So I haven't ventured much into the world of setting sprays. I've used like two setting sprays one from Tarte and Mac Fix+. I'm anyone has an recommendations on a setting spray that:
1. Holds makeup in place.
2. Has a fine mist till the end of the bottle. None of that caught in the rain look or white dots.
3. Is alcohol free. (Since I don't like to use one with alcohol every day and the ones with alcohol evaporate so quickly.)
4. Isn't too pricey for the ammount you get. I don't mind spending around 50 bucks on a good reliable setting spray the ticks the boxes, but if it's a 30-75ml bottle it's kinda expensive for the long term.
Would love recommendations.

Alcohol Free Setting Spray Recommendations?

My mind immediately went to the cult classic - Urban Decay's All Nighter Setting Spray. But looking at the ingredients, it does contain denatured alcohol. If denatured still works for you, then I really can't recommend it enough. I am absolutely devoted to this stuff!
If you have a Mecca store near you then the lovely ladies there will happily help you test it out. Otherwise you can buy a travel size for $26 which will give you 30ml.

Labmuffin has a good article on why most setting sprays contain alcohol and how they work:

Ugh, I had to start another post. Not only can I not put a nice short link in, everything I then typed afterwards also looked like a link (I’m using an iPad and have never been able to use the link function on here properly).
Anyways.......I’ve had a sample of Urban Decay All Nighter. I found the spray on it a bit ‘spurty’ I’ve also used the Mecca Cosmetica setting spray and that has a super fine spray (so much so, I’ve kept the bottle for refilling). I’m currently using the NYX one I got in the vault. Again, it’s quite spurty. I think all of thse contain alcohol of some sort. I don’t find any of them drying though. I preferred the MC out of the three, although it is quite fragranced.
