GLAMGLOW is known for its innovative masks and skincare treatments, and its newest release called SUPERMATTIFY is a [skincare-makeup hybrid](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conceal-perfect-blur-out-smoothing-primer). The SUPERMATTIFY Clarifying Oil-Control Face Primer is a silicone-based product that promises to do more than just create the perfect canvas for applying color cosmetics.

The clarifying primer is formulated with six acids—lactic acid, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, mandelic acid, tartaric acid and pyruvic acid—with deeply cleansing, exfoliating and acne-banishing benefits. While these skincare acids are included in other products from GLAMGLOW, they are unique to this [oil control primer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dayprimerx), which is designed to [minimize pores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porefessional-foundation) and keep them free from acne. Although the product seems to have a gray hue thanks to the inclusion of charcoal, the balm applies clear.
