  • Game-Changer for My Makeup Routine!
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I recently tried the Power Elf Grip Primer Gel, and I’m absolutely in love with it! From the first application, I noticed how smooth and velvety my skin felt. The gel texture grips onto foundation perfectly, creating a flawless base that lasts all day without fading or sliding off. My makeup went on so easily, and my complexion looked more even and fresh throughout the day. What I love most is how lightweight and non-greasy it feels—it's perfect for my combination skin. It also helps to minimize the appearance of pores, which is a huge bonus. Plus, it's affordable and the bottle lasts a long time, making it a great value for the price. If you're looking for a primer that truly holds your makeup in place and gives you a smooth canvas, I highly recommend giving this one a try. Definitely a must-have in my makeup routine! ... show more

  • Holds your foundation great not sticky and lightweight
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have tried so many primers over the years. At all price points from high end to drugstore brands. A few have worked good or okay enough. This ELF primer is the only one I have used that I can say works great, better than great, like absolutely incredible. It just HOLDS your foundation, is lightweight, not sticky and not irritating. I'm 54 with sensitive combo skin, really sensitive. I live in a very hot and humid climate and usually my foundation melts away so quick, just sweats off. This combined with the ELF finishing spray was just the best combo for me. I made it through the whole workday inside and out and my Makeup Stayed with only 2 oil/sweat bolts and light powder touch ups. ... show more

  • ELF is probably my favorite brand now.
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I am pretty sure that everything I can say about this primer has been said before. It is a game changer in the world of foundation. It literally sticks your foundation to your skin and makes all of your makeup last so much longer. And my foundation looks smoother. It is amazing. I have never tried the brand that ELF duped, but I don't see how it could be better than this. Plus the price is fantastic. I regret waiting to try it as long as I have but I have always used silicone primers. I want to try the one with niacinamide next. I cannot recommend this enough. ... show more

  • good (i think..)
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I honestly don't know how well it works since I never had a BIG issue with my makeup not staying on, but I THINK my makeup has been staying on longer... I honestly don't know. I like how one pump adequately covers my face, and I like how it doesn't make my face sticky and tacky to an extreme degree

  • Love how it's hydrating!
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I LOVE this primer! I've been struggling to find products for my face that don't make me look or feel dry with my already dry skin. The only downside is, it doesn't last long at all for me since I wear makeup daily. I probably have to purchase this monthly because the tube is so small. But it is hydrating and I love it!!! ... show more

  • Works Well & Isn't Expensive
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really like the way this primer performs. I have purchased the Lancome Pro Base Make-up Primer twice before, once at the store and once via Amazon. It is expensive and doesn't perform nearly as well as this e.l.f. primer. By the end of the day, my make-up seems to have soaked into to my skin a bit, but it still looks okay and covers most of my rosacea. The Lancome product didn't grab my make-up well and by the end of the day, my make-up was filling my pores and looked worn away on the surface of my skin. I'll buy this e.l.f. primer again. ... show more

  • Good quality
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This product will forever stay in my makeup routine. Before my application of my elf grip primer, I wash my face in order for the primer to stick. The foundation I apply after placing the primer (I leave the primer to dry for a few seconds) leaves a glowing and not cakey appearance. It lasts for a good while for when I go to work. ... show more

  • ELF Primer
Size: 0.81 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Not to bad of a primer if you're looking for a tacky primer that grips and holds your makeup for several hours. The consistency is almost serum like as opposed to a "gel", which is fine because it is quite easy to apply and glides on effortlessly. Once it's on the recommendation is to let it dry for roughly half a minute prior to using complexion makeup products. After the dry down the facial canvas is left with a slightly tacky surface which does in fact aid in longer wear time. It does remain tacky throughout the day and hair flyaways have a tendency to stick to the face, also after several hours of wear it starts to look a bit oily and breaks down. If you're out n about you may want to do a quick touch-up or give your face a light dusting of powder. This is the point where you start getting that feeling that all you want to do is get home and wash your face ~ at least this is how I felt and what I experienced. I gave this ELF PRIMER a shot because I wanted to see how well it helped the staying power of my makeup, and it definitely does increase wear time. Unfortunately, there's zero blurring capabilities and this is a must have feature for me. I applied the primer all over my face and let it dry down the recommended time and then went in and applied my blurring primer in the areas where I needed it the most, then proceeded with complexion application. End result with both primers gave me a nice end result. Overall, the primer works as intended. I'm less than thrilled with the break down after several hours and definitely not fond of my hair sticking to my face or the stray eyelash that dances on my face until it gets stuck. I will use it on the days I need staying power, aside from those days I will stick with my blurring primer for a more flawless finish. ... show more
