Hi Everyone,
So Far in the Make up for Acne Prone Skin series,I have compiled Best Foundations, Best Compact Powders & Best Concealers For Oily/Acne Prone Skin.So today I will be compiling Best Primers For Oily-Acne Prone skin.
Primers are base make up product which improves longevity of make up,provides oil control and gives a smooth and matte finish.Primers are essentially silicone based products which fills up pores,skin imperfections and give a flawless base for foundations,concealers etc.Silicones/Dimethicones are mildly comedogenic and unless you have severe acne,you can get by these primers.So if you have high acne prone tendency or sensitive skin,I would advise you to go for patch test.So today I will be listing oil-free and non-comeodgenic primers for oily-acne prone skin.If you don't see the obvious primers like Benefit Porefessional and others in the list that would be because they are comedogenic.
