Full details

FAQs
Is this primer suitable for all skin types?
While effective for most, its strong mattifying and oil-absorbing properties might be too drying for very dry skin types. It is best suited for normal, combination, oily, or acne-prone skin.
How long does the makeup wear typically last with this primer?
Users typically report significantly extended makeup wear, often lasting a full day (10-12 hours) or through intense physical activity, provided it's applied correctly.
Can I use this primer with all types of foundation?
Yes, it is designed to work with various foundation formulas, including liquid, cream, and powder. It creates a versatile base for makeup application.
Does 'Secure The Sweat' contain aluminum?
No, this primer is formulated without aluminum.
What is the best way to remove this waterproof primer?
A thorough makeup remover, such as an oil-based cleanser or a dedicated waterproof makeup remover, is recommended for complete removal. Double cleansing is advised.
Will this primer help with acne or breakouts?
While it helps control oil, which can contribute to breakouts, it is not specifically an acne treatment. However, its mattifying effect can help create a smoother complexion. Always patch-test if you have sensitive or breakout-prone skin.
Can I use this primer on my eyelids?
This primer is formulated for the face. While some may use it on eyelids, it's best to use eye-specific primers for optimal results and safety around the eye area.
Troubleshooting
Primer is pilling or balling up on the skin.
This can happen if too much product is applied or if it's not given enough time to set before foundation. Try using a smaller amount and allow it to dry completely for 60 seconds before applying makeup. Ensure your skin is clean and free of other heavy products.
Makeup is not adhering well after primer application.
Ensure your skin is properly prepped and dry before applying the primer. Allow the primer to fully set before applying foundation. If the issue persists, ensure you are using compatible foundation formulas.
Primer feels too tight or drying on the skin.
This primer is designed for intense oil and sweat control. If you have naturally dry skin, consider applying it only to your T-zone or other oily areas, or mixing a tiny amount with a hydrating serum or moisturizer before application. Ensure your skincare routine includes adequate hydration.
Difficulty removing the primer.
Because of its waterproof properties, a strong makeup remover is necessary. Use an oil-based cleanser or a bi-phase micellar water. Gently massage the cleanser onto the skin and rinse thoroughly. Double cleansing is recommended.
