Homemade MAC Fix + Makeup Setting Spray DIY Recipe Under $5

How to Make Makeup Setting Spray

Makeup setters are one way cosmetics companies keep you coming back for more. They make a product that slips off your face super easily and then they sell you a makeup setter that costs double what it should. Then when you run out, you have to buy more or the makeup you are wearing could be running down your face at any time of the day.

It is possible to make your own homemade makeup setter though. It is a great product that can also be used to make your hair shine or it can make your face powder less dull so it doesn’t look like you have to much makeup on.

Homemade Makeup Setter Ingredients

Homemade Makeup Setter Directions

1. Mix the glycerin with the water and store in a spray bottle or water bottle.

Depending on your type of skin, from oily to dry, you may need to add more or less water and glycerin. If you have oily skin, try a mostly water recipe or if you have dry skin, try adding only two cups of water instead of three.
