Did you know it contains alcohol? Yes, the directions say to spray in an X and to be sure YOUR EYES ARE CLOSED. Many warnings about getting it your eyes.

I just purchased it, too, although I have been using the MAC Fix Plus and liking it. After I got it, I saw that it has alcohol and then watched some YOUTUBE reviews (like Wayne Goss) who said not to use it regularly because of the alcolhol.

Sigh.

Good luck!

Yes, this is why many of the WEN ladies here use the RTM as a setting spray - no alcohol. I've recently started using this, as well.

I often use a product I found at WF as a setting spray. Rosewater & Glycerin by Heritage Store. Ingredients: Vor-mag water, vegetable glycerin, and rose damascena (hydroessential rose) flower oil. It's around $8.

Re: directions for using setting spray for makeup

Whatever way works. I am a fan however of the X and the T. I use the Urban Decay's All Nighter most often summer evenings when its humid when I am going out. Otherwise, more of a fan of Hourglass setting products.

It does work well. However, if you are really oily, you may want to try Urban Decay's De-Slick spray. You can spray prior to applying makeup AND after your makeup application. I guarantee your makeup will not go anywhere!
