    To start I don’t have sensitive skin. I’ve never had a reaction to anything I’ve ever used. And while I did like the smell, texture and lightweight feeling of this primer.. after using it even just one time I broke out in a rash all over my face, my face was burning, itchy and very red. When applying the product it felt like alcohol and burned a little bit. But after wearing it for a while is when I broke out. I wanted to love it but i can’t. I gave it a few tries but i ended up not being able to wear makeup for a week afterwards.

    Amazing quality for a lesser price. It doesn’t feel too sticky or heavy on your face. The texture feels similar to aloe vera. The only issue I have is too many air bubbles in the pump, causing you to have to pump it up to 20 times to get any product once in a while.

    Good once you get the hang of it!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For me this primer was a little bit of a learning curve - i had to figure out the best way to use it which took me a few attempts and THEN it was good and I liked it! The primer itself is would say is really good for dry skin, it's very hydrating and for me helps my foundation not cling to any dry areas I have (which is usually my forehead), I would say if you have oily skin then this would be too much for you! What i found works is using only 1 pump... no more! If you use more than that i found that it can be too sticky but with one pump it was the perfect 'grippiness' that it claims to have. I waited around a minute for the primer itself to settle and getting a little tacky on my skin before applying my foundation and it looked nice! My foundation did look smoother and my make up in general did last longer throughout the day.

    Jelly grip primer is lightweight & boost pigment l

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Jelly grip hydrating primer the texture is super jelly, like a bouncy , and it’s feels instantly cooling on the skin . It goes on lightweight but gives that tacky finish you want so makeup actually stays put. My foundation glides on smoothly , doesn’t pill. And looks fresh all day. Not cakey or dry. I love that it gives hydration without feeling greasy. This primer really boost pigment and keeps makeup from looking dull.

    Affordable Primer That Truly Works

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll be honest I was very sceptical at first because of the low price, but this primer really surprised me in a good way. The formula seems much better than I expected and the jelly texture is lightweight, hydrating, and comfortable on the skin. It's non-sticky, absorbs quickly, and feels fresh. The scent is very neutral, which is good. With ingredients like glycerin acid and hyaluronic acid, it helps keep the skin smooth and hydrated. My makeup applied beautifully on top and stayed in place most of the day without any issues. Such a good everyday primer for the price!

    Works as it should

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Essence Jelly Grip Hydrating Primer for a while now, and overall it’s a really solid everyday primer — especially for the price. It’s very affordable, which makes it accessible without feeling cheap or low quality. The formula is lightweight and hydrating, and it sinks into the skin nicely without feeling sticky or heavy. What I really like is that it holds makeup in place all day without causing any pilling or peeling, even when layered with foundation and concealer. My makeup stays smooth and fresh, which is exactly what you want from a gripping primer. Another big plus is that it’s free from silicones and alcohol, making it a great option if you prefer a more skin-friendly formula or have sensitive skin. It feels comfortable to wear and doesn’t clog or suffocate the skin. The only downside is that it’s not particularly innovative. It does what it claims well, but it doesn’t bring anything new or groundbreaking compared to other gripping primers on the market. Overall, if you’re looking for an affordable, reliable primer that keeps makeup in place without peeling, this is a great option — simple, effective, and easy to wear.

    I love Essence products!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a big fan of Essence products and this primer is one of their best products in my opinion. Not only is it very affordable, but it also performs very well! I really like the packaging as it makes it easy to get the right amount of product every time. I used it for weeks and I can tell my makeup lasts for longer and does not get dry or patchy like it used to. It has a nice subtle scent to it and it gives a nice cool feeling when you apply it.

    Great make up grip!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great makeup grip, definitely helps keeping makeup in best condition. It don’t have much of a scent and have gel consistency, which is easy to apply. I moisture the skin and create slightly gripping layer. My foundation definitely didn’t wear off so quick with this on, which is a win. Great value for money!

    Great features

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Essence Jelly Grip Hydrating Primer is easy to apply because of pump dispenser and holds my makeup in place for the whole day and even longer is needed. This primer leaves my skin hydrated, fresh, smooth, shiny, and looking healthy. It really does provide grip effect without feeling heavy on the skin. The bottle is made from glass except lid and dispenser. Recommend

    Great primer

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in exchange for my honest review I don’t tend to like primers due to their inability to do anything but I really liked this, it felt super hydrating on my skin & allowed my makeup to applied smoothly.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) I was really impressed with this primer! The jelly texture feels so cooling and hydrating on the skin, and it gives a lovely fresh, plump base before makeup. My foundation went on smoother and lasted noticeably longer without going patchy or clinging to dry areas. It gives that nice grippy feel without being sticky, and it’s perfect for dry or dehydrated skin. I also love how lightweight it feels — no heaviness at all. For the price, this is such a good find and I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

    Essence Jelly Grip Hydrating Primer

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been really enjoying the Essence Jelly Grip Hydrating Primer, and it has become a staple in my makeup routine. The jelly texture feels cooling and refreshing on the skin and provides instant hydration without feeling heavy or greasy. It absorbs well and leaves a slightly tacky finish, which helps my foundation apply more smoothly and stay in place for longer. My base looks more even and fresh throughout the day, with less creasing or slipping. For such an affordable product, the quality is impressive. It works perfectly for everyday makeup and gives my skin a healthy, hydrated look.
