Getting your makeup perfect can be so fulfilling, but it can be a huge disappointment when your makeup doesn’t last all day. There are lots of ways that you can get your makeup to last throughout your entire day, but where do you start with that? Our go-to product for getting makeup to last all day is our Thank Me Later Makeup Setting Spray. Let’s dive into how to use makeup setting spray so that your makeup can last all day too.
What is makeup setting spray used for?
Makeup setting spray is the perfect last step in your makeup routine. The point of setting spray is to help your makeup to last all day, no matter what you’re doing. It’s a lightweight mist that holds your makeup in place with one easy step.
What makeup setting spray should I use?
We love our Thank Me Later Makeup Setting Spray for helping your makeup to last all day. This mist is the easiest step in your makeup routine. It’s paraben and sulfate free, and mattifies your makeup, so you won’t have a greasy look to your face, and it illuminates any oil slicks. It keeps your makeup looking fresh and doesn’t add any weight to your face, so you can go your whole day without worrying about touching up your makeup.
Should I use makeup setting spray before or after makeup?
Just as primer should be your first step in any makeup routine, setting spray should always be your last step. This is the step that locks in your look, making it so that you don’t have to reapply any of your products throughout the day. This should always be your final step since it locks in everything underneath.
What’s the difference between setting spray and setting powder?
Setting spray is fantastic for locking in your whole makeup look, and setting powder is fantastic for locking in your foundation or concealer without creasing or caking. We love our Set for Life Setting Powder for this. It’s talc-free and cruelty free and prevents white flash in photos, while locking in your makeup in a lightweight pore-minimizing way. We recommend trying setting powder and setting spray and deciding which one works best for you.

Just an FYI, I’m not playing peek-a-boo (although it does kinda look like that!). The simple act of covering your eyes when you’re misting your face with makeup setting spray stops it from touching your mascara.
And no wet lashes = no mascara smudging! 🙂
