Right now I'm using neutrogena oil free moisturizer which I love and No7 beautifully matte make up base which I'm trying to get the hang of. What are y'alls favorites?

Actually try chaffing gel.. It works pretty well. Also milk of magnesia. If you want to stick with brand names smashbox has a "light" primer which is oil free and works great. Make up forever has a "light" oil free version and it works amazing as well.
