So I’ve seen a million and one people talk about this product and love it! I’m not going to lie, I was pulled in by the whole hype of it and just needed to pick it up. The Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray is known for being one of the best.
Now, I have to say, I’m not the biggest fan girl of setting sprays. While I love them for getting rid of excess powder and helping your makeup sit better on the skin, I’ve never really been convinced they make your makeup last longer. It always still rubs off on my nose (weird), it always gathers around the natural creases (don’t say they’re not creases they’re wrinkles, I aint ready for that) and makeup just generally wears throughout the day. And it’s fine. It’s like, and it’s normal, and many of the foundations I love wear and fade beautifully.
But I honestly never really see that setting spray makes a difference.
And now here’s the thing. I know people obsess over this product……… I just don’t see the hype.
Don’t come at me
The packaging is beautiful, the spray is one of the nicest of the handful of setting sprays I’ve tried. And this does help your makeup meld into your face and sort out any additional powder (yes, I go a bit ham sometimes with setting powder). But I honestly don’t think this prolongs your makeup drastically. I even sprayed it on one side of my face (covering the other) and both sides looked identical at the end of the day.
Now that’s not me saying this is a dreadful product by any means. As I said before, I love setting sprays for helping everything set together, and this does this as beautiful as the next.
But so do drugstore sprays and they’re like £8 vs £26.
I honestly feel like a lost wolf on my own in the wild. As in, I’m the only person not enamoured by this product….
Let me know what you think of it in the comments?
