Whether you have oily, dry, combination, or normal skin, no skin type is safe from getting hulas in the Philippines’ hot and humid climate. Aside from good skin prep such as moisturizer, sunscreen, and primer, adding a good setting spray to your routine can secure your makeup from getting messy and greasy throughout the day. While most setting sprays are quite expensive, there are still great options for those who are on a budget.Â
If you’re looking for setting sprays under P500, here are some recommendations that will keep your makeup long-lasting.
Shawill Makeup Mist & Set
This is probably the most affordable setting spray in the local market. But there’s no need to lower your expectations because Shawill’s setting spray locks in your makeup for a long time. Aside from being long-wearing, it also hydrates your skin for a smooth and fresh look without fading your makeup or settling into fine lines. It’s travel-friendly as well with its lightweight packaging with 60ml of product. This makes it a great product to put into your kikay kit for emergency retouches after a long day of classes and commuting.Â

If you have oily skin, this might probably be your next holy grail setting spray. Nichido’s Matte Finish Setting Spray guarantees great oil control as it sets your makeup into a matte finish. This long-wearing makeup spray feels weightless on the skin and claims to be Paraben-free.
To give you an idea, parabens are man-made chemicals used as preservatives in food or cosmetics. Some studies have found that parabens act like estrogen in our body and can add to the risk of getting breast cancer and other hormonal issues.Â
