Flawless base
I always have issues with fining which primer works best with my skin/skincare but this one made my base look so flawless. There was no caked up feeling that certain “heavy duty” primers give, it was just enough grip to ensure my base looked its best until I took it off. 10/10 recommend.

Didn’t work on my normal skin
I have a normal skin type that is neither too oily or too dry. I even tested this travel size primer in a more hot and humid environment, assuming my skin might be slightly more oily. Unfortunately, this primer made my skin very flaky and dry. My makeup did not stay put due to it. I noticed most of the dryness was around my nose and mouth. I much prefer the other grip primers, especially the mint one! I wish this would have worked better for me like it did for others!

Pore perfecting
I love to use the primer as a combination skin and it reduces the appearance of pores. I loved how it felt on my skin, just the right amount of grip to keep my makeup in place. I received this product for free from Topbox Marketing for testing and review purposes.

This is so smooth and the texture is a lot better than their sticky primers. Worked for my normal skin type I was worried it would be too drying

YES!
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a primer that is actually matte. It held up well and provided a smooth base for the rest of my makeup routine.

Works great!
When I used this I received so many compliments on my make up and was told how smooth it looked (only difference from my usual routine was the primer) My makeup lasted literally all day long, which is a huge plus. For reference I have a combination of dry/oily skin.

Long-Lasting & Matte All Day!
I really enjoyed using the e.l.f. Power Grip Matte Primer! It goes on smoothly, grips my makeup perfectly, and keeps everything in place all day. I love the matte finish—it helps control shine without drying out my skin. My foundation looked flawless and stayed put, even in heat and humidity. For the price, this primer is a total win!
