If you’re already a fan of setting sprays, you’ll know that they are KEY when it comes to making sure your makeup lasts as long as you need it to. Of course, there are many things that come into play when it comes to your makeup lasting, like your skincare, but a setting spray will make sure your makeup lasts the whole hog.
Particularly when the sun shines, and we find our eyebrows melting throughout the day, ultimately landing on our chins (slight exaggeration, but you get the point), they’re here to save the day. So here are eight setting sprays that you’re sure to love, whatever your skin type or whatever finish you’re after.
Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray
Let’s kick things off with a brand new product, shall we? Following the success of Charlotte’s Airbrush products, there’s now a brand new Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray from Charlotte Tilbury – yep, we’re just as excited as you are. It promises to primes and sets for up to 16 hours, instantlyΒ locking in your look for makeup magic that looks βjust appliedβ, hydrating and fixing your makeup to achieve that ultimate airbrush look without melting, fading, creasing or settling into fine lines.Β
Both a travel and a full size will be available (love that for us) on charlottetilbury.com from July 24th and in Brown Thomas and Arnotts nationwide from July 30th.
