Formula overview

This water-based primer will likely feel lightweight and breathable on the skin. It contains Glycerin, a humectant that helps the skin retain moisture, and Silica, a mineral that helps absorb oil and provide a smooth finish.

Compatibility

This water-based formula is ideal for oily and combination skin types seeking to blur pores with oil-absorbing silica while maintaining hydration through glycerin. Those with very dry skin may find the silica content slightly too mattifying, potentially emphasizing dry patches if not applied over a rich moisturizer.
