4. Preparation for Use (Setup)

Before applying the e.l.f. Power Grip Primer, ensure your skin is clean and moisturized. For best results, allow any skincare products (like serums or moisturizers) to fully absorb into your skin before proceeding with primer application.

5. Application Instructions (Operating)

1. Dispense a small amount of primer onto your fingertips.
2. Apply evenly to your face, gently patting the product into your skin. The warmth of your fingers will help the primer melt and spread smoothly.
3. Allow approximately 30 seconds for the primer to set and become tacky before applying your makeup (foundation, concealer, etc.). This setting time is crucial for the primer to create its gripping effect.

6. Storage and Care (Maintenance)

To maintain the quality and efficacy of your e.l.f. Power Grip Primer, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the cap is securely closed after each use to prevent drying out or contamination.

7. Common Issues and Solutions (Troubleshooting)

• Is the primer supposed to be sticky?
  Yes, the Power Grip Primer is designed to be slightly sticky for a minute or two when first patted onto the face. This tacky feel is intentional as it helps grip your makeup, and it typically disappears after you apply your foundation.
• How long should I let the primer dry before applying foundation?
  Allow the primer to set completely for a minute or two before applying makeup. This helps to prevent pilling or patchiness of your foundation.
• Skin Irritation:
  If irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately. Consult a healthcare professional if irritation persists.
