primer

What primer would you recommend for acne prone oily skin with visible pores? I always get breakouts from wearing foundation and I am guessing it is because i don’t wear primer first. which one is good for my skin issues?

I recommend COVER FX Mattifying Primer With Anti-Acne Treatment.

I've been using the Milk Hydro Grip primer, it's been going really well! They have a mini so you can try it without having the get a big one. I was using a primer from YSL that has broken me out the two times I've started to use it again, and I picked this one because it's supposed to be healthy for your skin and it has worked really well on my oily skin. Normally I have to blot with powder multiple times a day, and the past couple days its been kind of uncessessary?!

I use it with the CoverFX powerplay foundation, it looks really nice and it has been super non-offensive to my current cystic break out.

@kavichal  Primer isn't going to keep you from breaking out. That's either a reaction to the foundation itself or you may need a better cleansing routine at night. If you don't already, I highly recommend double cleansing with an oil-based makeup remover followed by a gentle cream cleanser.

I would recommend MAC Mineralize Timecheck Lotion. I've been using it with great results. Also I recommend the Arbonne face primer, but I realize you can't get that at Sephora. Have heard great things about the green primer to cover acne by Smashbox, but I haven't used that one myself, only heard it recommended.
