Setting & Finishing Sprays
Make room in your makeup bags! Any product that helps your makeup last longer is one you want to know about—and keep on hand. Makeup setting spray does just that. Unlike primers, which you apply as a base before starting your makeup routine, makeup finishing powders are the last step to lock down your look. Think of them as the topcoat to your makeup—an invisible but important final step to make sure all your hard work pays off by staying put.
One of the brilliant benefits of these magic makeup fixers is that there’s really no wrong time to use them. Of course, after your makeup is recommended, but who says you can only spritz once a day? Whenever your skin needs a refreshing boost or your makeup feels like it starting to lose its luster, pull out your makeup up spray any time of day or night. Don’t wear makeup? Your skin will still appreciate the hydrating pick-me-up—especially if your finishing spray is formulated with specific benefits like moisturising, energising, or balancing.
Depending on the formula you choose, some makeup setting sprays help hydrate the skin while other keep you cool on balm days. Either way, finishing sprays are better for your skin than misting your face with water alone. If you want a setting spray for oily skin, look for one that gives a matte finish to help offset oiliness throughout the day and keep your makeup in tact without sliding away. On the other hand, a finishing spray for dry skin should be extra moisturising to give your complexion a dewy finish at any time. No matter which spray you opt for, they’re all easy to apply: simply hold the bottle 6-8 inches away from your face, close your eyes, and mist evenly 2-3 times.
