OWant smooth and beautiful make-up application? The most important step is to prep your skin with a primer that suits your skin type. To combat oiliness and greasiness, use a primer on your T-zone or anywhere that produces more oil. That way, you are mattifying those areas, so you’ll get a clean and smooth canvas to work on later.
Here we have a few primers that you should consider if you have combination skin.
Acne on the face is such a horrible sight. However, the Cover FX Mattifying Primer is equipped with an anti-acne treatment of 1% Salicylic Acid to prevent and clear acne. For someone with combination skin, you’ll need to use an oil-free gel primer to avoid feeling oily throughout the day.
