In search of a primer that I won’t react to

[Askinvillarblues]

I have rosacea which is mostly under control through a combination of Elemis/Dr Jartt products and avoiding red wine etc. I would really like to find a decent primer for under my foundation but seem to react to everything I try. I’ve tried the Elemis one, Bobbi Brown, Il Makiage (this was disastrous and gave me a massive flare up although the foundation seems ok), Smashbox, Revolution… Does anyone have any suggestions of anything that might work please or shall I just give up? I think it may either be the silicone element or lavender in the product (or something similar) that I’m reacting to.

I've recently got a great illuminating primer from wilkinsons. Can't remember the brand name but the bottle is white with a pink lid.

No idea if you'll react though I have rosesca too and it doesn't make it worse for me.

I don't have rosacea, but I'm prone to very dry and sensitive skin on my face. I recently tried a primer from Aldi which I love - black box, silver lettering on it, I wish I could remember the name but it's usually on a stand with a mascara that I THINK is a Benefit dupe.

It's so nice, it makes my forehead wrinkles a lot less prominent and it doesn't make the dry, flaky bits near my nose sore, like a lot of primers do. It's a fiver, so possibly worth a try?
