Combination dry skin with acne.   KOREAN AND JAPANESE BRANDS VS EUROPEAN AND US PRODUCTS   These four face primers have a big gap on price. I have used them for a long period. Each of them has different functions and performance. I cannot wait to share with you! 1.     CPB SPF 20++ clé de peau BEAUTÉ - Correcting Cream Veil SPF 21 The newest try one among these four, but I have been applying it for one month. Special for dry and desert skin. Texture: creamy white with hydrated feeling. If you are oil skin, try to avoid it. You will feel too oily to spread the primer evenly. Price: $80 Advantage: moisturizing and pigmentation. It can help me to brighten my skin tone. Disadvantage: low SPF and poor fluidity.   2.     LANEIGE SPF22++ LANEIGE - Skin Veil Base SPF25 PA++ Two type can be chosen. One is green for improving the problems of skin sensitivity and redness. I prefer purple one. This series is applicable for dull and shallow skin. However! This one is the worst among these four! DO NOT BUY IT! Texture: not very thick but not moisturizing. After applying, my skin tone is looked like not natural. You have to do a great job on previous moisturizing work. I don’t like it. Price: $20 Advantage: cheap Disadvantage: cannot keep the moisture of skin and I got new acne on my chin due to this primer.   3.     CHANTECAILLE SPF 45 PA+++ CHANTECAILLE - Ultra Sun Protection Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 45 Primer Shake the tube before using it to mix all ingredients together. Texture: it makes us feel oil when squeeze them out. However, this product is oil-free formula. No color and no fragrance. It can form 1-2mm protective film on my skin from my observation. Price:$95 Advantage: dry skin will love it! Disadvantage: high price and low cost performance. I can run out of one by six months.   4.     MAC MAC - Strobe Cream I have introduced this product for many times. I love it because it’s multi-functional primer which gives me the brightening and smoothest appearance. The using method is different from previous three. I always mix them with my foundation. The effect is much more amazing and natural than using alone. Price:$35 Advantage: very durable. Mix with foundation can create more surprise. Disadvantage: sheer primer texture. Many people don’t like it.   Conclude, the face primer ranking is CPB,CHANTECAILLE, MAC, LANEIGE.  

1) Avène Very High Protection Mineral Lotion SPF 30+ PA+++ It's a safe, tolerable, sweatproof, waterproof physical sunscreen suitable for those who are photosensitive, prone to sunburn, or work long hours outdoors. You can feel it forming a protective layer on the skin fast, and it's non-greasy. 2) Eau Thermale Avène Day Protector UV EX SPF 30 PA+++ This is an antioxidant sunscreen which is soothing, hydrating, moisturizing, nourishing and is absorbed by the skin easily, but it doesn't give a touch-up effect. 3) CHANTECAILLE Ultra Sun Protection SPF 45 PA ++ Anti-Glycation Primer This is the most expensive sunscreen I have bought so far. It's infused with soothing and antioxidant botanicals, including cherry blossom, lemon balm and white tea extract. It's oil-free and provides a matte finish. Shake well before use, then squeeze a one dollar coin-size onto your palm and press it onto the face. It's a little bit greasy and it dries on the skin in just a few hours, especially in winter.
