I am pretty oily every where except my forehead, around my nose I am dry.
What are your favorite primers/foundations for this skin type? Really the only primer I have used for my face is porefessional, and I don't think that is right for me. Kinda experimenting wanna hear your thoughts ladies please helP!

I like lancome la base pro, smashbox original photo finish primer, rimmel stay matte primer.

Foundations I love are mac prolong wear, lancome teint idole ultra, dior star, urban decay naked skin, smashbox liquid halo and estee Lauder double wear but I only wear that for special occasions when I want my foundation to stay in place for ten plus hours.

I've oily combo skin with dry patches around my nose and between eyebrows for reference and they are the products that work for me. I would recommend getting samples of a few foundations and primers to see what works best for you :-)

I really like the Hourglass primer and the MUFE primers.
And for foundation I swear by RCMA color process foundation.
Ps. Porefessionals isnt actually a primer, its a pore perfecting balm, so it won't help with oil or the staying power of your makeup
