Anyone using a face under makeup primer that helps cover age spots, and some hyperpigmentation.....I have been using Laura Gellers primer for years but it don't help with the discoloration I have since I got older

I use TATCHA liquid and solid (at different times) . I have been using this primer for years. Goes on  so smooth and you can use it alone-or under makeup . It evens out skin tone and leaves skin amazingly soft.

Facial primers are usually for smoothing the surface and blurring pores. They really don't conceal spots like that. You would use an actual concealer.  Better yet, up your skincare game to combat the hyperpigmentation with A good Vitamin C serum, glycolic acid, and Retin A.

I tried everything to even out the skin tone, since I got older the age spots keep coming, vit.c helps just a little but not enough.....Tactcha primer is a bit too expensive for me to spend on a primer......I have no idea what to use,    I wonder if elf green primer would work

Umm, I made my suggestions on what to use, but you seem to want to ignore them.  You could also use a red light therapy mask.  The ELF green primer is for minimizing overall redness, to even out skin tone. It won't conceal age spots.

I am already using all the stuff you have suggested, however, the spots are still with me ,just a little lighter.....I wonder if a dermatologist could get rid of them
