To lock makeup in place for extended wear, preventing smudging, fading, and transfer.
A fine mist liquid that sprays evenly over the face. It feels lightweight and should dry down without a heavy or sticky feel, thanks to volatile solvents like Butylene Glycol and Propanediol.
Dewy Finish
Luminous, Hydrated, and Glowy. Creates a fresh, radiant look with a subtle sheen, not glitter.
Targeted Benefits & Skin Types:
- Dry, Normal, or Dull Skin: The formula is geared towards adding hydration and a healthy glow.
- Seeking Radiance: For those who want their skin to look plump, fresh, and lit-from-within.
Key Benefit-Boosting Ingredients:
- Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): Soothes, hydrates, and improves skin barrier function.
- Ectoin: A powerful protective ingredient that helps shield skin from environmental stress and locks in moisture.
- Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Improves skin elasticity, minimizes pores, and evens tone.
- Rosa Damascena Flower Water: Provides light hydration and a soothing, pleasant scent.
- Film-Forming Polymers (VP/VA Copolymer, Polyurethane-10, etc.): Create a flexible, breathable shield over makeup to lock it in place.
Functional Ingredients:
- Propanediol (high on list): A humectant and solvent that provides primary hydration and a dewy feel.
- PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil: Helps disperse ingredients evenly and can contribute to a smooth, moisturized finish.
Matte Finish
Shine-Free, Velvet, and Pore-Blurring. Eliminates excess oil and glow, leaving a smooth, perfected look.
Targeted Benefits & Skin Types:
- Oily, Combination, or Shine-Prone Skin: Designed to control sebum throughout the day.
- Seeking Long-Lasting Perfection: For those who want their makeup to stay perfectly in place without becoming shiny.
Key Benefit-Boosting Ingredients:
- Niacinamide (higher on the list): Placed earlier in the Dewy variant, indicating a potentially higher concentration for its oil-regulating and pore-minimizing effects.
- Ectoin & Panthenol: Still present to provide soothing and protective benefits, preventing the matte finish from being drying or irritating.
- Rosa Damascena Flower Water: Offers a soothing counterbalance to oil-control.
- Film-Forming Polymers (same as Dewy): Create the essential flexible, long-wear shield.
Functional Differences:
- Phenoxyethanol (first after water): As the preservative, this placement shift suggests a different ratio of ingredients, with less emphasis on humectants and more on oil-controlling polymers.
- The formula relies more on the acrylates copolymer to create a smoother, oil-absorbing film.
Both sprays effectively set makeup using the same core film-forming technology. The choice comes down to your desired finish and skin need. Choose Dewy for added hydration and a radiant glow. Choose Matte for superior oil control and a shine-free, perfected complexion. The inclusion of Panthenol, Ectoin, and Niacinamide in both makes them more skincare-inclusive than basic setting sprays.
