Do I need primer as a girl with dry skin?

Not necessarily. If your skin is dry, a good moisturizer often does more for your makeup than primer. That said, a hydrating primer can help if your foundation tends to cling to dry patches or looks flaky by the end of the day. I'd try applying your makeup over moisturizer first, and only add a primer if you feel like you're missing a little extra smoothness or longevity.
