How to Set Makeup with Setting Spray
Hold the bottle 6-8 inches from your face and mist in an X and T pattern after completing your makeup.
Setting spray is insurance, not magic—if your base makeup is wrong for your skin, no spray will save it.
- Choose your moment. Apply setting spray as the final step after all makeup is complete. Your face should be dry with no tacky products still setting.
- Perfect the distance. Hold the bottle 6-8 inches from your face. Too close creates wet patches that disturb your makeup, too far wastes product.
- Spray strategically. Mist in an X pattern across your face, then add a T across your forehead and down your nose. These areas need the most longevity.
- Let it work. Keep your face still for 15-20 seconds while it dries. The formula needs time to create its protective film over your makeup.
