I don't use any foundation because I don't need it for my skin, I only use Mac mineralize skin finish powder(deep dark) but I like how primer and tinted moisturizer gives me that finished look I have tried the following primers and they don't work for my oily skin: bare minerals prime time Sephora brand-forgot the name Sephora anti shine primer- works the best Rimmel fix and protect   I have only used: Maybelline BB cream as a tinted moisturizer. I am new to this make up stuff, I was use to just powder, mascara and lip gloss for years maybe an occasional eyeshadow

Have you tried Milk of Magnesia for oil control?

And as far as "BB creams" go, of the very few I have tried, this one works best for me:

I've been using MoM off and on for eons and it's never given me a problem. Many, many people use it without adverse effects.

HOWEVER comma as with everything else, YMMV. Every product mentioned in this thread has caused a breakout on somebody's face. MAC foundations alone have caused more breakouts than MoM ever will.

I've used anti-chaffing gel before and it worked as a primer.  I only stopped because I misplaced the tube.

thanks that is one of the reasons I have not used Milk of magnesia on my face... Does anyone know any other tinted moisturizers, it does not have to be a BB cream. I just used Maybelline one because it was light coverage but it makes me greasy.
