I have been using ELF's Mineral Face Primer lately and it's been good. I'm sure there is better out there though. For my eyes I absolutely LOVE MAC's Painterly Paint Pot. I don't use a primer for my lashes. :)
I need a primer! Maybe I'll try the ELF primer. Is it oil free? I use Mac Prep N Prime Lash and its really good...makes my eyelashes alot thicker looking w/ mascara.
It doesn't specify. I have acne-prone skin though and it hasn't broken me out yet. I've been using it for a month now. I did a full review on it on my blog: http://neutrakris.blogspot.com/2010... , if you care to check it out.
I just started using primers, but one I am enjoying right now is Covergirl & Olay Simply Ageless Serum Primer. Very nice product, a little pricey, but it works very well... Enjoy! :)
I use The Body Shop's Skin Primer Matte It. It's good for the face and the lips and it is great with or without makeup. It has this grainy feel to it that makes your skin feel really smooth. $14 and the tube is a pretty good size.
