We love makeup, no doubt there. But what we love more is multipurpose makeup products! While you’re probably aware of the basic ones like using lipstick as blush and using eyeshadow to fill in the brows, we’re going to let you in on some game-changing ways to use your makeup fixing spray. Yes, that magic mist does more than just set your makeup in place. Ahead, we’ve listed down some amazing setting spray hacks every makeup addict needs to know about. Read on…
- Hack #1: To prep your skin
- Hack #2: To manage frizz
- Hack #3: To make your eyeshadow pop
- Hack #4: To up the intensity of your highlighter
- Hack #5: To shape and set your eyebrows
Hack #1: To prep your skin
Running out of primer and want your base makeup to look perfect? Fret not, your setting spray has got you covered. Once your moisturiser and sunscreen sets, just spritz some setting spray all over your face. The spray, just like a primer, will help your makeup stay in place for a longer time and also help your foundation to blend in perfectly.
Hack #2: To manage frizz
Frizzy hair is a bane in our existence but not when you have a makeup setting spray to your rescue. Similar to a hair spray, the setting spray helps tame and manage frizzy hair and the little wisps that never seem to settle down. All you gotta do is spray a few pumps of setting spray on your hair from about a distance of 8-10 inches and run a brush through them.
Hack #3: To make your eyeshadow pop
Want to make your eyeshadow pop? All you need to do is spray a few bursts of makeup setting spray on your eye makeup brush before swirling it in your eyeshadow palette. This intensifies the pigment of your eyeshadow and also minimises the chances of your eye makeup creasing.
Hack #4: To up the intensity of your highlighter
Want an envious glow? All you need is your trusty setting spray. Before swirling your brush in your highlighter, just spritz some makeup setting spray on it. This will help make your highlighter pop and add that gorgeous dewy effect to your look.
Hack #5: To shape and set your eyebrows
We are firm believers of the fact that your brows frame your face. And it can be quite heart-wrenching (not even exaggerating here) when you spend a great deal of time filling and shaping your eyebrows, only for them to turn messy a few hours later! But not when you have a setting spray on you. Simply spritz some setting spray on the spoolie and brush your brows upwards and outwards. This hack will help your eyebrows stay in place and make them look natural too.
