  • Time for another bottle.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I honestly wasn’t expecting to love this as much as I do, but it’s become an everyday staple in my makeup routine. 💚 The biggest surprise? It’s actually not sticky. I was worried a “gripping” primer would leave my face feeling tacky, but this feels lightweight and smooth. My makeup goes on really nicely and stays put without feeling heavy. I also love that it doesn’t have an overpowering scent. If you’re sensitive to heavily fragranced products, this is a huge plus. The texture is really nice too. It’s hydrating without making my skin greasy. For the price, you seriously can’t beat it. It’s so affordable, and the bottle lasted me way longer than I expected because you only need a little bit each time. Pros: ✨ Affordable ✨ Lightweight, smooth texture ✨ Not sticky ✨ Very light scent ✨ Helps my makeup stay on all day ✨ Bottle lasts a long time Cons: Honestly…none for me! If I had to pick something, I’d just say make sure to let it sit for a minute before applying foundation. If you’ve been looking for a budget-friendly primer that actually works, this one is 100% worth trying. I’ll definitely be repurchasing! 💖 ... show more

  • I cannot live without this stuff.
My skin is a veritable oil slick. If human oiliness could power cars or lubricate squeaky hinges, I honestly think I could supply enough for the entire world. Because of this, I am always on the lookout for a decent primer. And this one delivers. I use the essence Jelly Grip Hydrating Primer in tandem with a mattifying primer, and together they do a great job of holding my makeup in place. I haven't tried this one by itself, so I can't really speak to how well it controls oil on its own. Honestly, though, I bought it primarily because I wanted something that would grip my makeup and keep it from wandering off halfway through the day. It feels really cooling when you apply it, which is a nice bonus, and it doesn't smell horrendous like some primers I've encountered. I also feel like it makes my skin feel a little tighter and seems to blur my pores somewhat. Even better, I've noticed fewer breakouts since using it. I've been pairing it with MAC foundation, and so far, so good. My makeup blends easily over it, whether I'm applying foundation or concealer. I've also started dabbing a tiny bit on my eyelids over my regular eyeshadow primer, and that has been a pleasant surprise. My eyeshadow really grips, stays where I put it, and I've noticed less fallout ending up underneath my eyes. Because apparently my face was not already producing enough drama on its own. Overall, I have been really happy with this primer. It grips my makeup, feels nice going on, blends beautifully with everything I've put over it, and doesn't smell like a chemical accident. For someone whose face apparently believes it is an offshore drilling operation, that's a win. ... show more

  • Affordable Primer That Really Works!
I honestly didn’t expect such great results at this price. It leaves my skin feeling hydrated with just the right amount of tackiness to help my makeup stay put all day. My foundation applies smoothly and lasts much longer without looking cakey. A little goes a long way, and I’ll definitely be repurchasing. ... show more

  • Nice product, Lightweight feel
This is a great product and I highly recommend it. However, I am unsure as to why mine was sent without it's cap.. My skin doesn't break out with this formula and my makeup stays put very nicely throughout the day. The gel is nice and light and has a nice feeling on the skin. Very refreshing to use. I feel like this product will work nicely over this summer! ... show more

  • A little goes a long way
It’s decent for the price. Not the most gripping I ever got but I’m gonna continue using it and a little goes a long way.

  • One of my favorite Essence products!
For the price, this is such an amazing makeup primer! I especially love using it during the winter when my skin gets really dry and foundation can start looking flaky or uneven. This primer makes such a difference — my makeup applies much more smoothly and my skin feels hydrated underneath. I also use it during the summer, so it has definitely become a year-round product for me. I actually use it as my makeup base instead of a moisturizer, and it works perfectly for my skin. Such a great affordable product and honestly one of my favorites from Essence. Definitely recommend! ... show more

  • Grips Like no other
This is the best primer I’ve ever used for a really great price. It’s very hydrating and keeps that makeup in place. Purchasing my second one now. It lasted me 3 months. I only wear makeup once a week.

  • Must have for skincare/makeup regimens. Smells great!
It’s affordable, and it is such a clean makeup product to use! It smells fresh, almost soapy clean, it’s lightly hydrating, meaning it plumps the skin and primes it for makeup without making it oily. It is amazing how it grips the product. I use it under foundation, even under tinted moisturizer and it grips the same. Works very well with powders as well. I find myself using two pumps an application for coverage of my face and neck. It’s wonderful! Selfie is to showcase the makeup after 5 hrs of wear/ no touch up, no filter. It works on filling pores ❤️❤️❤️ ... show more
