Formulation view This primer utilizes talc, silica, and magnesium aluminum silicate for matte oil control. Propylene glycol hydrates, while xanthan gum adjusts viscosity. Preservation includes phenoxyethanol and a mix of parabens, requiring attention to sensitivity. Allantoin offers soothing. The formula targets visual pore minimization and sebum control, ideal for oily to combination skin, especially in hot climates, focusing on fine powder dispersion.
