Unlocking the Secrets of Makeup Setting Sprays: Achieving a Lived-In Look like Elizabeth Taylor

Did you know that Elizabeth Taylor used to do her makeup and then take a steam bath so her makeup looked more set and lived in? So why setting sprays when you do your powder? To lock in your makeup. Okay. And I prefer to use a brush. A brush for more drier, dehydrated skins. But an oilier skin may love a puff for more absorbency. Okay, so for me, I am dry, so I’m gonna go here and just set in. But once I powder, I feel like I lose that dewy glow that the makeup gave me. So that’s why a setting spray. Okay. Because if we don’t do a little powder, especially in the heat, the makeup goes away. So you do a light veil of powder, and then this is designed, the new Mario one, for a lived in look like Elizabeth Taylor. Okay, so here we go. And we’re just gonna go over it. So what that does, and she’s a mist, she’s not a spinner. So it both sets the makeup, but this spray recreates that just natural, lived in skin vibe. Not too matte, not too dewy, just lived in, beautiful skin. So we may not have time for a steam bath, but you got time for a mist. So this particular one makes it look more like skin. But some are designed to be more matte, like one size, the L’oreal 3 second spray. And some are designed to be more dewy. Rare beauty, I feel like gives me a little bit more glow. Where this setting spray, if you’re looking for a new one, just looks like lived in skin. A soft veil. Anyway, that’s the difference. You want to really know which kind you’re looking for and for what reason. All right, let’s go. If you want to be like Elizabeth Taylor, this is the vibe.
