One Size On Til Dawn Setting Spray | Does it work for oily skin? | Niara Alexis

[@kimjonguwun]

PLEASEEEE y’all hear me out if u are also EXCESSIVELY oily like me. i’ve been struggling to control my oil for YEARS. these are things i learned from experience, working at makeup stores all my career, & advice from others & also makeup artists: PLEASE GOD USE A TONER. y’all prolly do but i did not listen to people for the longest time until the last like 3 years. 😭 using a toner has made such a HUUUUGE difference oh my god. especially BHA/AHA toners, i cannot use anything hydrating or i get disgustingly oily & break out. please god use a primer, so many customers tell me they don’t & that’s a huge contributor to the problem. THE MATTE MILK PRIMER SAVED MY WHOLE LIFEEEEE. i have tried so many different primers & the MAC one was my fave for awhile bc it kept my oil kinda tolerable, but with the right foundations/skincare, the milk primer will keep u so matte that it’s insane. (everyone’s skin is different tho) using high-end, full coverage foundations, even matte ones, were always the worst for me. using matte drug store ones like l’oréal or maybelline work so much better. i think bc they’re thinner, so they’re not as full coverage but i just mix it with a high-end full coverage matte foundation like fenty for extra coverage & it’s perfect. i also noticed using panoxyl is a lifesaver for me, especially bc i’m lazy & sleep in my makeup. 😭 i still don’t have issues with zits & it significantly helps keep my oil at bay, i think bc of the benzoyl peroxide. but even so, everyone’s skin is different. but i’ve had multiple customers tell me these tips helped them a lot with their oil problem as well so i definitely recommend these tips. also i heard going to a dermatologist to get certain meds, especially tretinoin or something has helped a lot of people out significantly. i will probably do that again bc i had a whole bottle of it but it’s years old bc i never stuck to it LMAO. it’s trial & error but i’m at the best i’ve ever been with controlling my oil !

ALSO, while ur foundation is still wet, try spraying it with setting spray, THEN setting with LOOSE setting powder, & spraying again. that also made a huge difference. compact powders will get cakey, ESPECIALLY POWDER FOUNDATIONS. THEY ARE NOT OUR FRIENDS. THEY MAKE U SO DAMN OILY ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY. i heard it’s like the pigment in the powders, especially compact ones, that attract the oil in ur skin to come out. so yea. :)

Thank youuuuuu i'm a fellow greasy pan too! I have spent so much money on products and still get so digustingly oily after 30mins :( and i use all expensive high end products on my face hardly any drug store ones. Could you please suggest a good toner ? And a good foundation???

[@gigibrown_wright]

Thanks for the recommendation. I have oily skin as well and Charlotte Tillbury has been my go to setting spray. I will give the O/S a try!

[@gennalyzel]

Hey! I’m a super oily girl too like by the end of the day my face is a greaseball and I had the same results with this setting spray no matter what different setting techniques I tried. I then realized these products are not meant to reduce the oils but like it says on the bottle stop sweat and be waterproof which is very different from being oily. I feel like people including me mistake “sweat proof” products as like an against oil products. Hopefully more products will come out that are specifically geared towards us oily girls !

[@Kay2be2mr]

What foundation did you use though? Cause an issue I had with this spray was that I couldn't really touch my face. I couldn't use blotting sheets because my makeup seemed to rub off more easily than if I hadn't sprayed it. So I'm just trying to figure out with what foundations this spray works best. Also I wear sunscreen, so maybe it doesn't mix well with that. Idk.

[@KeyRus-k5u]

Thank you so much

[@Reneshia]

I’m oily too.. like in a major way

[@precioustoya]

I got the same results…. I used Mac setting spray before and then Patrick Star….I used my Laura setting powder and then the charlotte tilbury flawless finish setting powder. I didn’t even use foundation, just concealer under my eyes, the setting powders, the blush, bronzer, and the two setting sprays. I looked soooo oily and had to pat my face down throughout the day at work with tissue. I’m going to try again tomorrow without utilizing the Mac fix-stay over setting spray first.

[@shavawnwilliams9567]

I’m sitting at home wiping and patting oil off my face as I’m reading these comments. I’ve had very oily skin since I can remember. I dislike having to use so much stuff just to try to maintain the oily areas on my face. So I know your struggle.

[@yara-kg6fq]

what shade is your loreal blush? it's stunning!

[@NiaraAlexis]

It’s confident pink

[@yara-kg6fq]

@@NiaraAlexis thank you!

[@naijalovin]

I just bought this, but I’m still waiting on it to be delivered. Hopefully it does the job.

[@miriamheart]

What is ur lip combo?

[@NiaraAlexis]

Chestnut lip liner from Mac, KKW nude 5 lipstick

[@shakirahshareef393]

MAC blot powder would also help throughout the day. I’m noticing some of you said tissue.

[@itssamanthavasquez4]

by what your saying, I think I have the EXACT same problem with oily skin.. like no matter WHAT I have oilyyyynessss after like almost 2 hours (unless it’s humid & i’m outside it’s less lol) I think the products I use are good, & not that it’s badly made, it def works for others but certain things that are supposed to work, really don’t for me:( I really have tried everything, & idk what else to do lol

[@NiaraAlexis]

It’s a struggle 😩 but I worked better for me with least makeup & using the other setting spray paired with it

[@a19enemy]

js keep some pressed powder in ur purse

[@philly-sha1752]

I’m so glad that I saw your review! I brought this setting spray after seeing it in my feed (currently waiting for it to be delivered) I had high hopes now, after watching your video I’m wondering if my oils are going to show up. Maybe we both should’ve brought the setting powder they have also.

[@NiaraAlexis]

Hope you like it!

[@DArkL0rD06]

I don't think I have really oily skin but I used this setting spray and it doesn't hold my makeup at all. I don't know if its the makeup product or the spray

[@sagittarius420cheefie]

I truly believe it depends on the makeup as well. Certain ingredients just don't mesh well with the sprays. I think a water based foundation in normal to dry skin would work great with these products.

[@mayacockerham2556]

Why is never available ?? I want to try it sooo bad

[@valorebeautyy]

its nice but it made my makeup super oily and separate even with setting and powder

[@zakiyahwesley8362]

Babe try washing your face with baking soda and like making it like a paste that really takes the oils out of your skin before you do your make up also cleaning your face with alcohol helps take the extra oils out.

[@0tismadaline]

Gorgeous look sweetheart, great sharing ❤

[@tinagoodwin3571]

Wonderful review, but I feel like you wasted so much product. If you review your video, you will see that you spray your face and all around your "head" which causes a great deal of the product to be wasted.

[@NiaraAlexis]

Thanks!

I'm so scared of these chemical mists affecting my lungs. Hope it doesn't ruin your respiratory system eventually.
