 All Nighter Waterproof Matte Setting Spray

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I'm happy I got the opportunity to try this setting spray but I was disappointed by the outcome. To begin, the spray comes in an easy to dispense bottle that fits easily into your hand and is compact enough to take on the go which I like. The directions state to place it about 6-8 inches away from the face and to spray about 10 times. It does offer coverage to the entire face and is very lightweight. It has a subtle fragrance but nothing notable or overpowering. It's easy to remove with your make up and doesn't make your face feel tight or congested. My disappointment arises from the lack of effect. I personally did not see a difference between the before and after application and I've provided photos as a reference. The image without the product is the before. I think that for a matte setting spray, it didn't provide a matte finish. My skin still showed a dewy/glow effect. I did allow the product to sit for a little while before making a judgement for this review but it just didn't provide the desired effects.

I normally use the black/purple all nighter spray so I know that I can trust this brand. I recently found that I have hyperhidrosis and was looking for a product that would finish and set without making me look as dewy. I wanted a more casual and natural look and I didn't want to risk my makeup running with my sweat and staining my clothes. This matte effect was exactly what I was looking for. I was actively cooking in a hot kitchen but you can see from my pictures that you can barely tell I was even sweating. This was exactly the effect I was looking for and left me feeling more confident and less conscious while interacting with others. I dab at my face constantly and use this as my own blot test to see how much of my coverage is lost from my perspiration. Apparently, none. I didn't even use my primer today I just threw it together and despite dabbing several times I still have full coverage. My makeup is still rubbing off though, visibly onto a white pillowcase kinda rub? So I would still be wary of white fabrics until I also control that problem. Which obviously only comes up if I actively rub my face on something light. I'm pretty new to even using makeup and finding the perfect combination to let me enjoy this process is really important to me. I also didn't want it set so great that I had to vigorously scrub my face to clean it, which further complicates the whole process haha but I will figure it out, maybe with a powder as my final step? I received this product for free as part of a promotion.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Love this! No sticky residue, easy to remove. A nice smooth matte feeling finish. Super happy with this product and the application process and how well it lasts!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I really liked this setting spray as it did mattify my makeup well once it was sprayed on. It's a fine mister and I really like the feeling of it. It's lightweight too. I gave it 4 stars because it didn't last a full 8 hours but otherwise, great product

I received this product in exchange for my honest review, I loved this product so much. As a makeup girlie and specifically someone who has never really used setting spray, I will 100% be buying this product in the future, it's a great matte finish also as someone with oily skin and really helps deflect the oily skin but still keep that glow. It was super easy to remove as well, washes away with makeup wipes or any face wash.
