I have oily acne prone skin, so getting any foundation to last more than 4 hours on my skin before I have to blot or powder is very difficult. I absolutle love how much longevity this product gives...

I actually like this spray a lot! It holds my makeup very well but maybe it is in how you use it? For me I apply this after my foundation and powder to set it. Then I go about doing my eye makeup....

I hate this spray. Also, the packaging on mine had a weird nozzle so it sprayed too thickly, but I just put it in another bottle with a finer spray nozzle. The thing I hate the most about it is...

Keeps the oil away and my makeup in place. Usually the makeup around my mouth and chin wear off throughout the day, but even after a full day of work it is still there. Everything stays place. It...

I use this and the UD All Nighter on rotation. I feel like this spray does a better job at keeping me matte with foundations that dont have the best oil control. All Nighter keeps my makeup on, but...

I actually really like this spray. Not only does it keep my makeup looking fresh and relatively matte without being cakey, it's cheap. It does smell like a chemical mixture but the smell doesn't...

Straight to the point I would say this product is a 3 out of 5. I have heard a lot about this product, especially since its a cheap version of the Urban Decay All night spray(which is amazing!). It...

At around $8 a pop regular price at CVS, this product is worth what I paid. I sprayed this on my face after a matte setting powder and a mineral illuminator. The finish is satiny/dewy rather...

Doesn't extend the wear of my makeup as much as I'd hoped. The nozzle doesn't create a very fine mist, so be sure to hold the bottle pretty far away from your face or you will get full droplets of...

WONDERFUL! I love this spray. I use it (since it's cheap) as an everyday setting spray. It makes mineral-y and powdery cake face turn into nice, clean, finished perfection and keeps my face from...

This spray was great! I picked it up at a 50% off NYX products at Ulta so I only paid about $7 (regularly $12.99) and I would have paid full price for it had I knew how great it was. It really did...

My first setting spray, this stuff wasn't sticky, sprayed on well, no scent. It didn't really have a completely matte finish but instead a slightly dewy one, but it wasn't shiny at all. It kept my...

I'd never tried a setting spray before, but I've been liking a lot of other NYX products I've used, so I thought I'd give this a shot. Unfortunately I feel like this did next to nothing for me. I...
