Is setting spray better or setting powder better? At which step should setting spray be used?

Setting spray is a spray used to set makeup. It has the same effect as loose powder. Many of us will choose setting spray or loose powder according to our own habits. So let's find out which is better, setting spray or loose powder? At which step is setting spray used?

It is not possible to say which is better between setting spray and loose powder. Setting spray: The setting spray bottle has its own nozzle, and no other makeup tools are needed. It can dissolve the facial makeup and the ingredients of the setting spray together. Moisturizers can increase the moisture of the skin and prevent skin dryness. Loose powder is more suitable for oily skin, such as oily skin, or oily skin in summer. Setting powder cannot be sprinkled directly on the face, and needs to be applied with a powder brush, powder puff or beauty egg. The basic ingredients of loose powder are generally fine "talcum powder", and are compounded with silica, mica, various colorants, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and other powders. In addition to setting makeup, loose powder can also be used to eliminate the greasy feeling of our bangs.

Setting spray can be used before or after makeup. Using it before makeup is the first step. The purpose is to make the makeup more adherent. Spray the spray first to moisturize. Using it after makeup is the last step. After the makeup is completed, spray it on the whole face in a spray form about 30-40cm away from the face to set the makeup. This can reduce powder marks, make up for a long time, and moisturize. Compared with loose powder, each has its own advantages. Setting spray has the effect of moisturizing, while loose powder has the effect of absorbing oil. The two can also be used together. The main function of the spray is to moisturize the skin and relieve sensitivity. So many people wait for the skin to absorb moisture after spraying it on the face. In fact, the spray is different from other skin care products. The ingredients are relatively simple. If you don’t press it to absorb excess moisture after use, the spray water will evaporate and take away some of the moisture on the surface of the skin, which will make the skin drier.

The film-forming agent of makeup setting spray is acrylic acid and methacrylic acid. The film-forming agent of makeup setting spray means that after the makeup setting spray is sprayed on the face, the film-forming agent can form a thin film on the skin surface to achieve the effect of setting makeup. The film-forming agent has the functions of waterproof, sweat-proof and oil-proof paper, so that the skin will not be smudged or removed for a long time. The basic composition of makeup setting spray is composed of water + moisturizer + film-forming agent. The principle of makeup setting spray is that the film-forming agent in it can blend the powder and water together, reduce the gap, and form a thin film on the makeup, which helps to lock the makeup on the face, delay the oil production of the skin, and thus reduce the floating powder. When we usually apply foundation on our face, sometimes it will cause powder to stick, making the makeup look not so docile. After using makeup setting spray, the phenomenon of powder sticking and makeup removal will be significantly improved.
