It works even better when used with MAC foundation, improving the overall adherence.

The spray distribution isn't the best, which is a bit disappointing. You need to be careful when applying it as it doesn't dispense evenly...!

I bought this based on a department store employee's recommendation, and I love that it can be used as both a mist and primer in one. It's great for maintaining makeup and providing hydration, making it versatile and easy to use! Considering how expensive department store mists can be these days, I think it's a good value for the price. I've been using it consistently without any blemishes. It also has a locking feature, so there's no risk of leakage when carrying it around!

프렙+프라임 픽스 플러스 [매티파잉미스트]

Even though it's supposed to be a fixing spray, I didn't really feel like it set my makeup. Other than that, everything else about it is great!

I love that it doubles as a mist! It's wonderfully hydrating and has just the right amount of cooling effect.

For best results, apply after completing your skincare routine and before starting your makeup. This helps your makeup absorb better.

The spray distribution is a bit disappointing. While it seems to cover evenly, it feels like droplets are hitting your face. You need to be quick when applying foundation after spraying, otherwise it sets too quickly.

I've been using this product for 6 years now. Initially, I used it as a finishing spray, but I've found it works better as a primer. Applying it after skincare and before foundation creates a perfect fixative, significantly improving makeup longevity.

The spray distribution isn't even, and it feels like it clumps together somehow.

There's a noticeable difference in longevity between when you apply it and when you don't. It's especially effective in summer.

The product comes out like spitting water! It feels like it's clumping in the middle.

It's wonderfully moisturizing and gentle on the skin! Seems to be really mild. Absolutely love it!

- You can pat it in with your hands after applying, but I personally find it easier to use an air puff to gently bounce it into the skin.

- If you're heading somewhere really hot, can't touch up your makeup all day, or need to wear a mask, pair this with a long-wearing foundation like Double Wear, along with a matte fixer and powder. It's an unbeatable combination for lasting power!

모두가 말씀하시는 것처럼 분사력..!
저거 다른데 담아서 써도 되는지 모르겠어서 그냥 저는 씁니다.
어떨 땐 또 괜찮고 어떨땐 침뱉듯 나와서 그냥 멀리서 막 대충 뿌리고 에어퍼프로 찹찹 정돈해줍니다!

그래도 단점 감수하고도 재구매할 아이템입니다ㅠㅠ

As everyone mentions, the spray nozzle is a bit... challenging! 

I'm not sure if it's okay to decant it, so I just use it as is. Sometimes it sprays fine, other times it comes out like a sneeze. I end up spritzing it from a distance and then smoothing it out with an air puff.

Despite this flaw, it's still a repurchase for me. The benefits outweigh this minor inconvenience!

The ingredients aren't great, and it's on the pricey side. You'd be better off with a more affordable setting spray or one with better ingredients.

I love the pleasant scent and the unique packaging design. The spray dispenses the product very evenly.

The downside is that the spray nozzle has a narrow coverage and tends to dispense the product in clumps.

It sets well, keeps skin moisturized, and effectively controls oil for a soft, matte finish. It's a great alternative to powder when your skin feels dry.

At first, I didn't notice it, but lately there's a slightly sour or strange smell when I spray it... This didn't happen with the original version. Once I finish this, I plan to go back to the original

As it's designed for a matte finish, it contains powder that sets softly after application

The spray is like someone spitting on your face... Someone said it's like a camel spitting, and I couldn't agree more. It's so bad that I want to empty a whole bottle on the face of whoever made this. The spray distribution is terrible. You'd be better off spending your money on Urban Decay or even domestic brands that have much better spray and fixing power. That's why I knocked off two stars.

I tend to go for a dewy makeup look and rarely use powder. This type of makeup can easily melt off in summer, so I started using this to minimize that. The fixing ability is just okay. I used it without any major issues, but don't expect it to dramatically prevent your makeup from fading. It's slightly better than not using anything at all. I probably won't repurchase it though. To be honest, there are so many better fixers out there in the world.

It's a dual-purpose mist and setting spray. I find it particularly effective when used before makeup. It seems to help cool down the skin and creates a nice base for makeup application.

I'm on my third bottle, but the spray mechanism remains stubbornly unchanged... It has a terribly poor spray distribution. If you value a fine mist spray, wait until they change the packaging before trying it. I've used many mists, but this one is truly the worst when it comes to spray quality... haha!

It's refreshing and convenient. It's moderately hydrating, and I use it as a setting spray after makeup. I also use it to cool down my skin before makeup or before bed after cleansing. The ingredients are decent, and I often spritz it at the office for a quick refresh. It works well for me, so I'm consistently using it - I'm on my third bottle!
