This New Blurring Setting Mist Works Like a Real-Life Instagram Filter

After finishing the masterpiece that is your glam, you’ll want to lock it in place with a setting spray. There are plenty of decent products that can help set your makeup, but we love a multitasker, so we’re always looking for more from our beauty products. ICONIC LONDON’s new Prep-Set-Blur Setting Mist ($32) is so much more than a simple setting spray—it also works for prepping and blurring skin.

The Benefits

If you want to look as smooth and poreless as you do when you put an Instagram filter on your face, look no further. Velvety, matte skin has been trending, but it can be hard to achieve. The Prep-Set-Blur Setting Mist makes getting the look as easy as a few spritzes.

The formula promises to lock in makeup for up to 16 hours, combating shine and promoting an airbrushed look throughout the day. Plus, you can feel good about putting it on your skin since it features antioxidant-rich prebiotics and niacinamide. The weightless texture makes it feel like an invisible layer.

As someone with a host of pesky skin concerns—KP, hormonal acne, rosacea—this blurring mist has been a game changer. It helps blur texture for a smoother-looking finish, which is generally hard to obtain. It even somehow helps reduce the appearance of pores for a more seamless complexion.

How to Use

This do-it-all mist can be used as both your first and final makeup step since it pulls double duty as a priming and setting spray. Make sure to shake up the bottle before misting it all over your skin before applying makeup. Once your look is finished, spritz some more to lock it all in and blur it a bit. You can also spray it throughout the day for a refresh as needed. Pro tip from the brand: spritz it onto your sponge or brush before skin tint and eyeshadow for extra hold.
