Face primer is an absolute must for lasting and sleek makeup. Though, if the skin is dry or normal, it is way easier to find the right product, as almost any good primer will do the job. While it may be quite difficult to make your foundation stay, when the skin is oily and it was not prepared properly. That is why we prepared the list of the face primers that will fight oily skin.

Porefessional Face Primer by Benefit

This product is made not only to fight that oily shine, but it also minimizes pores at max. The special formula that employs vitamin E allows forming the protective shield over the skin. This makes the complexion even, on one hand, and allows the skin breathe, on the other. This airy primer not only excesses oil, but also protects skin from outside stress factors, such as wind, UV rays and temperature changes.
