Spending 45 minutes on your makeup just to sweat it off within a couple of hours is no fun. Girls with oily skin seem the take the hardest hit. It’s difficult to find a setting spray that actually works and does what it says it will do. If you want your makeup to last through the rain, sweat, tears and whatever else might come your way, setting sprays are key.
Setting sprays are supposed to help lock your makeup in all day long. After you apply your entire makeup routine, from foundations to eyelashes, spray the bottle across your face to get an even layer. There are different kinds that cater to different skin types. So if you are looking for a dewy mist, make sure you read the label carefully.
Many people want to opt for hairspray instead of setting spray. This can cause irritation to the skin and I wouldn’t recommend. There are cheap drugstore setting sprays that work wonders and you’ll see below which ones I’m talking about. So put down the hairspray bottle, go to the store and pick up one of these sprays. You won’t regret it and your makeup will be lasting all night long.
This mist costs only $4. So there really is no reason to not give it a try! It has soothing and hydrating properties, containing ingredients like aloe, green tea, cucumber and more. It was made to help hold your makeup all day and revitalize makeup colors. If you want a more vibrant eyeshadow, spritz this mist onto your brush prior to application. It will work as a primer and also help give off a brighter look.

According to NYX this spray is, “ideal for those looking for a shine-free face free of any oil.” It can be purchased at Ulta Beauty for $8.50. Also, this brand is cruelty-free and all their products are vegan. For best results, I would recommend still wearing a powder on top of your foundation. Powders help to lock in the oils.
