These are my top primer picks as an MUA with over 15 years of experience. If you have combination skin, I recommend using products for both oily and dry skin. In the world of makeup, this technique is called patchwork. Simply add moisture where you need it and mattify where you usually get oily!! Yes, yes, makeup is expensive; look at it as an investment. High-quality products go a long way!! One item can last you for months!!
