The primer is oil free and water based which is another bonus for oily skin. What the primer essentially does is control shine and ensure minimal oil as your day progresses.
For a start to every foundation application I recommend using the Prime Time Oil Control Primer, which helps to keep your foundation lasting longer throughout the day and giving in a smooth finish while minimizing pore visibility.

It sounds a little funny when I tell people I'm wearing HD makeup but there really is a distinction, especially when making yourself camera ready.
I personally have oily skin so I always try to look for a product that is oil-free such as Make Up Forever's HD foundation. The coverage is quite on the heavy side but not something that makes your face look to "cakey" or even feel that way. What I do recommend to get a flawless finish using this foundation is using the right brush and the one I stand by is the MAC 187 (which I will review in another segment). The brush when applying the HD foundation in a buffing motion will ensure total coverage that is almost invisible to the camera that you can ensure maximum coverage.
Even if your not planning on being in front of a camera (ie: at a party) I would 100% recommend this foundation for everyday usage especially if you have skin that is multi-toned and you want that even and flawless look.
Make Up Forever's HD Foundation is pricey but a bottle does last me three months and I use two pumps a day (I use it almost 6 times a week) which gives me at least 12 hours of coverage.
Ladies & Gents if you want good foundation, look no further.
