Faqs
A setting spray is your makeup's BFF! It's the final step that locks everything in place, from your foundation to your eyeshadow and ensures it lasts all day. A few spritzes create an invisible shield, preventing your look from fading, smudging, or melting away no matter what the day throws at you. Think of it as insurance for your makeup masterpiece, keeping you looking fresh and fierce from morning 'til night.
Yes, you can definitely use setting spray after setting powder. Applying setting powder first helps to lock in your foundation and concealer in place, and then a setting spray creates a final layer of protection to keep your makeup looking fresh and lasting longer.
While a face mist might offer a temporary refresh and some added moisture after makeup application, it won't provide the same level of hold as a setting spray. Setting sprays are formulated with ingredients that holds down your makeup in place. Thus, if you want to ensure your makeup look lasts all day, face mists may not be the right product for it.
Choosing the right setting spray depends on your skin type and desired finish. Consider the following:
- Matte finish: Suitable for oily skin or those who prefer shine control, matte setting sprays are recommended. These formulas minimise excess oil and prolong makeup wear.
- Dewy finish: Suitable for those with dry or ageing skin, as it gives your a radiant and luminous glow.
Makeup primers create a smooth base for foundation, minimising pores and fine lines. They help makeup last longer, control oil, and provide a flawless finish. Different types cater to various skin needs, such as hydration or mattifying.
Start with clean, moisturised skin. Apply a thin, even layer of face primer using your fingertips or a makeup sponge, focusing on areas with visible pores or fine lines. Allow the primer to set for about a minute before applying your complexion products. Your primer should feel tacky to the touch once it has set.

Consider your skin's needs. If pores and shine-control are a concern, a silicone-based primer such as the Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser Primer is your secret weapon. If you're after a hydrating face primer, try the Fit Me Dewy + Smooth Primer. Choose your ideal Maybelline primer and rock your look with confidence.
