This product is absolutely awful for setting your makeup. It doesn't work, and unless you're looking for an extremely, extremely dewy, to the point of looking almost greasy look, this will not give you a good finish. I know it seems convenient, and thats why I bought it. I thought to myself Wow, I don't have to use powders all the time now, getting setting powder all over the floor and my clothes. But no, you are going to still need setting and matifying powder after using this.
That being said, this product doesn't belong in the garbage just yet. It actually has some great uses otherwise, so all of you ladies with dry skin, listen up!
I absolutely love spraying this on immediately after applying facial moisturizer. It really helps amplify the effectiveness of your moisturizer, and helps lock it in all day long.
Now, imagine yourself on a hot summer day at the beach, the sun beating down on you, you're just trying to tan but you're starting to sweat, and frankly, you don't really feel like getting into the water, so, just pull this out of your beach bag and give your face, arms, legs, and neck a spritz. It is so amazingly refreshing, you almost wont believe it. I think it might have to do with the cucumber, but I'm not positive. You can even use it after going for a walk or run outside, or when the heat just gets too much to handle.
I also really like the scent of this product. I have really sensitive skin and scents usually are not a good thing, but this scent is so light it doesn't even matter.
Get To The Point...
What's To Love:
-Refreshing
-Not tested on animals!
-Nice light scent
-Locks in moisture, even on very dry skin
-Lives up to most of it's claims
What's To Not:
-Does not set makeup
-Can give a greasy look if used wrong
-If too much is used, it can begin to feel sticky
Final Thoughts
This product, over all, is pretty good. If you are a dry skinned lady, I would suggest trying this. If you're looking for a refreshing spray for the heat and summer time, I would also suggest trying this. If you're looking for a convenient spray to set your makeup, I would strongly discourage you from using this, it does not do that what so ever.
