Ready, Set, Go Makeup Setting Spray | Hydrating + Multitasking Setting Spray

Do I use setting spray before or after makeup?

Both. Mist Ready, Set, Go over bare, moisturized skin to prep before foundation, then again over finished makeup to lock everything down. The first pass gives makeup something to melt into; the second knocks back any powdery look and settles it into skin. Ylang ylang flower extract keeps it comfortable, never tight.

How far away should I hold the setting spray?

About eight to ten inches from the face. Close your eyes and mist in an X and a T rather than soaking one spot, then let it dry down on its own — don't fan or blot. Two to four passes is plenty; over-spraying is what breaks makeup down instead of setting it.

Will Ready, Set, Go control shine on oily skin?

Yes — it's a weightless mist formulated to control oil and shine, and it suits combination and oily skin especially well. Set with powder first, then mist over the top so the powder melts into the skin and the finish reads skin-like rather than flat. Reapply midday over blotted skin instead of adding more powder.

Can I use it to refresh my makeup during the day?

Yes — that's half its job. A light mist mid-afternoon revives makeup that's gone dull or powdery without disturbing what's underneath. Blot excess oil first, then mist and let it dry. It's the fastest reset in a working kit between a day shoot and an evening event.

Is it suitable for dry and sensitive skin too?

Yes — it's formulated for all skin types and all climates. The mist is lightweight and non-sticky, so it doesn't leave the tight, dried-out feeling that puts dry and sensitive skin off setting sprays. Ylang ylang flower extract helps soothe and comfort the skin as it sets your makeup.
