Products To Set Your Wedding Makeup

Modern Wedding Posted: October 2, 2020

No bride deserves for their makeup to be ruined by the end of the best day of their life. Whether you’re dancing the night away, basking in the afternoon sun, or just have a face that rejects makeup..we have you covered!! We have revised 10 ways (in no particular order) to keep your makeup looking flawless all.night.long!

Glow Getter…

Iconic London is, well, iconic for its ‘Prep-Set-Glow’ setting spray. This is a holy grail product that is responsible for the majority of glowing celebrities on Instagram, press photos, and red carpets! This cruelty-free, vegan spray locks in hydration, supplies a generous amount of glow and gives your skin the appearance of eight hours of sleep from being rich in caffeine. What more could you wish for after a few too many bubbles at midnight!

Ready…Set…Bake…

Let’s be honest, unless you’ve been living on a private island in the middle of nowhere, you’ll have heard the word “baking” being thrown around the makeup industry. The buzz word is revolutionary when it comes to keeping your makeup in place – just ask Kimmy K! Huda Beauty has made one of the best baking powders on the market. The creamy formula will ensure your makeup sits tight, looks smooth, and stays flawlessly buttery all day long. TIP: Press a brush or damp Beautyblender into the powder and apply under the eyes, the bottom of your cheekbones, and side of the nose. Leave to “bake” for a few minutes before sweeping off the excess with a large fluffy brush.

It’s Chanel Darling…

Name a better excuse than your wedding day to splurge on a Chanel setting spray…we’ll wait! The Hydra Beauty Essence Mist envelops the face with hydration, energy, and protection. An exclusive mix of active ingredients makes this the perfect finishing touch on your big day. Recommended for the bride looking to feel fresh and flawless.

Not Going Anywhere…

Not keen on setting sprays? Mac Studio Fix Powder is a great alternative. This full-coverage matte foundation powder guarantees non-cakey, staying power to last 24 hours plus! Highly recommended for oil-prone skin, dancing queens, or on a hot day. TIP: Press into the skin with the sponge provided and keep in your clutch bag for easy top-ups.

Matte Not Flat…

NYX Professional Makeup Matte Finishing Spray is a high-quality product but at a purse loving price! Loved by many makeup artists for its lightweight, non-sticky formula and shine-free finish.

Via NYX

YSL’s Top Secret…

2 in 1 hydrating setting spray by YSL…umm, yes, please! It’s one of the first on the market to include hyaluronic acid and glycerine, the two key ingredients for the ultimate skin-quenching hydration, and providing a youthful glow…Shh, don’t tell the other brands! If you are looking for a lightweight formula that leaves a veil of protection, as well as provide all-day hydration to the deeper layers of the dermis – this one is for you!

Via YSL

Mighty but Mini…

No excuse for melting, caking, or fading makeup! Morphe has changed the game with its Mini Continuous Setting Spray; meaning you can keep it nearby at all times (or your bridesmaid’s can). This air-powered spray delivers an even distribution of Vitamin E, B5, and fruit extract on top of setting any liquid or powder product with a radiant finish.

Via Morphe

Acceptable Airbrushing…

Charlotte Tilbury has created some outstanding products for brides; Pillowtalk lipstick, Wonderglow primer, and the list goes on. Airbrush Flawless Filter is certainly no exception, with it being the #1 Luxury Powder in the UK, and 1 gets sold every minute! This fine-milled powder will really transform your wedding photos as it smooths out your skin, blurs large pores, and provides the skin with the ultimate soft-focus finish. TIP: Use a shade slightly darker than your skin to avoid harsh flashbacks from flash photography.

Via Charlotte Tilbury

Fix It Up…

We could not write a blog about setting sprays without including the OG product, could we? MAC Cosmetics Fix+ Spray is in a league of its own and certainly has a version for everyone. Whether you are looking for radiance, matte finish, 4 different scents, or the new “Mood-Boosting” minis. Have Mac created the makeup industry’s collectible item?! In all seriousness, it is one of the best on the market as it naturally locks makeup in and refreshes the skin. We 100% recommend Fix Plus to any setting-spray beginners or to any makeup savvies, as it can also be used to intensify shimmer and glitter eye shadows/highlighters.

Via Mac Cosmetics

Healthy Skin…

Organic…✓ SPF…✓Free from chemicals and gluten…✓✓!! With nothing else like it on the market, COOLA Organic Makeup/ SPF Setting Spray is the perfect choice for a destination wedding or, just the babes looking to make a difference.
