Submitted by Chrissy

I learned this tip from a magazine. It really does work. After you're done applying your makeup, spray your face ligtly with hair spray.

This is a great way to give yourself a skin reaction and make your acne much worse. As a matter of fact you should always try to shield your face when spraying hair products.

hi there Comments By: Zoe on 2006-11-06

I read this tip somewhere.It does work,although I recommend spraying it into the air and walking into it,because it doesn't put to much on your face.

DONT DO IT Comments By: Anon on 2007-08-17

seriously guys. this is probly the worst thing u can so to ur face. u r basicly asking for acne. just reapply ur make-up at lunch or wear stuff that will last longer. do not do thius. the hairspray will help the make-up to stay and also cling to the bacteria not just on ur face but in the air around u too. u r asking for trouble with this one. u could have a sskin reaction to it as well. just do not listen to this idea.

not good for sensitive skin Comments By: Nyla on 2007-12-18

why not just use beauty flash balm by clarins? make up stays fresh and makes you look younger. I have used it for last 5 years... really works

A tip of makeup artists Comments By: Mandy MUA on 2011-01-14

I am a makeup artist, and this is a tip we use all the time. Especially when doing special fx makeup or body paint. Hairspray will help set your makeup.(It is the same as a product you can buy call final seal) As for it making you break out, it doesn't make you break out any more then your makeup itself does. (most makeups) are not really all that great for your skin. It blocks pores etc, so always wash and exfoliate your skin as soon as possible when you are done being out and about.
