Have you tried Maybelline Pure Make-Up Foundation ($15.50 from pharmacies)? It’s not only oil-free, but is made up of 50 per cent water and feels really fresh and light on the skin. You might also like a spray foundation, such as Era Face ($68 from The Makeup Business), which is also water-based. Final tip: if you can get away with less coverage, try DIY-ing a tint by mixing a little of any regular foundation into an oil-free or oil-control moisturiser.

Hi Anon - Maybelline has launched a fabulous one. It’s called Mineral Power Foundation and is only $22.95. It can be worn nice and light so should suit your skin well. K x
