Funny this should come up today. Last night I stumbled on some articles/blogs about people with acne and/or oily skin using Milk of Magnesia as a primer. Apparently it dries to a matte finish and remains that way for several hours.

Hi!

Milk of Magnesia?? Really??? Now I have to say I never expected that LOL!!

I know, me either! I'm half tempted to give it a try.

Skinn Cosmetics Orchid Gel. My sensitive, normal-to-oily skin LOVES it. This is a good kit to get:

And if you want to try both the Orchid Gel and a great microdermabrasion treatment..this is a good kit:

Me too--what mandysays{#emotions_dlg.laugh} I use Skinn over my night time serums and such---keeps them on my face and not my pillow!!! Got that tip from Laura Gellar.

Rimmel Stay Matte Primer and Black Radiance Complexion Perfection Shine Control Primer. I've been meaning to give Milk of Magnesia a whirl.

Mally's perfect prep Poreless primer. I love it! It feels good, looks good and lasts forever. It's a moussey gel like consistency.

Peter Thomas Roth used to make a mattifying primer that was very good......I haven't used it in a while but I am sure he still makes it. My daughter and I both loved it!!!!!!!
