It definitely helps. I have really oily skin and although it doesn't make it disappear I do notice a difference. I'm about to buy my second bottle =]

I got a sample of UD All Nighter setting spray, and have been testing it out for the past week or so. To be completely honest with you, it doesn't seem to make a difference to me. Of course, that's just based on my opinion/anatomy. Could work differently for everyone!

I use Evian spray to set. It makes my skin look very natural & despite being water it keeps oil away most of the day.

Caudalie Beauty Elixir: perfect for that nasty, reprocessed airplane air. Part-toner, part-serum of essential oils and plant active ingredients, this all natural mist smells delish, refreshes and soothes and provides an instant burst of life back into your mug.

I’m traveling with my 1oz bottle (airplane approved!) and misting the entire flight to Paris. It’s like the Crystal of water spritzers (so much more decadent than Evian mist). You can also spray onto a cotton pad and apply like a traditional toner.

Caudalie is a French skincare line…

Yep. I've had it used on my face for shows but unsure about longevity because I'm usually done after 3 hours and then I immediately remove all makeup so as far as longevity of product...no clue.

For me no, but I have super oily skin. I use mineral veil by Bare Minerals and that is fantastic for me...

Yes! I love my skindinavia setting spray. If I have a major blemish I may have to touch up my concealer once or twice but it keeps my makeup really fresh looking all day. It's great for dry skin like mine that looks cakey when set with powder

Another thing I think helps set mine is Victoria's Secret mattifier. Anti-shine fx oil free mattifying gel. I'm not really oily but I use it for a tiny bit of shine and it keeps my makeup on. At first I didn't like it but I was using too much. Now I love it!

Yes they do work. Even ELF's $3 one has worked for me.

I'm a SFX MUA and if you want a super fixer use Kryolan fixer spray. It's 10$ and I had a 9 girl Photoshoot and they were all going under water multiple times and I did not have to touch any of them up it was beauty makeup for a film. And for a shorter day I have used the Elf for a last min resort and it worked surprisingly well. Hope this helps :)
