Not a hair product, and worth saying so up front. This is a makeup setting spray, the last step once foundation, concealer and eyeshadow are done.

The 50ml bottle mists finely enough to settle over a full face without disturbing anything underneath. What it leaves is a weightless film that holds the makeup in place, blurs the look of fine lines and pores slightly, and stops a day of touching and warm weather from moving anything. Absolute New York put the wear at up to 16 hours.

It resists smudging and transfer, which is the practical difference between makeup that survives a commute and makeup that ends up on a shirt collar.

All skin types. Hold it at arm's length, mist in a light X and T across the face, and let it dry rather than blotting. The finish is fresh rather than tacky, and it works as a mid-afternoon refresher over makeup that has already settled.

Application tips

Prime the nozzle with one spray into the air the first time you use it, since small bottles often need it. Let foundation and concealer set for a minute before you mist, or the spray moves product that has not settled.

Take it lightly into the hairline and down over the jaw, the two places transfer starts. Cap it properly, because a fine mist nozzle clogs.

Results

Colour holds its edges. Eyeshadow keeps its blend instead of drifting into the crease, and blush stays at the same strength it went on at. Nothing goes crisp or chalky as it dries. Skin keeps a bit of movement under it, which matters more on a long day than any single number about wear time, and a warm room does not turn the base greasy.
