Eureka: this is how your makeup stays on all day

Years ago, the Facemist was sold to me when I was checking out something completely different. A bit like I grabbed a box of Smint at the checkout in Albert Heijn. With few words, she put the bottle in the bag and my new addiction began. Honestly, I can't live without it anymore. Not a day goes by without my face having received a good nourishing spray.

If I have a bit more time, I even use two or three during my morning routine. I start with a nourishing mist from Mario Badescu, which smells of lavender or roses. This hydration boost doesn't open my pores as you might read, but it does help my skincare penetrate a bit deeper into my skin. Whether it's winter or summer, whether you have an oily or dry skin: you need it. Then I grab bottle number two, the M.A.C Prep+Prime Fix+ Spray. I've definitely gone through at least 50 of these. I use it beforehand as a primer and to finish everything off. It sets my makeup and ensures that the result stays on all day. I hear you thinking: all day? If you see me tonight, my makeup looks exactly like it did this morning. Well, almost.

If you're still not convinced, I have five more tips on which spray you can use.

1. Cooling (water) spray

Ideal for summer, but the water evaporates in no time and your skin becomes drier from it. If you use it: pat your face dry afterwards, so you've had a bit of cooling and your skin stays supple.

2. Mattifying fix

Do you have a shiny face? Spray the Fix+ Mattifying Mist on your face throughout the day. Just make sure to shake the can well beforehand, otherwise you'll get matte, powdery spots on your face and that's not the intention.

3. Shine bright like a diamond

A shimmer not only gives your face a healthy glow, but it's also perfect for your legs. This way, your legs look smoother, slimmer, and more cared for. A shimmer looks nice on your neck during a night out.

4. Intense look

Apply your favorite powder to your brush and lightly spray your facemist over the hairs, this will intensify your powder.

5. SPF

You should of course protect your face from UV rays all year round, but honestly: I sometimes forget to do this. The Pixi Sun Mist with factor 30 makes it a lot easier for me. I spray it over my face throughout the day, especially in summer. You can just use it over your makeup, perfect.
