  • “It's not as thick as something like the E.L.F. Grippy Primer, which I love the ELF grippy primer, but this one's just a bit more easily spreadable because it's like liquid form”3:58–4:02
  • “It does after about 30 seconds, it does dry down to be this like grippy, sticky sort of finish”4:09–4:15

4.2Grippy Serum 24-Hour Gripping Hydrating Primer
  • “This is a really nice serum primer that will leave you with a slightly tacky base, but it's not overly sticky”1:50–2:00
  • “If you think that the Elf Power Grip is a little bit too sticky for your liking, the Maybelline's Grippy Serum is a lot more lightweight”2:08–2:15

3.5Grippy Serum 24-Hour Gripping Hydrating Primer
  • “It starts off with a very very thin and runny consistency. I mean, it really does look like a skin care serum, which means it's very easy to spread over the skin”6:45–6:54
  • “After just a few moments it starts drying down to more of that sticky sensation”7:00–7:06
  • “It's definitely adding a dewy appearance to my skin, though I don't think it looks too wet”7:15–7:21
  • “I did notice that I was looking a bit more radiant with this primer underneath, but not overly shiny”7:33–7:37
  • “All of my products were applying really well over this because of that thinner consistency”7:37–7:43
  • “I really liked how my makeup looked on top of this. Everything was smooth, even, and I thought the radiance this gave me was natural-looking”7:50–7:55
  • “I thought that this primer made my foundation and just my makeup overall look a little bit heavier right off the bat”
  • “As far as wear time goes, this has been pretty impressive. I didn't lose all that much coverage throughout the majority of my face”8:22–8:26

Poreless Jelly 24-Hour Blurring Poreless Primer
4.2Poreless Jelly 24-Hour Blurring Poreless Primer
  • “The texture of this primer is very interesting because it does have a jelly-like consistency in that it's thin and spreadable, but it also has a soft and silky feel as you spread it across your skin that a typical silicone primer would have, but without the silicone”1:13–1:16
  • “I also found it cooling on the skin as I applied it, and I could definitely feel and see the hydration”1:29–1:33
  • “I was happy to report that there was zero peeling all week”1:40–1:46
  • “I did see a reduction in the appearance of my pores, especially on my nostrils and the cheek area on either side of my nose”2:05–2:10
  • “It's not as blurring as say the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer, which I've been using a lot lately because it is so gorgeous. But that's a $35 primer and this is $10”
  • “The side that I applied primer on did stay looking much smoother around my texture and acne scarring and just unevenness versus the side that I did not use it on”2:33–2:43
  • “I did actually get a little shinier on the primer side, though”2:47–2:51
  • “I do think that this is a better option, especially if you have oilier combo skin if you're looking for a best of both worlds primer where you get the blurring, but you also get the moisturizing without adding too much dew”3:07–3:12

Brand note

Maybelline is the drugstore brand that consistently delivers on longevity and performance, especially in foundations and lip products. The Super Stay Lumi Matte Foundation is a clear anchor — a thin, lightweight formula that dries to a natural matte with a hint of luminosity, wears all day without getting crepey, and works across skin types from dry to oily. The Lifter Liner and Lifter Gloss are also frequently mentioned for their staying power and comfortable feel, though shade range complaints pop up for the liner.
