Primers
Your makeup will stick so well and not budge all day. The best dupe for milk makeup primer.
e.l.f. Power Grip Face Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics
Very blurring and smoothing. Interchangeable with elf putty primer in my opinion.
NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Angel Veil Skin …
Used this before I found out about the putty primer. Not as blurring but definitely moisturizing. Wouldn’t recommend for oily skin.
Poreless Face Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics
A really good primer that feels hydrating. Blurs pores and feels amazing on skin.

Just like the foundation WILL NOT BUDGE. Gotta blend it out a bit quick but I love it. What I’m using currently.
