Make-up Setting Spray

Have you ever heard of a product that sets your eye color and foundation/powder for hours? Well,  if you are not familiar what this product is, I am sure you will find this post helpful.

A make-up setting spray is something ct that seals your make-up for hours.  Thus, giving your face a healthy glow and a matte finish. Perfect isn't it?!  The kikay mom never uses this until she discovered Model in a Bottle Make-up Setting Spray from Marlena, CEO and writer for Makeupgeek.com. 


Several brands produce the same type of products, such as Mac, Urban Decay, Motives, and Graftobian.  These brands are locally available which you can purchase from bazaaristas and multiply sellers (except for Mac).  Although I can purchase a finishing spray from multiply, I opted to choose a brand that is not available within our shores, that is,  Model in a Bottle Make-up Setting Spray.  This brand stood out among my choices because it already had 2 TV appearances (Tyra Banks Show and Oprah Winfrey show). Plus, there's a video on the site that shows how effective the product is.
Despite the fact that it's not available in the Philippines, I was still able to get one for myself.  How?  Well, thanks to my friend whose relatives live in US hehe!

  • Works with any type of eyeshadow (cream, mineral, powder, gel, liquid)
