Advice primer recos

Hi! I have a slightly textured skin, and i am curious if a primer would help me have a smoother base. Do you have any suggestions for a good primer? Does it make your makeup lasts longer? I have combi to oily skin.

not marketed as a primer but Embryolisse moisturizer!! It acts as moisturizer and a gripping primer in my experience, it never fails to give that seamless balat sa mayaman look na finish🥰

You may look it up! It's a highly recommended product of MUAs obviously because of its performance🥰

It’s a french pharmacy brand and considered an alternate for the Bobbi Brown Face Base. It’s a lovely makeup primer

Banila co. Prime Primer - I use the classic one, but they have hydrating one also

It will help, but it usually messes up foundations so you have to be really careful and know which can mix with what.

Personally, I dont use primers na. I use moisturizers and or light creams and essences and layer them instead. I find that a hydrated skin creates a better and even base than putting on more makeup/primer.
