How to use make-up setting spray?
Apply it as soon as you finish make-up. Spray it on the face at a distance of approx. 20 inches. Glycerin, on the one hand, keeps make-up in place all day long, and, on the other hand, moisturizes the skin. DIY setting spray works great both in summer and winter.
After application, the skin feels slightly tight and the cosmetic may clog skin pores (a side effect of preventing the unwanted shine). A make-up setting spray blocks the outlets of sebum glands. That’s why it’s better to use it from time to time, before big events. An everyday use of a fixer could disturb the function of sebaceous glands and make your skin much worse.
