We’ve all already experienced this little beauty drama. We leave the house with an impeccable complexion, perfectly blended blush and concealer that seems to have disappeared into the skin. A few hours later, the foundation has moved around the nose and the small touch-ups begin. Suffice to say that when a NYX foundation promises up to 24 hours of wear, we really want to understand its secret. Especially as Black Friday 2026 approaches, an ideal time to spot some makeup essentials at low prices.
Behind this little find, we find NYX Professional Makeup, a brand born in Los Angeles in 1999, which has become essential thanks to its accessible products and its collections which regularly attract attention. We immediately think of its famous Butter Gloss, these creamy lip glosses that have conquered social networks. But this time, it’s The Face Glue Primer that intrigues us.
A NYX foundation that will make our makeup last all day
The principle of The Face Glue from NYX is quite ingenious: creating a slightly adherent surface to allow foundation, concealer and blush to attach better. Its light gel texture spreads easily and becomes discreet once applied. The brand thus promises up to 24 hours of wear, according to a consumer test carried out with 117 women. An attractive promise, even if the result obviously depends on the type of skin, the products applied and the conditions of the day. What we especially like is the idea of prolonging the wear of your makeup without necessarily adding a new layer of powder. Enough to keep a fresh complexion for longer, especially during endless work days or Christmas evenings.
Polyglutamic acid and an ingredient we really weren’t expecting
But The Face Glue foundation doesn’t just focus on fixation. Its formula contains polyglutamic acid, an ingredient known for its hydrating properties, which helps the skin retain water. NYX also announces up to 24 hours of hydration, according to an instrumental test carried out on 28 women. And to improve the adhesion of makeup, the brand chose maple extract. Yes, maple which immediately makes us think of syrup on pancakes, even if the product is obviously not intended to smell like breakfast. There is also a vegan formula, developed in South Korea, with a texture designed to remain comfortable under makeup. The kind of little detail that makes us want to replace our usual foundation, especially if our skin tends to lack hydration in winter.
How to apply NYX The Face Glue foundation to make your makeup last?
The Face Glue primer is used after moisturizer and before foundation. Place a small amount on the face, then spread it evenly with your fingers. We emphasize the places where makeup tends to move, notably the nose and chin. Once the base is distributed, apply your usual foundation without multiplying layers.
Is The Face Glue primer suitable for dry or combination skin?
The Face Glue base contains polyglutamic acid, appreciated for its moisturizing properties. Its formula may therefore be of interest to people who are looking for more comfort under their makeup. However, it does not replace a moisturizer adapted to your skin type. For combination skin, we recommend applying a small amount of product and then adjusting the powder to areas prone to shine.
