  • Best Face Primer
I originally bought this primer at a beauty store. I was running low and was happy to find it on Amazon. I'm in my 40's and my skin has become dry, making foundation flaky looking. I like that this primer hydrates even more besides my normal cream. It has a little bit of tack to it, to keep foundation looking fresh. I love the smell of it as well. It's affordable as well! Works for me! ... show more

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Must-Have Makeup Primer!
I’ve tried my fair share of makeup primers, but this one truly stands out. From the moment I applied it, I noticed how smooth and lightweight it felt on my skin. It creates the perfect canvas for foundation—blurring pores, reducing shine in my T-zone, and giving my makeup serious staying power. Even after a long day, my makeup looked fresh with minimal touch-ups. It didn’t pill, didn’t feel greasy, and most importantly, didn’t clog my pores or cause breakouts (which is rare for my combination skin). It also worked beautifully under both matte and dewy foundations. Whether you’re prepping for a long day at work or a night out, this primer holds everything in place without feeling heavy. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their makeup ... show more

  • Good value
I like this product. The price is great and it's hydrating. I do wish it had a tad more grip but overall I'm pleased. Would purchase again

  • Thumbs up primer
I read the reviews and wanted to try the primer. The scent of the primer smells amazing. I think it works well; helps to keep my eyebrows set, last all day and is not sticky. For reference I am mid 40s and I have typical skin- not too oily or dry and I don’t have acne. If that helps in your decision of the product. I’ve been using it for a couple of months. I like it and I would recommend it. I will buy it for my friend’s gifts. It feels refreshing. ... show more

  • Porefessional/ELF Power Grip DUPE
I used to use the benefit gel-based porefessional primer before they discontinued it 💔💔💔💔 but this is definitely the next best thing and for a fraction of the price. Also a good dupe for the elf power grip primer. Is perfect for my combo acne-prone skin and makes a noticeable difference in my makeup routine. ... show more

  • Hydrating and holding!
I am starting to love Essence more and more every time I try a product. This makes my skin feel hydrating, smells refreshing and seems to keep my makeup on throughout the day! I like how it feels on my skin and will be keeping it as a staple in my skin care routine from now on. Amazing quality for the price. ... show more
