In my teenage years and my early 20s, I'd do everything I could to combat any signs of oil or shine on my face, and more often than not, that usually meant applying layer upon layer of translucent powder. In summer, when everybody's skin naturally looks a little glowier due to the heat, I wouldn't leave the house without a powder compact in my bag and would reapply it every hour. By the end of the day, rather than looking chic and shine-free, my skin looked dull and chalky. Also, the powder had settled into fine lines I didn't even know I had.
These days, I skip the powder entirely and embrace the shine. It's more natural, makes skin look healthier and pretty much removes the need for highlighter entirely. Instead, I use a combination of a long-wear primer, a tinted moisturiser instead of a full-coverage foundation (I find that it wears more evenly throughout the day and means you're not battling to keep a full face of makeup in place) and blotting papers if I feel like I'm really verging into oil-slick territory.
