Neutrogena Shine Control Makeup

I have been patiently waiting to get my hands on the new Neutrogena Shine Control makeup.  My hubby was nice enough to buy it for me even though I put up a fight, it’s not cheap especially for drugstore but consistent with Neutrogena’s pricing.  Everything was $12.99 each at Target.  I got the Shine control powder which only comes in Invisible 10, the primer and the liquid foundation in Buff 30.  I was really excited for the shine control primer.  I have been wanting to try NYX Shine Killer forever now so when I saw this I had high expectations.  I was disappointed.  It doesn’t do anything for my oily skin.  The foundation color I got is a shade too light for me.   I should have gotten Nude or Natural Beige but I made it work.  Everything looks amazing when first applied but on a hot day like today, it did not last 8 hours as it claims.  It does look good for the first 4-5 hours but I have to touch up and use blotting tissues. The packaging is sleek in the black matte finish look.  The liquid foundation is in a glass jar, like the Revlon Colorstay foundation.  I have been using this for a week and have experimented on different ways to make it  stay matte longer but I have yet to come up with a combo that works.  Right now the weather is very hot and I don't think any type of foundation or tinted moisturizer is going to look right on my face.  Any advice?  I'd love some help.  

This is the display at Target where I got these items from.  The prices are underneath the plastic banner under the display.  The Primer and liquid foundations are $12.99 each.  The Powder is $11.99.
