    What the gurus are saying

    Setting spray can genuinely extend how long your makeup holds, and this one earns praise for its versatility across different skin types. The key thing to know is that it works best when matched to what your under-eyes need: those with dry skin may want a more hydrating formula, while people with oily under-eyes can lean on the mattifying finish it offers.

    "I love the Mac setting sprays they work really nicely but for some reason this packaging was pretty crappy. I don't know if it was just my packaging per se and I locked out with a faulty sprayer, or maybe that happens on all of the 30 mil sizes because this is considered a mini, but it didn't come out very nicely. Especially midway through using this it started to come out in globs which wasn't ideal. But the product in general really does help to keep your makeup in place. But if your sprayer is going to act up and it's not going to spray out really nicely then you're not going to get the same effect because it's not covering your face evenly. But besides the faulty sprayer the product really is nice. I am not going to repurchase at this time because I do have some other makeup setting sprays that I'm trying to use up first."

    "One of my favorite setting sprays is the MAC Fix Plus Stay Over Setting Spray. It's just a really really good setting spray, it really helps lock in the makeup, but it's also alcohol-free so it's not drying or anything like that. It's really beautiful and it smells really good too. I feel like MAC makes some of the best fixing and setting sprays."

    "Let's just use the same one we were using, the MAC Fix Plus Stay Over, lock everything in. I of course always have to press it in with a sponge."

    "I'm going to take my Mac Fix Plus Stay Over Setting Spray which I've been using all over again because this was actually on sale during the Ulta 21 days of beauty. I recommended this in that video and then it's just been on my desk and I've been using it every day. I'm just gonna take that and set all over."

    "This is the MAC Fix Plus Stay Over spray, just going to kind of spritz that all over. Setting spray is going to change the game. Don't skimp out on setting spray. Honestly, if there's anything I could tell you for this year to amp things up, it's going to be brushes and a sponge and setting spray. Honestly, truly, truly, truly, you can use whatever makeup you have, but if you're not using the right brushes and you're not locking it in place, what's the point?"
