Alima primer powder vs. EM silk dusk
Hi all,

Since you guys are all seasoned veterans of priming and mineral foundation, I was wondering if you could shed some light on which priming powder is the best? I have been recommended by Alima balancing pimer powder and the Everyday Minerals tinted silk dust. Has anyone had experience with both/either of these? If so, what did you think?

I have combo/acne-prone skin and I can get a fairly oily t-zone by midday so I want something that will not only help my MMU adhere better to my skin but also keep the oilies at bay for a good period of time.

TIA for any help you girls can provide!

Re: Alima primer powder vs. EM silk dusk
I was wondering the same thing.....

I'm currently using Alima's Balancing Primer in Deep and it's working well for me. (Haven't tried EM, yet.)

One last hing on Alima's Balancing Primer: I'm a MMM to light CCC and have tried this primer powder in Medium and Deep. There doesn't seem to be much of a noticable difference between the two, but in the end I felt that the Deep might be a touch less obvious on me. (I didn't want the PP to change my comlexion and foundation color.)
