Spray to set cosmetics specifically powder
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
The product is very nice after applying dry powder to face; spray is perfect however it very strong smelling and you need to be careful not to spray to close to eyes even while shut. Has a burning effect if you spray near cornors of eyes.

Goes great with pressed powder foundation!
Size: 0.4 fl oz (Pack of 1)
I purchased the mini size of this product to keep in my purse. I use the mist with my Jane Iredell pressed powder foundation. I use one spray after the application of Powder and then I use again in the afternoon just for a refresh. It makes my skin glow. It’s lightweight and the application is easy. It doesn’t make the powder feel heavy on my face. highly recommend.
