Hello everyone!
You have probably noticed
that most make-up setting sprays can be quite pricey, but this DIY setting
spray is very affordable. It has
only 2 ingredients and it is healthy for your skin. What more could you
ask for?
You will need:
- vegetable glycerin
- rose water
- small spray/mister bottle
Method:
The recipe calls for a 1:10 glycerin to distilled water ratio. I like to substitute
the water with rose water. Instead of
just water, you could also use a mixture of water, rosewater and witch hazel.
- Measure the glycerin and put it into the spray bottle.
- Add the rose water.
- Shake to amalgamate the ingredients together.
Spray before you apply any make-up
as a primer and again after you have applied your make-up to seal it in place. Don’t
hold the spray bottle too close, you don’t want to get your face wet!
Just a slight mist will do.
This spray helps set your foundation or powder to achieve a
flawless look that will last all day. It's
also great to spray on mid-day to refresh your make-up.
Always shake well before use to redistribute the
mixture.
Tip: Because this
mixture is all natural and preservative free you will need to keep it in the
fridge. It will last about 3 weeks and
then you should make a new batch.
It keeps your make-up set
for hours, plus, glycerin will hold moisture in your skin!
You’ll love it!
I actually use Boots brand Glycerin & Rosewater liquid as a moisturiser and it's a great make-up base so I'd imagine this one would work rather well too :) Never thought of using it a setter...going to try that now, thanks!
