I applied for the first time today and still got oily :/. I only put a little bit on my tzone.

Awe man! I guess my skin is too oily even for a base that claims to be mattifying. Thank you for the input Brittany!

No!! Not at all sarcasm and sarcastic people make me cringe, I apologize if it came off that way.

Did you let it dry on your face before applying foundation?

I was a bit in a rush this morning so not really. Also this morning was my first time using it, I don't know if that makes a difference.

I use it and it works great on me! I put it all over and then use Estée Lauder double wear foundation.

@Brittany ahh that gives me hope! What is your skin type like and do you apply it with your fingers or a brush?

My skin is a little oily, not that bad though. I used to use Mac studio fix foundation, but I like Estée Lauder double wear so much better! I also use Mac studio fix concealer and Estée Lauder face cream. Sometimes I even use benefit porefessional just on the skin to the right and left of my nose because my pores look bigger there, and I usually apply everything with my fingers! I use a foundation brush sometimes, but I prefer my fingers.

My mother uses Victoria Secret's primer and it really works on her, with a natural look. You can try it. Hope it help.

I have this product! And when I put it on I was also oily on my face, yet it is now my favourite product, I found that using little moisturiser beforehand helps and really blend in the product and putting makeup over it quickly :)

I love Avons Primer. I think it's called Magix make up base. It's cream to powder so it mattifies my oily skin. (I can't spell sorry) I would also recommend the Real Techniques brush. It works wonders on my No7 foundation (Different product) Hope that helps. x

Thank you Brittany, Pryscila, Yasmine, and Emma!! I appreciate the wonderful suggestions and I will try out those products but I don't want to give up on No7 primer yet! Yasmine do you apply with your fingers and do you put it all over your face?
