I have a couple of other setting sprays, but this was the first one I ever tried one the existence of such a product came to my attention.
Firstly, I really appreciate that I get an even mist across my face when spraying this. There is nothing worse than random squirts of liquid that leave drops across your prepped makeup!
It definitely helps my makeup last all day, and doesn't feel like I have added a heavy extra step to my routine.
One word of caution - and the reason I might not repurchase - is that you really really REALLY need to give it a good shake before use. There is white residue in the formula which you need to mix well into the liquid before spritzing yourself. I have sadly had a day where I quickly sprayed my face before racing out the door, only to see tiny flecks of white residue pop appear on my face once it had settled into my skin.
I am in two minds about the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Fixing Mist.
On one hand I like it. It is definitely the nicest smelling fixing mist I have used. It also helps extend my make up look as promised. And the bottle is a reasonable size.
On the other hand, it's lovely smell adds a bunch of chemicals that the alternative I use doesn't have. And both otherwise perform fairly similarly.
So ultimately, this one will be the best if you like a bottle with plenty of product and a lovely smell.
In terms of using the product. I find a couple of sprays about 30 cm away from my face does give the make up a real boost. If I've set my make up with a setting powder, then added this, I find after a night out dancing, apart from a sweaty glow, my make up looks nearly as good at the end of the night as it did at the beginning.
I think the packaging is a little plain, but it's functional and as long as the spray bottle works, that is the most important thing.
