Should I apply it before I put moisturizer on my face? It feels so dry and paper-y; I'd really like to put on moistureizer. Does it make that much of a difference?

All skincare first, then spf (if you use it), then primer.  Primer will seal in your skincare and make a smooth canvas for your foundation application.

It will tell you on the package insert but generally, it is the final step before you apply your makeup.  It prepares your skin for your skin so, of course, it matters.

I always use a primer...makes a world of difference in the application of your makeup.

for me, moisterizer, primer, then foundation.

Question:  which primer is the best?

@monicakm @Thanks! I will check it out...eBay can be dangerous!😊😊

My understganding is that primer is used  as a barrier, to keep makeup from soaking into your skin. If it makes you feel dry, for goodness' sake don't use it! Find another one, or skip it. Or, if you can skip the makeup, you won't need the primer!

thank you all!

That's subjective and usually requires some personal testing to accommodate your skin type, how it plays with your other skincare and foundation, if you want shimmer, tint, etc.    There's no one size fits all.
