15 Setting Sprays From Target To Help Your Makeup Last

BuzzFeed-Shopping·2025-06-17 05:05

1. An E.l.f. setting spray with hero hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid and squalane — because dewy skin is a vibe, and you totally deserve it.

Target

Promising review: "I have super dry skin so I need all the “dewy” I can get. It really helps my make up last and takes away the powder finish from the products I use. It’s not oily and the smell doesn’t really bother me. I love it and I will be buying again when I’m done with the bottle." —Nataly

Price: $10

2. A 3-in-1 Milani spray that promises up to 24 hours of natural-looking coverage, as well as hydrating and illuminating your complexion. Why work harder when you can work smarter, right?! Shoppers say it's suitable for sensitive skin, which is a plus.

Target

Promising review: "I've tried more expensive setting sprays and none have compared to this one! It lasts awhile and feels light and refreshing on my skin, while also making my makeup look and stay perfect! It's a great primer too whenever I need touch-ups after a long (sweaty) day lol. I have rather sensitive skin and I have never had issues with it causing break-outs or anything like that. Will re-purchase always!" —TAH96

Price: $11.99+ (available in two sizes)

3. Or this dewy finish spray, also by Milani, if you love everything you heard about the previous one, except for the words "natural finish." This one doesn't last as long, but let's be honest — 16 hours of glam is more than enough.

Target

Promising review: "I finished my makeup with this product and worked 12 hours. I got many compliments on my makeup and nothing beats it's stay power!" —April

Price: $11.99

4. A Nyx mattifying spray if you have oily skin, despite all the dewy talk going around, thank you very much, and actually require a bit less shine sometimes.

Target

Promising review: "I've been using this setting spray for over a year. It's the only one I trust since it's unscented and won't cause any breakouts. I use it in between applying my makeup and after baking, I apply my powder, and it lasts all day! I wear a full beat each time and experience no creasing even after 10-12 hours. Just wish NYX would make a gigantic size of it lol." —Cool Mom

Price: $9.99

5. A bottle of Maybelline setting spray also with a matte finish for my oily-skin people. Shoppers say you only need to use four sprays for makeup that stays put for hours, which means your money is going to go a loooooong way.

Target

Promising review: "I got Maybelline Lasting Fix on sale a few months back. I'm never using anything else! I'm an oily mess year-round, and this product kept me matte for 16 hrs. I'm sure it would've gone longer had I not washed my face before bed. Lasting Fix rivals the well-known and loved luxury brand, and dare I say, this works better! As long as Maybelline keeps making it, I'll keep buying. Some reviewers say it works for them, while others don't. You need to try things for yourself. What works for some may not work for others, and vice versa." —Lisa

Price: $10.19

6. An oil-free spray from Urban Decay that also comes in a travel-size bottle so you can keep your makeup looking flawless, even on holiday. It'd be rude not to book that flight, when you're going to be looking this slay, right??

Target

Promising review: "literally got washed downstream in the rain and my makeup was still intact afterwards" —mfklamkdl

Price: $18+ (available in two sizes)

7. An extra special Nyx spray that's a primer, setting spray, *and* refreshing spray. Plus, it's infused with aloe and cucumber extract, so you just know it's going to feel deliciously refreshing and cooling on those sticky summer days. Makeup slides off your face?? No, that never happens to me.

Target

Promising review: "I grabbed this product on a whim and now it’s a must have in my purse at all times. Not only does it prime and set my makeup, it refreshes it at literally any given moment. I wear my makeup upwards of 12 hours a day and this product never fails me. The only complaint I have is the smell but I honestly wouldn’t want them to risk changing the fomula over it." —Brooke

Price: $9.99

8. A multi-tasking setting spray by Benefit that is said to contain pore-blurring powders for that so-flawless-you-look-airbrushed effect.

Target

Promising review: "A makeup artist recommended it this product and I’m so grateful! It’s lightweight and makes my makeup last all day! I really like that it’s a “mist spray”–it makes application way smoother." —Melissa

Price: $16+ (available in two sizes)

9. A Neutrogena hydro-boost setting spray that's unscented because synthetic scents aren't for everyone, and sometimes you want your mug to be perfectly set without even a hint of smelly stuff in the air. The hyaluronic acid infusion adds plenty of dewy, ultra-hydrated goodness, too.

Target

Promising review: "Absolutely love this hydrating setting spray. After e.l.f. discontinued their aloe mist, I’ve been searching for another hydrating spray that leaves my face dewy, plump and healthy looking. This is it, and I pray they do not discontinue it." —Meech the makeup artist

Price: $18.29

10. Or this dewy formula from Ulta Beauty fans say is just as good as more expensive sprays from brands like Urban Decay. It smooths, plumps, and gives skin a touch of luminosity — without adding a sweaty, too oily look. Plus, how cute is the bottle?!

Target

Price: $12

11. A spray and hydrating face mist which long-term fans swear by. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid, coconut water, and aloe vera will give your skin an extra boost, too, so it's practically a legal skincare requirement that you try it (probs).

Target

Promising review: "I have been a search for a setting spray that I love and I think I've found it! IT Your Skin But Better Setting Spray is so good! It has a light coconut scent that is good and nothing like sunscreen. It's so easy to apply. It has a great mist that feels like it's covering my face without soaking my face like some other setting sprays do. It makes me feel like I have nothing on and it helps give my makeup the staying power I'm looking for!" —lmmshops

Price: $32

12. A vitamin C-infused spray from Urban Decay to help brighten your skin, alongside setting your makeup. Think weddings, parties, and other special occasions when you want your beat to last hours and your skin to look extra energized. Genius!

Target

Price: $18

13. A water-based formula by Anastasia Beverly Hills that promises skin so gorgeously dewy and glowy you'll look like a mermaid who just stepped out of the water. It's free of any glitter, sparkle, or shimmer btw, so don't let the (adorable) sparkly bottle fool you.

Target

Promising review: "I have dry skin and this just melts all my powders together into my skin and takes away that white cast powders leave behind. I have sensitive, eczema prone skin but the fragrance is so minimal it doesn’t irritate me, I can honestly barely smell it." —jazgonzxo

Price: $15

14. A vitamin-infused spray beauty shoppers say leaves the perfect finish for that glass skin look we've all spent way too many hours coveting on TikTok. It can even transform shimmering eyeshadow into a metallic-foil finish. Double the fun!

Target

Promising review: "This is hands down the best setting spray for makeup. A fine continuous mist and it holds all day. This size is great for travel too." —TK

Price: $12+ (available in three sizes)

15. Finally, a Matte Veil setting spray (aka the matte sister to Ulta Beauty's Dewy Glaze) for a freshly applied makeup look that gives excess shine the boot. Once again, fans swear by this brand over pricier options. You might even want to pick up one of each, for a bit of variation to your makeup finishes. Glowy goodness by day, mattified magic by night!

Target

Price: $12
