One of my favorite beauty Gurus swears by Cover FX’s Gripping Primer ($44). This product is so popular, it is usually sold out at Sephora and there are no testers in the store. After months of searching, I finally got a sample of it.
My Guru promised a “glass like finish” to my skin. While the beauty Guru looked amazing in the video, I am certain in person it did not look good. I had to put it to the test! I applied it all over and found it really heavy and greasy. I felt like if I left it on my skin, I would surely breakout. For my readers, I kept it on and applied foundation. I found the foundation applied very patchy and chalky. I immediately took it off.
If you want a “glass like finish,” do not use this primer. Instead, apply a good moisturizer under your primer, a pore minimizing primer and a luminous primer. By creating a smooth foundation, you can achieve a “glass like” finish!.
