Product details

e.l.f. Power Grip Primer Jumbo is a clear, gel-based face primer that hydrates skin while creating a tacky base to help makeup adhere and last longer.

This jumbo-size primer delivers a weightless, translucent gel that smooths texture and provides light hydration before foundation or tinted skincare. The formula is designed to sit between skin and makeup, giving products something to grip without adding oil or visible residue. Because it goes on clear and is non-comedogenic, it’s suitable for a wide range of skin types and routines.

How does this primer help my makeup stay put?

The gel creates a slightly tacky surface that improves adhesion for foundation, concealer, and cream products. That tackiness reduces product migration and settling into fine lines, helping color and coverage maintain their original finish for longer wear.

  • Tack-enhancing gel binds makeup to skin for extended wear
  • Clear, translucent finish won’t change product shade
  • Helps reduce sliding in areas prone to movement or oil

Will this primer work if I have dry, combo, or oily skin?

The Power Grip formula is hydrating yet lightweight, so it’s compatible with dry, combination, and oily skin types. It adds moisture without heaviness and won’t clog pores, making it a versatile base whether you need hydration or oil control under makeup.

  • Hydrating gel gives a plump feel to dry patches
  • Translucent finish suits combo skin without enhancing shine
  • Non-comedogenic formula helps avoid clogged pores on oily skin

How should I apply it for best results?

Apply a thin, even layer across cleansed, moisturized skin and gently pat with fingertips to encourage absorption. Allow about 30 seconds for the gel to settle; you should feel a slight tack before layering foundation or concealer. Using too much product can increase tackiness, so a small amount is usually sufficient.

  • Use fingertip warmth to smooth primer into skin
  • Wait 30 seconds for primer to set before applying makeup
  • Apply a thin layer—a little goes a long way on most skin types

Is this product cruelty-free and suitable for everyday use?

Yes—e.l.f. Power Grip Primer Jumbo is 100% vegan and certified cruelty-free by Leaping Bunny and PETA. The formulation is intended for regular use, but as with any topical product, stop use if you experience irritation and consult packaging for current ingredient details.

  • Vegan, Leaping Bunny and PETA certified
  • Formulated to be non-comedogenic and everyday-friendly
  • Check product packaging for the most up-to-date ingredient list

Who is this for: The e.l.f. Power Grip Primer Jumbo is designed for anyone who wants a reliable, no-tint base that smooths texture and helps makeup adhere — especially users who apply foundation, concealer, or cream products and prefer a hydrating, clear primer suitable for dry, combination, or oily skin. Its large size is also ideal for frequent makeup wearers, artists, or those building a consistent daily routine.
