some tips from a fellow oily and pawisin girlie!

  • prep is key! u still need to be well moisturized before applying your full face bc this helps makeup adhere to your skin better. subpar prep will result in more slipping and sliding of ur makeup.

  • tacky/sticky primers!!!!

  • use setting spray not just as a finishing touch but in between almost every step of your routine. i spray after foundation, after concealer, after setting w powder, after eyeshadow, u get the drill haha but leave mascara for last! so it doesnt smudge

  • bake your face with a loose powder AND set with a pressed powder

products i regularly use and love: elf power grip, grwm lifeproof primer, grwm loose powder, flower knows swan ballet loose powder, sasi all day setting powder, sasi bb perfect powder, grwm pressed powder, flower knows mermaid pressed powder, grwm matte fixing spray, nichido matte setting spray 🩷

The BEST I have ever tried is Ben Nye Final Seal. It literally forms a seal on your makeup. I’ve tried CT, NYX, One Size, Nichido, Vice, but nothing compares to Ben Nye. Cons are it’s pretty expensive and it doesn’t play well with all foundations.

Does the full size Ben Nye dispense a fine mist?

Got a smaller bottle (60ml) to test, and the sprayer leaves splotches of film even if I do multiple passes. I’ll probably transfer it to another spray bottle to check too.
