this sucks

this makes my makeup seperate for some reason, I used this primer with a matte full coverage concealer/foundation and it starts to seperate around my cheeks and nose. I have a set skincare routine aswell but i definitely prefer the poreless putty primer over this. also $14.49 at shoppers is crazy work 😂

Great

I love this primer! The finish is smooth and matte. The packaging is simple but nice! The coverage is great and it doesn’t have a crazy scent. Definitely will be purchasing again.

Good product

It's a primer that's scentless, non-sticky, and quickly absorbed by the skin. It comes in a plastic tube that's easy to carry anywhere, which is beneficial because it makes your makeup last longer. It's very affordable, as it contains 26ml.

Impressive

This primer is seriously impressive! The e.l.f. Power Grip Matte Primer grips makeup like glue while keeping my skin shine-free all day. It has a slightly tacky texture that helps foundation stay put without sliding around, even in humidity. Pores look blurred, and the matte finish is flawless without drying my skin out. Bonus: it’s super affordable!

Good time to prime anytime

This primer is a good scent and feel good texture wise. The finish is good even though I don’t use prime often. It doesn’t take a lot to cover everywhere. The package is simple and minimal which I love.

Nice Grip

The e.l.f. Power Grip Matte Primer quickly became one of my go-to picks for keeping makeup in place—especially on humid days when shine likes to take over. It has that same sticky, gripping power as the original but with a shine-controlling matte finish, which is a game-changer for my oily zones. The gel texture feels light but dries down with just enough tackiness to lock in foundation like a magnet. What I really love is the way it smooths out pores without making my skin feel dry or tight. I’ve found it works best when I let it sit for a minute before applying foundation, giving it time to set properly. It definitely helps my makeup last longer, though if you prefer a softer hydration, you might like the original Power Grip better.
