Does anyone use a setting spray and do we really need it? I have never used one so not sure if I need it.
Ulta has a Tarte and Charlotte Tilbury Setting Spray coming up in the 21 Days of Beauty.

@MrsCat21 I've never used setting spray on myself. I never have makeup on that long that I need something to keep on for many hours. I have however used it on brides. Be sure if you purchase it be sure it doesn't have alcohol...many of them do.

It is a non-negotiable? Who knows, but I use one. Currently I'm using one from NYX. I like Milani Make It Last better so I'll eventually get back to it. I also use setting spray to dampen my eyeliner brush. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think it helps the eyeliner to stay put better.

@MrsCat21 - Most of the time when wearing makeup, I use a setting spray. Sometimes I notice my face makeup seems to fade quickly so setting sprays help keep that from happening. I have used the Charlotte Tilbury one that will be offered during ULTA's sale. It's good and for a high end choice, I think it's one of the better ones. The Charlotte Tilbury spray on sale is the travel size and it's a decent amount so if you want to try a setting spray wthout paying full price, the travel size would give you enough to try it out for quite a while. Have not tried the TARTE setting spray.
Drugstore version I have had good luck with the Milani Make It Last original version. Don't know if it's alcohol free as I don't have a bottle of it right now.

My all time favorite setting spray is NYX Bare With Me Prime, Set, Refresh Multitasking Spray. This setting spray is only $9.99 and it has such a fine and nice mist. My makeup lasts through weightlifting and aerobics thanks to this setting spray. Love it- I've used it as a primer and I've used it as a setting spray. It works on my oily/combo skin.

I've always disliked setting sprays because it seemed counter-intuitive to put something wet on my face after putting my makeup on. However, I found Elf Power Grip Dewey Setting Spray. It has a "shockingly fine" mist. You might find it cheaper at full price than the others on sale. I don't remember what I paid for it, but Elf is usually very reasonable.

Yes, I've been using a setting spray in the last several years.
I use Fix+ by Mac and it works to hold my makeup in place all day.
I feel it helps the clean beauty items I have been using recently, especially cream blush. It stays all day without reapplication. Cream blush never lasted on me until I began using a setting spray.
I liked UD Up All Night too. When I was finished with that, I tried Mac.
They're both pretty good.
