I have very pale, oily, acne-prone skin. I have slight redness on my chin and jaw area from old acne marks (they are flat, red marks, but very noticeable bc I am so pale.)

***I do NOT wear foundation*** or pressed (colored) powders. I just apply a clear sunscreen first, then concealer, primer, and a lightweight, translucent finishing powder (to reduce shine.)

So what are the best sheer, lightweight primers to minimize redness (and pores) without clogging pores or making my face shinier/oilier? (blackheads are a big problem for me as well)...

** I should note that I ONLY use cruelty-free products, & the following brands test all on animals... (so these are out...)

- MAC
- Bobbi Brown
- Shiseido
- Shu Uemura
- Simple
- SK-II
- Dolce & Gabbana
- Estee Lauder
- and most drugstore brands...

THANKS!
