Summer weather means hot summer temps that are not very makeup friendly…unless you have a great setting spray! I love setting sprays because I can go about my fun summer activities without having to constantly reapply my makeup.
Here are some of my favorites:
Urban Decay “All Nighter” Setting Spray
Of course, Urban Decay’s “All Nighter” setting spray is a no-brainer. It’s light and the spray nozzle makes applying it easily. My makeup will literally last all night when I wear this setting spray and it’s always been my go to! Even better, they also have a travel size spray that can fit in your purse or luggage to freshen up on the go.
Supergoop Rosemary
As I mentioned in my last post on SPFs, I absolutely love the brand Supergoop. Their three-in-one setting spray with rosemary is by far my favorite. It gives you a matte finish, smells amazing and has SPF 50 in it so it’s perfect for the beach or pool!
Mac Prep + Prime Fix +
Mac products are always high quality. Caroline loves the Mac Prep + Prime Fix + setting spray. The nozzle is amazing and distributes the spray evenly on your face. It’s lightweight and keeps your makeup in place all day. What’s great about this product is that it comes in different scents and colors! They have romantic rose, creamy coconut and calming lavender in addition to their original soothing herbal. Their products tend to run more on the expensive side, but they make travel size bottles for most of their popular products so this one is perfect to try if you’re on the fence!
Sephora brand
If you’re looking for a quality setting spray that won’t break the bank, the Sephora brand beauty amplifier set and refresh spray is for you. I love Sephora brand makeup for this reason because it’s quality yet inexpensive makeup. This setting spray doesn’t dry out your skin yet keeps your skin’s moisture in. I have naturally oily skin and this setting spray doesn’t leave my skin feeling oily!
NYX
Another inexpensive yet quality option is the NYX matte finish makeup setting spray. I first tried this when it was in an Ipsy box I received and I loved how small it was. It’s a perfect travel size setting spray. This is a “fan fave” on Ulta’s website, so you can’t go wrong with trying this one out!
Wet and Wild
Wet and Wild is another great brand that won’t break the bank. Their “photofocus” setting spray goes on smoothly with a nice spray nozzle that sprays evenly over your face. Bonus, it’s cruelty-free AND under $5!
Elf
Last but not least, Elf is such a great makeup brand. Their products are affordable and great quality. Caroline has been using the Elf “matte magic mist and set” and loves how it keeps her makeup in place all day long. And for $4? You can’t beat that! You can even pick this up at your local drugstore if you’re traveling.
There are some that I haven’t tried yet and have been dying to! I will be doing a haul soon but these are a few that I’ve heard of and wanted to share:

I swear by UD’s All Nighter spray! It’s a lifesaver for keeping makeup in place during the work week!

I’ve never heard of setting spray before, but I think I need the SuperGoop! It’s so hot and humid in south Texas it’s like being at the pool or beach! And the sun is brutul so the spf would be great.

I have the Sephora setting spray and use it on especially muggy days here in Texas. It’s a lifesaver! But now you have me eyeing that Supergoop…

I love UD’s all-nighter spray! I have the wet and wild as well as the ELF, I like both but the UD allnighter is my favorite. Mac Fix + is also awesome, especially for eyeshadow.

I love Supergoop because of its smell and its SPF is just right. So far, I have no plans of switching to another brand.
Laura Dove says
I never use a setting spray but perhaps I am doing it all wrong! I need to try one as I never look the same at the end of the night as I do at the start!

Thanks for the list. I have been on the hunt for a good one. I use the Loreal version and find my eyes start burning about 30 minutes after application.
Cara Newhart says
The all nighter spray is my go-to!
Mommy Sigrid says
There are so many new products and I honestly don’t know the best for me. It seems that every season, I would have to change products. During our vacation, I noticed that my skin was very dry and wrinkly because of the constant airconditioning and I haven’t prepared for it because I normally have oily skin. Now, that I am back, my skin looks better.
