Want to make your makeup flawless and long-lasting? With a setting spray, you make sure your makeup blends together and becomes one beautiful whole. These are the 5 best setting sprays according to NSMBL.
There are even setting sprays that keep you from looking like a soaked raccoon even underwater.
Charlotte Tilbury’s Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray
This is the best setting spray because this product is suitable for every skin type. A few sprays and even a powdery set turns into a glowy look. Plus, it makes your makeup last longer than 16 hours and the spray feels luxurious as it swirls onto your skin. Perfect for the glass skin makeup trend, by the way.

What is the difference between setting spray and fixing spray?
Setting and fixing spray are often mixed up. Not surprising, since they are both sprays for your makeup. Yet there is a difference. Fixing spray (alcohol base) makes sure your makeup stays in place longer and you use it last. The setting variant (water-based) blends things in, so you don’t have a powdery effect and your face doesn’t look dry.
Looking for a good fixing spray? Then this is our favorite:
Kryolan Fixing Spray
Kryolan
This spray is ideal for anyone with oily skin or if you do a lot of color correction. In the film industry, they use this spray to fix tattoos and make sure actors’ makeup stays put even under blazing hot lights.
