One of the most important steps of makeup is the primer you’re applying it on. A primer helps keep your makeup in place longer, retextures your skin, and can even reduce the amount of makeup you apply. There are hundreds of primers on the market for people with oily skin, dry skin, or textured skin.  There are primers for pore minimizing, and primers for colour correcting. The Milk Hydro Grip Primer is all that in one. 

This is a universal primer that hydrates and smooths out skin for a poreless finish with blue agave extract, and hyaluronic acid. It’s vegan, gluten free, cruelty free, etc. What more could you ever want in a primer? Milk’s primer also won an Allure Best of Beauty Award for Best Primer. 

It can be purchased through Milk’s website or in person at Sephora or on their website. There is a mini primer that comes with 0.33 FL. OZ for the price of $15.00, plus taxes and shipping if purchased through Sephora’s website, or a full size bottle with 1.52 FL OZ for $30.00. 

I have oily skin, so finding a primer that both minimized the appearance of the oil shine and also hydrated and moisturized my skin was a challenge. I would see so many good reviews on this product until I finally decided to give in and buy it. Two words, GAME CHANGER.

This primer was so gripping and made my makeup look so smooth and flawless. I would most definitely recommend this product to someone struggling to find a primer to hold their makeup on almost all day.
