    I'd be interested to know too. Dermalogica have a new primer out which feels nice on my hand!

    Make up forever primers are good, expensive mind but good.

    I've two, the smoothing and mattifying ones. I love the mattifying one but a mistake I made in the past is using too much, you only need a teeny tiny amount otherwise foundation won't sit well over it.

    They have a moisturising/nourishing/hydrating one too, never tried them so no idea what they are like but if they're anything like the ones I have, I recommend them.

    I only use primers for nights out etc, as I wear Image Prevention+ SPF 50 under my make up on a daily basis and I don't find that I need a primer with that.

    I like the classic smashbox one or the lancome one - both i find work best if applied with a stippling brush and left to soak in for a few mins before applying foundation.

    Smashbox do a hydrating primer that I find really good on my super dry and sensitive skin.

    This isn't Supposed to be a primer but does the job of one while also being a serum

    I use la Roche posay cicaplast when I feel I need a primer

    I know it's late, but I use the Laura Mercier hydrating primer and I love it.
