"The go-to dupe. Very similar grip and longevity."
Shop dupeMy verdict
The e.l.f. Power Grip Primer is one of the most talked-about dupes in beauty for good reason. It delivers the same tacky, gel-like grip that holds makeup in place all day. The texture, application feel, and wear-time extension are remarkably similar. Milk's formula has a slight edge in hydration and skincare ingredients (blue agave, hyaluronic acid), but the actual grip performance is nearly identical. At $10 vs $30, the e.l.f. dupe is the clear winner for most people. Save the $20 and put it toward a great setting spray.
