While the topical retinol is elping clear my acne it is givingmy nose some serious flakies, the chin and forehead get some too

. I cant find a silicone face primer that doesnt have something in it i react to. So im thinking of simpler alternatives. Does anyone know what kinds of sillicone make good face primers? I was thinking maybe a hair serum or "intimate" lubricant might be comprable with less ingredients especially the latter.

Going to cross post at TBB but we get more traffic here. Thanks

So you get a timely reply from someone - thanks to the lovely Google, I found this forum with a thread discussing the same thing. So it probably is possible! I don't personally use primers...or silicone lubricants for that matter LOL. Looks like Monistat anti-chafing gel is a good option for some (with oily skins)...maybe that's a start?

Ooh, and this one discussing the Monistat. Perhaps you could mix it with a cream if it wasn't good enough by itself?
