Great dupe for Milk HydroGrip
I did my usual skincare before priming and compared the E.L.F. on my left to the Milk in my right. I couldn't tell a difference.

I like it
This primer works really good for anyone that has oily skin. The primer glides on so effortlessly and really does mattify and reduce my pores for a smooth finish once my concealer and foundation was applied.I also like that it's a very nice sized bottle and reasonably priced .I received this product...

Matter Primer
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This primer is good to use but there are some things I don't like. I know it's a Matter primer, but applying it can be a bit difficult as it dries pretty fast and feels too drying on the skin. However, it is a good primer as it definitely helps keep my makeup in place. However since it is drying, I feel like you need to apply more of this primer compared to others.

Personally not for me
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] To be honest with you, I'm not crazy about how sticky this is. It's just not my thing. But I can feel that it somewhat holds onto the skin when you layer foundation on top. Personally not for me, but I didn't wanna give it low stars just because I didn't like it! It might work for others!
Flawless foundation coverage in long lasting
I normally use prestige brand primers and havent found one I was in loved with until i try this Elf one. It was a fractionof the cost of the previous ones I had purchased and my foundation as well as all of my other makeup lasted without any caking until the next day. I'm amazed! I will be only using this primer from now on. I have no cons about it.
Best primer I have used!
I have used alot of primers. This is the best one. Way better than the hydro grip!!
Yes
My niece told me about this primer a year ago! I've been using it ever since. I absolutely love it! It's super lightweight on the skin. 10 out of 10!
