Yes, you read that right. The number one rule? Last step, always. Wait until your base, concealer, blush, bronzer, highlighter, and even your mascara are fully done.
Why? Because setting spray is the final boss. It locks everything in a protective, invisible shield. If you spray halfway through, you’ll just smudge your hard work.
Fun fact: Some pros call this the “cry-proof” step. Not that you’ll cry, but if you do, your makeup won’t abandon you. That’s loyalty.
The “Skin Prep” Secret (Yes, Before Foundation)
Here’s a wild trick. Use a hydrating setting spray on your bare skin before primer. It sounds insane, but it works.
This little spritz gives your face a tacky base. Think of it like glue for your foundation. It makes everything stick better, especially if you have oily skin.
It’s a game-changer. Try it once. Your makeup will stay put like it’s holding on for dear life. Seriously.
