HELP! Primer needed.....

I NEED Help!

Just far to many to work my way through and I'm already spending a fortune on different foundations

I'm desperately searching for a Primer and really struggling - just don't know what to try!

Obviously I want my makeup to last at least the working day, but my main concern is that I want to try and even out my complexion.

I have issues with my pores and suffer from abit of redness around my nose. I would say I have dry to combination type skin. The usual rubbish of a shiney nose and chin but with the added joy of dryness on both as well (this has really improved recently so I don't want something to affect this).

So I was hoping that someone out there may be able to point me in the right direction.
Any suggestions Welcome!

I think you should give L'oreal Studio Secrets Anti-Redness primer a go. I have the one for dull skin and love it. Will helpfully sort out the redness around your nose and even your skin tone out, like it does mine.

i have been using the L'Oreal studio secrets primer for a while now, i do love it BUT its best on my under eyes and the fine lines around my nose and mouth area. I wouldn't say its the best for an all over primer. I think the make up forever matte primer is good. I have heard alot about it. Not sure if they UK sell it but look into that one! :D

Hey great blog!~I NEED to find a good primer! I'm so picky and don't like heavy products for primers!~

Let me preface by saying I have not tried this one yet but plan to soon...the mineral face primer by e.l.f. I've loved almost everything I've ever tried by them, which is a LOT of stuff, and I'm excited to try it! It will barely cut into your wallet at all even if you don't like it! It's only $6. It has a LOT less ingredients than most primers, certainly less than the drugstore ones, which I'd think would reduce your chances of irritation.

i've tried many in search of a great one.
I have combination skin, oily and dry areas.
A great one is smashbox, i bought the regular one but a bit greasy for me, great for normal skin
i bought the other one, for greasy one and it is fab about £28 but worth it, so i recommend this one
hope this helps you
let me know if you decide on buying and what is your opinion
