Bare With Me Multitasking Face Primer & Makeup Setting Spray, Hydrating Face Mist for up to 8HR Wear, Long-Lasting, Vegan Formula

Finally a primer/setting/refreshing spray that works and is affordable! This product leaves my skin hydrated without the sticky feeling. I use it as a primer and setting spray and it blurs my makeup instead of making it flaky and dry looking. If there is a smell, it’s very light and fresh and nothing that lingers. I also have to say that the fine mist spray is awesome. So many times I’ve purchased setting sprays the spray bottle is awful and more like a jet instead of a fine mist. I even bought fine mist bottle to pour my setting sprays into but NYX actually got it right with this spray nozzle. This is my new favorite setting spray!

easy applicate , dries fast, does not leave skin sticky great on skin

This mist feels lovely on the skin and works really well for hydrating and refreshing throughout the day, no doubt about that. My issue is with its priming and setting power. Personally I think the other NYX spray is much better at that part. This spray will definitely melt your makeup together nicely, but I don’t notice my makeup staying on any better or longer than it does naturally. And as for priming, I think it is alright at helping makeup go on nicely but doesn’t do anything for pores, blurring, anything like that. It’s mainly just hydration you’re getting out of this product, which is fine for the “bare” look this line is known for, but not super helpful in more medium to full coverage makeup looks. If you want one product that does multiple things just “okay” then this is it for you, but if you need the benefits to really stand out, single-purpose products like a blurring primer or long lasting setting spray might be a better route.

UPDATE: I re-purchased this product somewhere else and it smells fine. The product itself is great. I spray it on clean moisturized skin as a primer, let dry. Then after I finish applying my makeup, I spray again to set my makeup. It keeps my makeup in place and it hydrates my skin. The sprayer works well, it’s a fine mist but in a concentrated area so it doesn’t go all over the place and get on my hair and clothing. I really love this product! FIRST REVIEW (1 star): It smells like mildew!!! When I spray it on my face it has a mildew after smell! Even the spray nozzle smells like mildew. I unscrewed the cap and the liquid inside the bottle does not have that smell. It’s puzzling!! I even poured some in a completely different sprayer and it still has an after smell of mildew. Did I get an old bottle?? I returned it. So disappointing bc I really wanted to love the product. Things like this are why I am very skeptical ordering certain cosmetic products on Amazon.

Ive purchased so many setting sprays. This exceeds expectations. Refreshing, lightweight, hydrating and also leaves my make up looking flawless. The bottle is big too so I know this will last me. Love it

Why I don't see SO many beauty influencers & makeup artists gushing about this setting spray will forever confuse me! I've tried so many setting sprays-- I use them to set AND prime my makeup bc I hate primers. I thought I was stuck with Elf's Matte Setting Spray & that was as good as it was going to get. It worked better than everything else drugstore-wise, but still failed most days. I bought this on a whim & I'm so glad I did. This is it. This is The One. It comes in a bigger bottle, which I love, & it stays at a great price point. This keeps my makeup perfect for 12 hrs+! If I'm too tired to wash my face before bed, I wake up with my makeup still in place. This is THE BEST setting primer/setting spray I've ever used.

The product is fine but comes without a cap, improper packaging information

Every so often a multi-colour dramatic eye look is IT. Best way I’ve found is apply colours wet. Perhaps this formula, being both a primer & a setting spray, is why it works so well for the technique. A light mist of the brush gives enough moisture to pick up & deposit shadows evenly. The colour payoff is worth the extra step! Great for defining the lash line in colour, too. (I do apply eye primer first to help with my crepey lid texture & discolouration.)
