Maybelline Master Fix Setting + Perfecting Powder and Setting Spray by Face Studio ($9.99 and $12.99, respectively) are new, permanent products launching with the Maybelline Spring 2016 Collection.

If you’ve followed me for some time now, you’ll know that I fell head over heels over Laura Mercier’s Translucent Setting Powder so the thought of finding a drugstore (read: affordable) equivalent got me excited. This makeup setting powder is pure white which initially scared me because I’ve seen some horrible things happen when the flash of a camera goes off. It has a matte finish and no visible sparkle or shimmer making it good for all over the face.

That said, I’ll be sticking to my Laura Mercier. Why you ask? Because I’ve seen some horrible things happen when the flash of a camera goes off.

If you’re fair skin, this may be okay for you. Regarding the setting spray it’s the same thing as the L’Oreal Infallible spray. I haven’t noticed a HUGE difference with my makeup lasting all day. It is cooling and doesn’t leave my face feeling oily or slick, so it’s a good spray to use daily. Good but not great. That said, I much prefer my Urban Decay All Nighter or Model in a Bottle because those bad boys do not budge!
