i use the primer by urban decay and it still does it. Maybe it is just my skin??

Well, maybe. Not to say there's anything wrong with your skin but some people don't like how minerals look on their skin perhaps because of their pores and fine lines. I remember disliking it cause it did the same for me, (when I wore it alone) magnified all my flaws and it wouldn't stay on at all!

Hopefully someone else has more advice....

I'm part of the cult here and am probably one of the palest people here hah. I wear the color Ivory and it matches my skin PERFECT! I use semi-matte and am in love with how it looks! I used to use BM, but the price was getting to me and since it had a more shimmery effect on my face it sometimes magnified my acne issues. I love EDM! <3

Nessa I know you mentioned Monistat as I just recently read several things about using it as a primer, can I ask where you can find it? I've looked at every local store here and was unable to find the particular one. Please don't tell me it's been discontinued or I'll cry! Is this (Monistat Soothing Care Chafing Relief Powder-Gel 1.5 oz (42 g)) the same formulation as people have spoken of? If so I'll just order it from there.

Yeah, that's the one! I bought mine at Target and I don't belive it's discontinued. It should be by the "feminine care" products lol. If you can't find it in a store I'm sure you can find it at drugstore.com. It's in a long, thin dark blue tube so the box is probably a small-ish, dark blue and rectangular. Hope that helps!

I'll have to go check out Target, that's one place I haven't looked yet. The description does help, thanks a lot
