e.l.f Makeup Mist and Set Review

I think I love this but for all the wrong reasons!

I found that this make up mist and spray did not in any way enhance and enable my make up to last all day. In all honesty, on top of my foundation or powder, it just made my face have a more 'dewyer' appearance.

I also found that my bottle leaked a lot? When it arrived from iHerb, the packaging of it was very wet. Aswell as this, when I would spray it, it would come out of the bottle in big droplets which wouldn't feel too flash on the skin :/

But infact i do love this product in the summer time or after i have cleansed my face! It is such a hydrating spray that cools down my skin and also my redness!

I have a love/hate relationship with this product but I guess you will need to try it for yourself!

Packaging- When I first purchased the product, the bottle was very leaky and everytime I used it the product would just pour out like a tap, so ended up just having to dab it onto my face. After a while, the spray pump started working properly and now I can use it without it spilling everywhere but it does still leak a little bit.

Product - I find this works really well for setting my makeup but does take about 5 - 10 minutes to sink in and work with my foundation. It's refreshing and doesn't have an unpleasant odor or create tackiness on the skin. It settles well.

Lasting power - I find that the mist and set doesn't really create a long lasting makeup like it says it would. I could easily go without it and my makeup wouldn't suffer or fade for it.

Overall- I have mixed feelings, I use this everyday just for the fact that I like the way it settles in with my makeup and is refreshing on the skin, however it doesn't help with fading or wear ability.

My makeup has a habit of disappearing. I put it on, I put on some more, I think 'I've got so much makeup on, if I slapped the back of my head my face would fall off!' And then instead of falling off, it just goes POOF into thin air after an hour or so. So after seeing some of the BR Beauties talk about this product I had to get it and give it a go.

What can I say... Wow!! It works! It's a little dark grey/black bottle of awesomeness.

After applying my makeup I close my eyes and give myself about three to four squirts and then off I go. Hours later my makeup is still there. Foundation, blush, eyeshadow and all!

What's more amazing is that it truly is radiance boosting! I selfied myself after one application and couldn't believe how my skin was glowing! It was the same makeup as I wear everyday, so I had to put the radiance down to the spray.

The only thing I'm not fond of is the smell, it kind of reminds me of vomit. Thankfully the aroma doesn't hang around for long.

So would I recommend you try this? Absolutely!

I've always been one of those people that put on a full face of makeup in the morning only for it to have strangely vanished or shifted by morning tea time. But that was before I got this fabulous little bottle of Mist and Set.

It is now an integral part of my daily routine to spray my face with this product before leaving the house for the day, feeling confident that not only does my makeup look better, but I'm much less likely to walk past a mirror later and be horrified by my reflection.

After applying all my makeup I simply spray two or three bursts of this product over the top, which gives my face a lovely dewy, radiant sparkle, which is particularly good for my aging skin. It seems to set my makeup somehow, so it does still wipe off if you rub your face, but doesn't fall off with just light touching or knocking. At only $10 it's well worth a try.

I tried this after not being too sure about it. I absolutely love it! Helps my makeup stay on all day and removes the powdery look I get sometimes.

First ever makeup mist I have tried.

When I first got this, the packaging was very sticky and wet.. I didn't open this till about 2 weeks after when it all dried up. Not a good first impression.

The first time I used it, it felt very nice and it did help my makeup last the whole day. It was also very refreshing. Once the mist was dry it helped my makeup not rub onto my clothes, etc, which was brilliant because this was a big problem for me. I got this for cheap on iHerb, which is always a plus.

On the down side, it made me break out a little..

I didn't really like this that much, it smells a bit funny and I didn't notice much of a difference in my makeup when I used it. The spay is good and it disperses product evenly. It is lightweight like it said but I don't think it did much. I use it to dampen my beauty blender before applying foundation to make it apply better and I really like it for that use

I don't mind the aweful smell at all, this has helped my foundation stay fresh and long lasting! Very affordable too!

My first impression of this product wasn't so great. When it arrived it was wet - but the bottle wasn't broken! I don't personally find this helps my makeup last any longer but I do like to apply this before putting on my foundation to moisturise and freshen up my face. I also find that the nozzle is quite stiff and that a lot of 'mist' comes out of one spray so I always apply the mist from a distance so that my face isn't drenched!

I was so excited to try this because everyone recommended this to me as my make-up is forever transferring onto my clothes and others!

When I first sprayed it I was like, "WOW that's a powerful spray" my face was literally wet. I don't know if make-up setting sprays are meant to be like that but I actually think it's a good thing because I know I got some on my face not just in the air!

Even though it made my face look and feel so wet my make-up didn't smudge or sorta disappear.

From using I don't notice any difference to be honest. My make-up doesn't last any longer and still transfers like crazy!!!

The packaging is great,it's really easy to use and store. And you can clearly see how much you have left which of course is handy.

It is super affordable but I still most likely won't ever repurchase again, however it does feel refreshing on a warm day.
