Once you start using a primer that best suits your face and skin type, you won’t be able to resist it. Here is a list of some of the best primers that drugstore makeup brands have to offer;

Rimmel – Stay Matte Primer

This primer is an all-time favorite of our oily girls. It has a very lightweight formula that feels very comfortable on the skin. It minimizes pores and prevents shine to come through your makeup for up to 8 hours. Rimmel stay matte primer also makes your makeup wear for a very long time. No matter how wonderfully it works for oily girls, this primer might not work for girls with very dry skin.

The product absorbs right into the face very quickly to give your skin a blurred and extremely soft appearance. It is best suited for oily skin people as it mattifies the look. Infallible Mattifying Primer gives a velvet finish. Ľoréal has recently upgraded the formula and they have come up with the new Infallible Pro-Matte Lock Primer.
