Maybelline Master Fix Setting Spray Review

Over the past few years I have trialed and tested so many setting sprays, I will say with confidence that this setting spray is a drug store dupe for Urban decays All nighter setting spray, after weighing up how well they perform, they would go hand in hand, maybe even besties?

I have normal to combination skin and with that in mind, if I apply a medium to full coverage of makeup, most times it ends cakey, the powders and the liquids start to react and I have one powdery overloaded mess. Spraying this over the top absorbs all of the excess powders and seals the makeup. I can carry on with my day and not worry about my contour sliding down south after a few hours. Not to mention this works great with water, rain, sweat, its like a magical barrier that helps keep your makeup in place. It reminds me of that phrase "Take her swimming on the first date". We have had a few adventures to the swimming pool and with all the water that is splashed about, my makeup still looks flawless after each swimming day.

Another thing I like about this setting spray is you can spray this all over your face and eyes when you're wearing false lashes, I have noticed in the past that a lot of setting sprays will react with the eyelash glue and stops them from sticking, it can end up a horrible nightmare (speaking from experience) but you can spray this setting spray all over your face without any worries, you can also spray this onto your brush when applying eye shadow, it creates a foiled eye shadow and makes the eye shadow last all day, there is no need for eye shadow primer.

The mist that is released is small but sprays a large perimeter of mist, 2-3 sprays is more than enough to set your makeup. This also doesn't have a mask like feeling when you spray this on your face, it keeps my t-zone clear and its not oily at the end of the day which happens when I use All nighter from Urban decay.

This was sent in the Ball seasons Best beauty box ever and this has to be my most favorite product from Best beauty box ever. And Im sorry to say this Urban decay but I have officially ended our 3 years relationship.

I will be repurchasing more.

I received this in the Ball Season BBBE and I'm so glad that it was included! I have tried a couple of other drugstore setting sprays prior to using this Maybelline one, but this product has definitely been my favourite. The plastic bottle that it comes in was way bigger than I expected it to be. You get 100ml of product and it retails at $19.99, which I think is great value for money for a setting spray.

The nozzle sprays out this product in a fine, even mist. It feels lightweight on my face and it doesn't take long for it to dry. It also feels cool and refreshing on my face, so I think I'll enjoy this product even more during the hot summer months.

My skin can get quite oily around my nose, but I've found when I use this product I don't get oily at all. The other day I put on a full face of makeup in the morning to save time, as I was going out with friends later that night. I used this setting spray and it helped my makeup last all day. My eyeshadow and face makeup still looked perfect later that night, as if I had only just applied it.

The other great thing about this product is that it makes my makeup look even better. Sometimes I feel that my makeup looks a little powdery, but when I spray this product on my face it removes any sign of 'cake face'. It soaks up all the powder and leaves me looking flawless.

Overall this setting spray helps my makeup look perfect and it sets it in place so it lasts all day. I definitely plan to repurchase this when it runs out. Give this a go if you're looking for a decent setting spray that doesn't cost a ridiculous amount of money.

I'd never tried a setting spray prior to recieving this one in the ball season BBBE. Having a modest beauty budget at most times, I'd always kind of thought of it as an unnecessary makeup product. Well that thought has changed since i've been using this, i'm now sold on setting spray.

This spray pump disperses the product quite lightly as a very fine & cooling mist, it feels quite refreshing, not too wet and dries quickly. I was slightly concerned that it might affect the matte finish of my foundation, but it doesn't seem to. This product performs as promised and keeps makeup on point and in place throughout the duration of use.

This setting spray has convinced me that it's definitely worth having, and I think that the $20 RRP is very reasonable. I'll definitely purchase this setting spray in future and highly recommend!

I've been ogling for this mist since last year so glad NZ got on board with it. A sleek bottle that isn't transparent, which is a peeve for me because I love to see where I'm at with product. However the bottle has branding on it in pink & white. It has a lift of lid easy to remove. The spray itself emits just enough product & isnt invasive. I don't it has an offensive scent at all. The price point is the most appealing part for the amount of product for just under $20 it's a winner. The spray definitely helps with my makeup lasting & takes the cakey look.

Yes! Yes! Yes! I love this setting spray. The packaging is cute, it keeps my makeup in check and ON my face during a busy day and I just can't fault this beauty at all. Will definitely be purchasing again when this bottle runs out x

I purchased this setting spray from a makeup sale for $10, which is such a bargain! I didn't know if I needed one but when I see a product I don't have, I really have to try it out to see if it's what I need. The spray comes in a cute black bottle with white writing and 100mls size is great value. You just shake it up and spray it on after applying your makeup. The spray comes out in a very fine mist and is nice and even on your face. It feels really refreshing, not sticky at all and drys nicely. Works good at keeping my makeup in place all day. It's a great product!

Like a lot of other lucky beauties I was lucky enough to receive this in the ‘ball season’ BBBE. I was in two minds excited and anxious, I kind of gave up on setting sprays after a bad experience with one that made my skin feel like it couldn’t breathe. And I never normally need it as I never find my makeup fading or melting away or not lasting the distance, or maybe I still have a lot to learn, maybe it does look terrible to an outsider? Ha anyway

The black spray bottle is nothing fancy but it does the trick in fact I quite like it but then I LOVE black, with white writing and a bright pink strip near the bottom of the bottle It’s not really like anything else in my collection.

After I do my face I grab the bottle and read the back for the instructions- don’t laugh I have been caught once or twice not reading the instructions properly first. ‘Hold 8-10” from face’ one would assume that is in inches. And ‘spray 4-6 times’.. crikey that seems a lot but ok. I hold It about 30cm from my face and spray 3 pumps, just as I thought, 4-6 sprays would be far too much. I notice a bit of a sweet scent but it’s nothing I can really put my finger on just a makeup scent, after a few seconds it’s gone anyway, it sprays a super duper fine mist it’s kind of refreshing.

I stand back and admire my face it looks really dewy which I LOVE, I do have really dry skin so anything dewy or satin finish gets more love from me. Over the course of the day I keep checking my face to see what it looks like and it looks great every time I think it does keep my face looking that wee bit fresher than it normally does. As for the feeling on my skin? I can’t even notice it. I can’t even feel if I have it on or not.

I am now nearly halfway through the bottle and the mist nozzle still works fine it hasn’t clogged up with product like I thought it might have and I am still loving it, and I can still feel my face breathing. It’s a winner for me and I will repurchase.

I got this in a BBBE & it has become a welcome addition to my routine. I have oily/combination skin & after applying all my makeup, I spray and go! Makeup lasts all day. The spray itself is light, and feels refreshing. Little odour, and the bottle itself is a good size to fit in my cabinet, travel bag, but will also last well.

I think at $20 I may just be repurchasing this wee gem.

Absolutely love this! Great price especially compared to many others with much smaller bottles! The larger bottle does however mean it’s not as convenient to pop in your handbag. It disperses pretty well and evenly from it’s spray applicator and really helps set my makeup and my makeup last all day with it instead of fading or sliding off. It doesn’t leave a sticky feeling or shiny look as some do. Will definitely re purchase!

I received this in the The Ball Beauty Box, which has since sold out. I had never tried a make up spray before this one, so I was interested to see if it actually helped keep my makeup in place.

It actually works! Even though I use a primer everyday, I would still find that my foundation would move around during the day, as well as any concealer I had applied over the top. However, after using this spray my foundation and concealer stays in place. The only time it moves is if I rub my face, or apply makeup remover.

Since it is the only fixing spray I have used I cannot say if it works any better or worse than any other brands, but I am happy with this product. It comes in a simple black pump bottle and it is easier to spray on. The only drawback is the smell, which is a little on the chemical side, but the scent fades pretty quickly.
