i want to invest in a good primer.
Now i know everyone will say MAC and Bobbi Brown.
But apart from MAC and BB what other good and more economical primers are there?
Thankyou!

Well Alvena, i read here somewhere that Anti Chafing Gel (like Monistat or Lanacane) has the same ingredients in it as SmashBox Primer.... and it's a fraction of the price (that's about as economical as you can get!)...I've repeated this like a gazillion times because i want a guppan to try it before i go and buy it... 
Currently, i use YSL Top Secret Flash Radiance... works really well, and i much prefer it to Mac Prep and Prime.

Alvena, Smashbox is available in the UK, but it's sold under the name "Lanacane"...
