Can anyone recommend a primer with spf?  I would like to save a step with my morning make up!   Thanks!

I use Dr. Denese day cream which is a moisturizer, spf and light foundatio base for me. I'll swipe some Balance and Brighton over it on days when I'm having "issues ' and my mascara and I can get out the door. On days when I have a little more time, I just add a little bit of dream cream or argan oil in the day cream and apply more of my traditional makeup. I wish I had discovered this item when I had to be in the office for those early am meetings.

I have had lots of skin cancers and must use a sunblock winter and summer. I think most dermatologists say you must use a sunscreen in addition to any in primers or makeup. The latter just don't offer enough protection.

Missha BB Boomer.  Nice stuff and more of a lotion texture so it's not greasy.  One pump is plenty for the entire face.  I use it when I'm wearing either BB cream or just a powdered foundation.  It also has crushed pink pearl powder that gives a pretty brightening effect.  I jumped around trying assorted primers, but once I found this one I stopped shopping.

You can't just rely on a primer with SPF for sunscreen protection.  You would have to use more than normal of the primer and then your face would be greasy.  Don't take a chance with getting skin cancer.  Even if my foundation says it has SPF I always use a moisturizer with sunscreen.

I love Bare Minerals tinted primer with SPF 30. I have Combo skin with oily t zone and it goes on matte and stays matte all day. There are at least 3 shades to choose from.

Bare Minerals tinted primer with SPF 30 ... it's very good and lasts a long time.

Hi Virgosun 

I have oily skin , so I really like Coola Spf matte finish sunscreen . i use it as my primer . It  is a mineral based suncreen . It has a matte finish and has anti-oxidants in it . I find it works beautifully under both mineral powder foundations as well as liquid ones

good luck in your search

@marmarbrooklyn I thought this product would make a good primer too! It has the same feel on the skin as most primers but the good thing about it is is a true sunscreen so you get real protection from it, unlike most traditional primers.

Hi Happydaze 

At 52 I still have oily acne prone skin .Over the years I have had trouble finding a good suncreen that did not break me out , primers while they look good always clogged my pores . Coola is perfectbecause it is a sunscreen , yet has they smooth finish like a primer . It also contains anti-oxidants too
