We don’t have to tell you how hot it is. From the United States to the United Kingdom, record-busting temperatures have made things pretty uncomfortable. They’ve also made it more difficult to wear makeup without it running down your face and neck by the end of the day.
That’s why everyone needs a great makeup setting spray in their arsenal. A few spritzes after your makeup is all set will keep foundation, blush, eyeshadow, you name it from slipping and sliding. You can even apply these sprays beforehand to help prep your complexion.
Check out the slideshow to see the best makeup setting sprays for summer. You can also use them come fall, winter and spring.
