2 best setting sprays, tested and reviewed | CNN Underscored

You spend a lot of time perfecting your makeup. Your setting spray should work just as hard.

A setting spray is often neglected, but can be one of the most handy tools in your makeup bag. If applied properly, it can help lock in foundation, concealer and mascara to extend wear in the sweatiest of scenarios (think workout classes, un-air-conditioned subway rides and humid weather). And depending on the formula, a setting spray can even mattify oily T-zones or add a dewy glow. All should keep makeup from smudging, fading or creasing.

A good setting spray is one that’s lightweight and keeps makeup in place for hours. To see which ones performed best, our editors tested several top brands over two weeks, wearing each through full workdays and sweat sessions. After putting them through jogs, heated group fitness classes and even humid heat waves, we found two setting sprays that consistently delivered long-lasting looks.
