Hi lovelies, I need some help in picking a lip primer. I have used the one from Two Faced with no results and the Clear lip pencil from Sephora, but it was just so drying. I really want to wear my YSL Peach Passion, but it is just too slippery and I love the color. Any advice I'd much appreciated!

I also have the Too Faced Lip Primer and find it really drying.. Sometimes I use a lip scrub and then put lip balm on and dab it off a bit prior to using the lip primer. Simply because I don't want to waste something I paid for haha.
I tried the Bite Lip Liner before, too, and it was actually really nice! I haven't used it too much but it seemed to work really well the time that I did... Maybe you could give that one a shot?

Thank you so very much for your advice! I most definitely will try the tip and pick up the Bite!

I really hope it works for you! I know how hard it can be to have to spend hundreds of dollars trying to figure out that one perfect product that'll work!

I also always wear lip balm (usually aquaphor) before lip primer. I put it on when I start my makeup so it can sink in. I loved UD's lip primer but they discontinued it. It wasn't drying. I also like TF's primer, but it can be a bit drying (I think especially if worn with a drying lipstick). Both Urban Decay and Lipstick Queen make clear pencil liners that I often just use on my entire lips as primers. Both of those work really well, too.

They look SO pretty! But wayyyy out of my pay bracket

Thanks for the suggestions! it looks like I will pick up the TF primer as well! I didn't think or even know about the Aquaphor trick and I have some in my medicine cabinet!
