Why Makeup Breaks Down — Especially with Alcohol-Based Sprays

Alcohol-heavy setting sprays can feel effective at first, but over time they dry out the skin, exaggerate texture, and cause makeup to crack or separate.

Alcohol-Induced Dryness

High alcohol content evaporates quickly, pulling moisture from the skin and leaving makeup looking powdery.

Friction & Transfer

Rigid, drying formulas crack with movement and rub off on scarves, masks, and phones.

Makeup Melting & Separation

Once skin is dehydrated, foundation and powder break apart within hours.

Why Traditional Setting Sprays Fail…

The Problem with Most Setting Sprays:

  • Alcohol-heavy formulas cause tightness, stinging, and dryness
  • Over-mattifying sprays flatten the skin and emphasise texture
  • Rigid film-formers crack with facial movement
  • Heavy droplets disturb makeup instead of setting it evenly

A Better Approach (What Mist and Melt Spray Does):

Mist & Melt Blurring Spray is a truly alcohol-free setting spray that balances hydration and hold. A micro-fine mist delivers flexible, transfer-resistant polymers that move with your skin — keeping makeup comfortable and intact for up to 16 hours.

The Most Skin-Loving Ingredients for Long-Lasting Wear.

This alcohol-free setting spray is formulated to protect your skin barrier while improving makeup performance — not compromising it.

Avoids dryness, irritation, and tightness while keeping makeup flexible and comfortable.
Helps maintain hydration so makeup stays smooth instead of cracking or clinging.
Sets makeup evenly without disturbing foundation, concealer, or powder.
A considered blend of humectants helps support hydration through the day so your complexion doesn’t drift from dewy to dehydrated. It’s the backbone of a dewy setting spray effect that looks polished rather than greasy.
Overscented mists can easily overwhelm reactive skin. Our setting spray without fragrance prioritises comfort, so you get the finish and longevity you want without layering on another potential irritant in your routine.

Real-Life Scenarios Where MM Spray Earns Its Place.

Flexible film-formers create a breathable veil over your base that helps it resist heat, sweat and long days at the office. You spend less time re-blending your foundation in the loo and more time actually living your day.
A micro-fine mist helps powders and creams meld together, softening harsh edges and powdery build-up. It’s the makeup mist you reach for when things look a bit too flat and you want that soft-focus finish back.
By helping your base grip to the skin, this misting spray reduces how much pigment ends up on fabrics and screens. Ideal if you wear a hijab, use over-ear headphones or spend your day on calls.
Because it’s an alcohol free setting spray without heavy fragrance, MM Spray is a gentle choice for dry or reactive skin types. You still get longevity — just without the stinging eyes, tight cheeks or itchy jawline by midday.

A Science-Backed Formula Designed to Keep Your Makeup Fresh All Day.

Mist and Melt Spray combines humectants, barrier-respecting solvents and flexible film-formers to create a mist that boosts both comfort and longevity. It blurs texture, softens the look of pores and helps your base last without the brittle, overly matte look many sprays create.

Why You’ll Love It

Alcohol-free, non-drying formula

Helps your makeup look freshly applied for up to 16 hours, even through commuting, meetings, school runs and dinner plans.

Blurs texture without flattening the skin

Softens the look of pores and powder so your base looks like skin, not product — ideal for photos, video calls and nights out.

Comfortable all-day wear

A true hydrating setting spray that supports dry or sensitive skin instead of punishing it with high alcohol content.

Works with creams, liquids, and powders

Layer over creams, liquids and powders — use as a makeup fixing spray after application or between layers to melt everything together.

How to Use

  1. Shake well to disperse the blurring and hydrating components evenly.
  2. Hold MM Spray about 20–25cm away from your face.
  3. Close your eyes and mist in an “X” and “T” pattern, making sure to cover the centre of the face where makeup breaks down fastest.
  4. For extra melt and the best way to apply setting spray on dry, powdery areas, lightly mist a sponge and press over the sides of the nose, under-eyes and around the mouth.
  5. Allow to dry naturally — avoid fanning, which can cause uneven drying and texture.

What Makes It Different

Unlike many traditional options, MM Spray is an alcohol free setting spray built around hydration, flexibility and comfort. It behaves like a skin-care step and a face setting spray in one: vegan, cruelty-free, designed for long days and nights, and created for people who demand performance without compromising their skin.

Lock In Your Look

If you want makeup that lasts without dryness, tightness, or irritation, Mist & Melt Blurring Spray is your alcohol-free essential.
