Love!
I was hesitant at first after seeing a review about this primer causing someone to break out, as I am very acne-prone, but after using it for a couple of weeks, so far it's been great! I use the Lily Lolo loose mineral powder foundation (which I would absolutely love if Ulta would start carrying as ...

Worked well but had a reaction
This primer seemed to worked well. I don't normally use a primer and noticed that my makeup stayed in placed all day. Unfortunately though I had an allergic reaction to this product. The next morning, my face felt raw and itchy with tiny white bumps. For the past four days my skin has been very dry ...

Way too harsh not a dupe
I got this as a dupe but instead it had to most fragrant smell ive ever smelt in a makeup product, it felt like slime and water at the same time but it did have a cooling affect, my makeup hasnt pilled but has definitely separated on my forehead i really dont suggest this for any skin im returning it tomorrow and getting the OG
The pump
One good think I like about the elf hydrogrip primer is that the pump made it easier to control the amount of product I use. The pump on this one doesn't. I have to push it down all the way to get any product out for a full pump, and most of the time I dont need it so I end up wasting product. It's also super difficult to push down.
My fav tbh
This primer left my skin looking so smooth and clear! It stayed on the whole time for a wedding I attended outside. Really recommend
NOT a dupe.
Everyone online has been saying this primer can be a dupe for the power grip... Absolutely not. For one, it's fragranced so bad for sensitive skin. Second, it makes makeup pill and rub off immediately! My base looked dry, cake, and melted right off.
Honestly one of the best primers I've ever used

I went out for a long night that I wouldn't usually go out for. I don't wear make up a lot either. The places I went out to were extremely hot so I was absolutely dripping in sweat. My make up stayed on and in place the whole time I was sweating all because of this primer. I didn't notice any movement until I got home at 2:30 in the morning.
