e.l.f.Power Grip Matte Primer, Gel-Based & Hydrating Face Primer For Smoothing Skin & Gripping Makeup, Moisturizes & Primes, Vegan & Cruelty-Free

I love the elf grip primers (regular blue and pink) but am on the more oily end of the combination skin spectrum. I tried this primer that I don’t always see in stores right before realizing a lot of my oiliness would be helped via a pressed powder and powder puff instead of powder with a brush. But overall the combo of this primer (I use on my face and eyelids) and my usual liquid foundation routine plus baked/pressed in (powder puff) powder helps lock my makeup in all day.I work in a hot/dryer part of California. I work remotely for most of rhe weekday mornings and at a bar four nights a week. My long days I wear makeup from 9am-12am and this primer along with a mini powder puff and blotting powder In my work bag helps keep the oiliness at bay!

Obsessed! It has an interesting consistency but it works! I’m an oily skin girly (I’ve tried an TON of primer products on the market) and this primer helps mattify my skin and set my makeup up for all day success !

I recently tried the e.l.f. Matte Power Grip Primer and overall, I’m pretty happy with it! The formula is noticeably thicker than the original Power Grip, which took a little getting used to during application. It spreads well but feels a bit heavier on the skin at first.It’s also not quite as tacky as the regular version, so the grip isn't as intense — but it still holds makeup in place nicely throughout the day, especially for my combo-to-oily skin. I do appreciate the matte finish, which helps keep shine under control.All in all, it’s a solid product if you're looking for a mattifying primer with decent staying power. Just know it's a bit different from the original!

The only primer I will use. It is sticky and matte. It keeps my makeup lasting all day long.

Super skeptical at first, but works well! I use this to help keep my makeup from rubbing off underneath my OR mask. It absolutely works & it keeps my face slightly more matte than normal.

So far this primer is just okay. It’s very thick and goes on tacky and when it dries your skin feels a bit tight. I haven’t noticed any difference in my makeup staying put longer, so I really can’t say this has made much of an impact in that regard. I did notice that this helped my CC cream go on smoother and evenly, so that is a plus. Overall it’s nothing special, but it’s not terrible either.

Love love love!!!!Not expensive but gives expensive energy!

LOVE. great product for a base, keeps makeup stuck down all day. nice matte formula that doesn't leave your base looking dull. repurchased many times and will continue to.
