Hey guys! I have really oily skin and my Almay Blemisheal foundation looks super oily on my skin. Also, I want to invest in a cheap face primer that works well. Do you have any suggestions? Do you think my foundation will work if I use a primer or what product should I get. I need cheap, good quality products. Thank you in advance!

The Fit Me is a good choice. I buy the E.l.f. primer, specifically the acne control one since I'm really bad with acne. Both products work great.

I agree with @Charli, if you're super oily the Loreal Infallible Pro matte would be perfect for you. Their shade range runs pretty yellow so I hope you're able to find a proper match. For primer I'd like to suggest a lightweight oil-free moisturizer/ a mattifying moisturizer. I find most drugstore primers are loaded with silicone and don't do much for oily skin except make it more oily throughout the day. Plus the Loreal foundation will go on smoothly and not look cakey on hydrated skin. I've heard good things about the Pixie by Petra skindrink moisturizer from Target.

I googled "mattifying moisturizers from the drugstore" this one came up from the first article. It's sold at Ulta and it's only $7 :)

Thank you guys so much! I recently started using NYX primer spray and I'm loving the results I'm getting. Once I run out of it I'll have to try your suggestions! :)
