My Makeup Kept Melting Off in This Heat, So I Tried Layering Setting Sprays
I thought I had setting spray figured out: Pick one that works for your skin type, mist it on, and call it a day. Then, during a Beauty Aisle interview, makeup artist Erica Taylor mentioned that when she really needs her makeup to look fresh and to last, she layers two setting sprays. She starts with Milani Moisture Boost Setting Spray to add hydration and set the layers of makeup together, then finishes with L’Oréal Infallible 3-Second Setting Mist to lock everything in place.
Since then, I’ve noticed Taylor isn’t the only makeup artist who doubles up on setting sprays. No, you don’t need two. If you’ve already found one setting spray that keeps your makeup looking fresh all day, stick with it. But if your makeup starts breaking down in the humidity or you want an extra benefit like hydration, glow, oil control, or even a bronzed finish, layering two formulas is a surprisingly effective trick. The first spray helps create the finish you want, while the second acts like insurance, helping that finish last longer. I tested several combinations to find the pairings that worked best.
