I have sensitive acne prone skin that is for the most part dry but still by end of the night pretty oily in my t zone. I currently am using the loreal magic perfecting base and not sure how I feel about it yet....Just wanted to get opinions of other primers that might work for my skin :) and how some may have worked for any of you. Thanks again Hope all is well!

Stay away from products that contain silicone. I love Sephora brands primer or Lorac oil free primer they make makeup appear flawless.

@Katie thank you for advice. I noticed that lorac i think came out with a new primer geared to sensitive skin and its oil free, i think i will certainly look into your suggestions thank you.

If you want a mattified even look try Sarah McNamaras it's at sephora. A bit pricy. You honestly need a pea size amount of it thought. It's awesome!

Why must it not have silicone and what's a good drugstore face primer? I too have combo/oily skin.

Thanks for all of your suggestions everyone :). @Eva silicone can work well with many people but people like me who have sensitive skin it can be irratating to the skin which I have experienced.

You should definitely try out the Clear Prep FX primer Nils suggested- it not only helps reduce shine and pore size but helps heal your skin/breakouts as well! Another one similar and cost-friendly is The Present primer . It clears the skin complexion and helps condition the skin so acne spots don't look or feel dry or flaky.You'll like it!
