Airbrush primers...recommendations?

5 replies

I'm not into BB creams as I prefer to use a primer first and then proper foundation on top.

I've been using no.7 Airbrush Away which I do like...but I'm running out and wonder if I should try another brand. What ones have worked for you?

I have combo/oily skin, large pores, fine lines, and uneven skin tone and dark circles uner eyes. I'm 42. My foundation deals with the uneven skin tone and I don't find anything created especially for oily skin works so just tend to blot my face during the day!

What I want is a wrinkle minimiser, something to put under my eyes to improve the dark circles/lines/overall appearance, and general face uplifter!

I've tried nano blur and didn't like it at all!

You need lanacane anti chaff gel. 6 quid from Boots and same ingredients as the expensive smash box one.

I've used loads of primers and this is the best imo.

At first I thought you'd got the wrong thread there Dame or lost the plot slightly but having looked it up I can see this has been hailed as an excellent primer. I just need to get over the fact that it is anti-chaffing gel. And pretend it cost £40 and imagine it in a posh box. Worth a try for 6 quid though, thanks for that.

maybeline 'baby skin' primer is lovely. Discovered it this week, magically soft skin and fantastic base for concealer etc.

Make up artists have been using it for years - honestly it's fab stuff Grin

I know its not really a primer but I fine Clinique city block SPF 25 (I think) great. I was originally using it as sun protection but found make up sits really well on it. I also like the smash box and am currently building up the courage to try out the lanacane I bought after recommendation on another thread!Grin
