the expensive stuff. Well, expensive for ME anyway! 15$ for foundation is high for me!! ha ha. anyway-I just don't like the "caked-on" look, and so I know if I have just a little bit of shine in a few places I'm doing good. I've never had oily skin, so do you get blemishes more???

I can't speak for her - but I'm also an oily skinned person and YES - I get so many blemishes. I HATE it.

I never had oily skin until I moved to the East - then I guess the humidity and moisture in the air just didn't agree with me...so starting about two years ago my skin really started going downhill

I used to have just flawless and beautiful skin - now, not so much

Being back in the west has helped though - my skin is already clearing up and I'm not all oily. I'm not completely dry either - I like a happy medium - which I feel I have achieved here
