The Best Cruely Free Primer For Oily Skin!

Mar 11, 2013

I use milk of magnesia under my primers to keep my skin matte. It does, BUT my foundation still slides all over my face. I've tried Tarte Poreless, Too Faced Primed and Poreless, Bare Minerals primer, Fyrinnae Silica Gel, and Tarte Flawless. I don't have money to keep buying primers that don't work. I also tired using the milk of magnesia over my primer, and that made my foundation slide even worse. Please only give cruelty free suggestions. High or Low end. Thank you!

I heard urban decays deslick works good? I have VERY oily skin and have been thinking about trying it.

I've thought about it. I think I'm just going to buy primers in full size, and if they don't work take them back to Sephora. Instead of buying sample packs and things I can't return. It's such a waste.

Urban Decays deslick helps. My skin is very oily and normally my foundation slides off half way through my day but deslick keeps it there for another couple hours. It's not a miracle product but instead of coming off at lunch it'll slide off when I get home from school which is nicer.

Oh and you could try Goshs primer! They're cruelty free. I find it helps my foundation stay a bit better but I haven't tried many other face primers.

Thanks, I'll look that one up, Megan. I'm so frustrated because everything stays but my foundation and mascara after 4 hours.
