Makeup fixer should be applied after you have completed your entire makeup application.
Applying makeup fixer, or setting spray, at the end of your routine helps to meld all the layers of makeup together, prolong its wear, and prevent it from creasing, smudging, or fading.
Here's a more detailed look:
- Timing is Key: The point of makeup fixer is to set everything in place. Therefore, it is the very last step.
- Application Method: Hold the bottle about 6-8 inches away from your face, close your eyes, and spray in an "X" and "T" motion to ensure even coverage. Avoid spraying too closely, as this can cause droplets and streaks.
- Drying Time: Allow the fixer to dry completely. This usually takes about 15 minutes. Avoid touching your face during this time.
In summary, apply makeup fixer after all other makeup products have been applied, just before you head out. This will lock everything in place and help your makeup last longer.
