Its winter and my makeup just isn't lasting the day at school! I use a good primer that usually helps, a foundation and concealer that usually last but its just isn't now! Any tips?

Sometimes I spray hairspray over my face when I need it to stay on, sounds weird but I read about it somewhere and apparently dancers do it to keep their stage makeup in or something. Well it works anyway :)

Make sure you're setting it. This is probably happening because your skin changes as the seasons change. I have 2 different foundations for the colder months and the hotter months maybe you should do the same.. Idk.

Okay I have oily skin and my makeup used to rub off after a few hours and even with powder it didn't stay. Until I tried urban decays all nighter setting spray. I use primer and powder and then when all my makeup is done I spray
the setting spray on my face and I really helps! You can also spray it before your makeup kinda like a primer :)

But if you can't afford any products the elf setting spray is so much cheaper so maybe try that? Or if you really can't get anything just blot your face with a tissue after your foundation to get rid of oils and set with a powder :)

The elf setting spray actually does wonders for me.

DO NOT SPRAY HAIRSPRAY ON YOUR FACE TO SET IT!, I know it sounds like a miracle worker, but it damages your face. After all it's meant to keep your hair in place not your face. However just make sure that you prop your skin before you put on your make up every way possible. Urban decay has amazing primers and if you're looking for a powder to keep your oily skin tact, I really suggest the next HD studio finishing powder. As far as I know the powder is not costly.
