Alright ladies, after a little bit of research I have narrowed down my primer choices to the following: Cover FX mattifying with anti acne treatment, Too Faced primed and poreless, Korres pomegranate mattifying primer, and NARS pro-prime pore refining oil free primer. I would love to know if anybody had any opinions on these products or any other suggestions! I have very oily skin, slight acne, and large pores, and those are all things I want to address with a high-end primer. Thanks in advance beauties!

I like the NARS Porefection mattifying primer. I have oily, mild acne prone skin, and it worked well for me. Didn't break me out. However, I don't have larges pores really so not sure if it did anything in that aspect, but it did control my oil :) (I'm not that oil, either, though) haha! I'm a crappy help. Hope you find the perfect one! If it were me I would go with cover fx because I hear how good they are for problematic skin.

Ohh I'm following this because I'm getting a new primer and have super oily acne prone skin and big pores I've been leaning between the two faces primed and pore less and the cover fx

CoverFX. I use it and give samples off it all the time and 90% of the people I give it too buy.

Yay! Thank you Erin and Renay! And Erin I recieved a sample of the cover FX mattifying BB cream and loved it so I'm really glad to hear you like their primer too!

I don't have oily skin or acne so I can't help much but I did accidentally buy the cover fx one a while back and gave it to a friend I was in school with at the time who suffered from really bad acne and had very oily skin and she was obsessed with it. She told me it's the best she's tried for her skin type so far

For sureee cover fx!! korres was not good and didn't work what so ever. too faced didn't combat my oily skin well enough. and I personally never tried NARS primer. another one to check out is hourglass mineral veil primer
