I rely on Mally's Face Defender to set my makeup most of the time, but I also use Laura Geller's Spackle Mist Boost Setting Spray- love the scent of this one.  Smiley Happy

The alcohol is what makes it dry down and make your makeup last. That would be your final step. I am using Tarte life lock which  has none so I am not sure how it makes your makeup llast but it does

@MrsCat21   There are some that must be hydrating. Denatured Alcohol can have acetone, solvents and other ingredients which are drying to the skin. They also keep the setting spray from staying wet on the skin and drying more quickly. 

 

I wish I could recommend one with out alcohol, but that's one of the reasons I don't use one.

The new Tarte life lock has no alcohol in it. It’s pretty hydrating.

And I wish the Q still carried the Urban Decay line.
