Product Information
Full details
The ICONIC London Underglaze Grippy Primer is designed for makeup enthusiasts and professionals seeking a long-lasting, luminous canvas for their daily beauty routine. Its primary benefit is the unique bouncy, gel-like texture that acts as an adhesive 'underglaze' to lock foundation and concealer in place, though users with extremely sensitive skin should perform a patch test due to its active ingredient profile.

FAQs
Is this primer suitable for oily skin?
Yes, its lightweight, non-greasy formula makes it suitable for oily skin, though its primary focus is on providing a dewy finish.
Can I wear this primer alone?
While it is designed to grip makeup, you can wear it alone for a hydrated, radiant, 'no-makeup' look.
Does it contain fragrance?
The product is formulated to be gentle, but always check the specific ingredient list on the packaging if you have known scent sensitivities.
Is this product vegan and cruelty-free?
ICONIC London is a cruelty-free brand, and most of their products, including this primer, are vegan-friendly.
How long should I wait before applying foundation?
Wait about 30 to 60 seconds for the product to become tacky and grip the skin surface.
Will it clog my pores?
The formula is designed to be lightweight and skin-friendly, but as with any skincare product, individual results may vary based on your specific skin type.
Troubleshooting
Makeup appears patchy during application
Ensure your skin is fully hydrated before applying the primer and allow the primer 60 seconds to 'set' properly before applying your base product.
Primer feels too sticky
You are likely using too much product; try using a smaller pea-sized amount and pressing it into the skin rather than rubbing it.
Foundation separates over the primer
Check if your foundation is highly oil-based; this primer is optimized for lighter tints and standard liquid formulas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To integrate this into your routine, apply the primer as the final step of your skincare process and the first step of your makeup application. Allow approximately 30 to 60 seconds for the primer to set and become 'grippy' before applying your foundation or concealer. This primer is compatible with most water-based and silicone-based foundations, though it is recommended to test compatibility with your specific foundation for the best finish. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the active ingredients. Ensure the cap is tightly closed after each use to prevent the gel from drying out.
