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 😂

Power Grip matte primer ✨️💗
It's like the famous sticky primer that makes the foundation adhere better, but this new version is matte, it fills your pores and prevents facial oil from coming out quickly. Overall, I really liked the finish and the duration it gave me. I would recommend it and use it again 💗 10/10 packaging its practical

Very good
Perfect matte natural finish! I hate when my face gets oily and this matte primer helps with that! You should combine it with a light weight foundation, if the foundation is also matte the makeup will be too dry. So try to find a balance

Primer of the year ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The name of this product lives up to the hype! It’s tacky but not sticky to the point where your makeup doesn’t go on smoothly. It helps make your base smooth and achieve that full coverage look!

Great Product
I've been using the e.l.f. Power Grip Matte Primer for a few weeks now, and I’m seriously impressed. It has a slightly tacky texture that really grips my foundation, helping it stay put throughout long days—even in humid weather. Unlike some mattifying primers that feel drying, this one keeps my skin looking smooth and fresh without turning flaky or tight. My T-zone stays noticeably less shiny, and my makeup doesn’t slide off by midday anymore. For the price, it performs like a high-end product. This is officially a staple in my routine!
