Setting spray & Makeup setting

Make makeup last longer

We often do our makeup at home, but we constantly have to touch it up because it doesn't stay put for very long. Professional makeup artists use different techniques to make makeup last longer and thus avoid having to touch it up. One solution is using a makeup setting spray .

In hot weather, keeping makeup in place is a challenge. That's why makeup setting sprays seal and keep makeup products adhered to our skin.

Types of makeup setting sprays

Makeup setting sprays are relatively new products, but major brands have already designed different types of setting sprays:

• Setting sprays : These are spray-based fixatives that we apply after applying makeup to help it last longer. They help prevent the skin from drying out and reduce shine.
• Prep setting sprays : These are used after properly cleansing the skin and before applying makeup. They hydrate the skin and prepare the face so that makeup lasts longer.
• Setting sprays: these types of setting sprays serve to unify all the makeup we have used, providing a single layer of makeup.
• Translucent setting powders : These have the same function of setting makeup, but using transparent powders. They provide a natural finish and make makeup resistant to sweat and water.

When buying a makeup setting spray, it's important to know your skin type and its needs in order to take the best possible care of your complexion.

If you have dry skin, avoid products containing alcohol, as these tend to dry it out. It's best to use products with moisturizing properties. For sensitive or oily skin, we recommend oil-free setting sprays. Powder setting sprays are suitable for these skin types. Most setting sprays are suitable for all skin types.

Tips to make your makeup last longer

• First, you need to thoroughly cleanse your face to remove any traces of makeup or impurities it may contain.
• The skin must be properly moisturized. Certain makeup products can dry out the skin on the face, so it should be pre-treated with a moisturizer .
• We can use a primer to help our makeup stay put for longer.
• Waterproof makeup lasts longer on the face. It also holds up better when we sweat or get our skin wet.
• Applying cold air with a hairdryer after applying makeup will help the makeup set faster and increase its durability.
• Finally, we can apply the makeup setting product that will help us keep our makeup in place all day.
