What's better for oily skin: a setting spray or powder?

Setting spray is designed to lock in your makeup so nothing smears, cracks, or smudges. Finishing spray gives makeup a long lasting boost to hold it in place for an entire day.

What's the difference between setting spray and finishing spray?

Spray it on after you’ve completed all of your makeup.

Should setting spray go on before or after makeup?

Absolutely! A setting spray can help freshen your face, add hydration, or create a dewy, natural appearance.

Can I use setting spray without makeup?
