What it is: A skincare-powered setting spray that weightlessly hydrates, blurs to a soft-focus finish, and locks makeup in place for 16 non-creasing hours.
Formulation: Mist
Ingredient Callouts: Free of parabens, phthalates, sulfates SLS & SLES, and contains less than one percent synthetic fragrance.
What Else You Need to Know: Lock in flawless looks for 16 hours with the backstage essential that drenches skin in lasting hydration, blurs imperfections, and creates a radiant, multidimensional finish. A whisper-thin veil resists heat, humidity, and smudging—keeping your makeup fresh, smooth, and runway-ready all day.
As a makeup girlie, I’ve tried what feels like every setting spray on the market. I love testing new products, so it takes a lot for something to truly impress me. The Pat McGrath Blurring Setting Spray has exceeded all of my expectations.
I’ve been using it for the past week, and it is absolutely worth every penny. The nozzle is amazing. The mist is incredibly fine and evenly distributes product across the entire face. There are no heavy droplets or uneven spots, just a perfect light mist.
I have oily skin with acne scarring, and this is the first setting spray I’ve used that truly melts all of my makeup together and gives me that flawless, picture-perfect finish. Everything looks seamless, smooth, and beautifully blended.
I regularly work 12- to 14-hour days, and my makeup lasts. I only need minimal touch-ups throughout the day, usually just a little powder once or twice in the areas where I naturally get oily. Even after a long day, my makeup still looks fresh and polished.
As someone who has tried countless makeup products over the years, this has quickly become one of my favorites. If you’re looking for a setting spray that helps your makeup last, keeps everything looking flawless, and performs beautifully on oily skin, I highly recommend it.
100/100. I would recommend this to anybody and everybody.

A must-have!
I love love this setting spray! It creates a blurring effect but also hydrates which is so helpful when my skin can feel dry after doing makeup. My makeup lasts all day after using this!

Perfect Blurring/Glass Skin ✨️💯
Had to take a second to rave about how GREAT this spray is 😍 I have texture, fine lines, rosacea, and acne (at times) just for reference. This was no problem at all, and it did everything it described on the label WITHOUT irritating or breaking my skin out ❤️😭
Cried a couple of times one day at work, and it surprisingly didn't budge my makeup or even mess up the blurring effect 👏
I've also used it with and without makeup, and it still had the same effect without irritating my skin!
Held up to a sweaty 10-hour work shift, and my makeup still looked so good when I got home, I didn't want to take my makeup off LOL.
Very very hydrating as well. You don't need a lot; even with dry skin, it easily gives glass skin effect!
Okay, I'm done now. BUY THE SPRAY, YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!

Allergic Reaction (List of Comparisons in Review)
My makeup did last the usual amount (i was expecting a lot but I'd say this is pretty similar to the effect that the Charlotte Tilbury setting spray has). BUT, and this is a big BUT, I had an allergic reaction to this. My skin has hives/bumps all over and my face is stiff and puffy.
I'm not sure why bc the ingredient callout list is pretty standard, but it might've been the synthetic fragrance.
For reference for others who may have sensitive skin like me and are hoping for some comparison, the setting sprays that work on me and don't make me allergic are: the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Setting Spray, Rare Beauty Setting Spray, OneSize Setting Spray, OneSize Setting Spray (the one in the hairspray looking can), and Makeup By Mario Setting Spray.
I was hoping to get something with more hold than my glowy ones (since I have dry skin) but boy oh boy did I choose wrong. I'm glad this works for so many people though!

I bought a second bottle 2 weeks later! Holygrail!
At first could tell the difference. But towards the kids day I realized this makeup has a delayed effect! It blurred my skin and made my makeup look so burry and beautiful! So yes, use it and forget about it but check your makeup about 1-2hrs later
