Good primer for oily skin???

[cr8zy4MAC]

Sephora sells a product made by Murad. It is a mattifying moisturizer/primer. It also has a physical sunscreen. It will help control oil production for up to eight hours.

Hi, the most important factor i take into consideration when deciding a suitable face primer for oily skin like mine are:

- ability to hold foundation and makeup for long hours
- does not feel greasy
- does not cause foundation to oxidize

You may try 'Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer' or 'Mary Kay Foundation Primer'.

I have tried maybe 10 different primers and nothing worked for my skin

Which ones have you tried? What foundation do you use afterwards? What are you using for moisturizer, if anything?

I dont remember the names but I've tried ones from Mac, Smashbox, Makeup Forever, Shiseido, Boscia and a few others. I got a sample of one from Estee Lauder and I tried it this morning. So far so good. I have been using Lancome Teint Idole but today I'm testing Estee Lauder Double Wear. For cleansing and moisturizing, I use Clinique products for oily skin.

Have you tried mac prep and prime natural radiance. It's amazing!

No, I'll get a sample this weekend. Mac's other primers did nothing for me

I have been using a setting spray by Skindinavia. Ive been using it for a few days. I ordered a small size and I keep it in my bag to touch up at work.

You should try using Urban Decay Oil Slick as a primer. Shake the bottle, spritz your face and apply your foundation as usual. I swear by this!

Avon, Magix face perfector works for me. It's kinda powdery and white, but absorbs well, and my skin feels smoother instantly.
