When used with foundation from Mac, the adhesion power increases.

The fact that the spray power was not great is a bit disappointing. It did not spray evenly, so it seems like it needs to be used carefully...!

I purchased this product based on the recommendation of a store employee, and I'm pleased that it can be used as both a mist and a primer in one step. Its performance in terms of makeup longevity and hydration is excellent, making it a reliable option. These days, department store mists tend to be quite expensive, so I'm happy that I was able to acquire this at a relatively reasonable price. I've continued using it without experiencing any breakouts, and the locking function is convenient for preventing leakage when carrying it around.

프렙+프라임 픽스 플러스 [매티파잉미스트]

It's supposed to be a fixing product, but I didn't really feel like it was fixing anything.. Other than that, I liked everything else.

I'm so happy to be able to play the role of a mist! It's nicely moisturizing and has just the right amount of cooling sensation.

If you spray it after completing your skincare routine and before starting your makeup, it helps the makeup apply beautifully

The spraying is a bit disappointing - it feels like droplets are flying around rather than an even mist
You need to work quickly when spraying and then applying foundation, or else it will set in place

I've been using this product for 6 years
At first, I used to spray it as a finishing touch, but spraying it after completing my base makeup, before applying foundation, results in a perfect fixation and higher longevity

The spray distribution is uneven and it feels like it clumps up a bit.

The difference in staying power is clear whether you spray it or not.
It's especially noticeable in the summer.

It's coming out like it's spitting water! There's a clumping feeling in the middle

It's great, so moist and soft! It seems gentle!! The best

 -You can also pat it in with your hands before makeup, but personally I found it more convenient to just lightly dab it on with an air puff :)

-When traveling to really hot places, I can't do touch-ups all day, and have to wear a mask, etc., that's when using a long-wear foundation along with a matte fixer and powder is a game-changer :)

 As everyone has mentioned, the spray power is crucial!
I'm not sure if it's okay to transfer it to another container, so I just use it as is.
Sometimes it works well, but other times it just sprays out like spit, so I just spray it from a distance and then pat it down with an air puff!

Even with these downsides, it's still an item I would repurchase ㅠㅠ

 Before makeup, spraying and lightly patting with hands or a puff can really help set the makeup...!
Personally, I prefer a matte makeup look, and even in the summer, spraying a fixer before and after, and applying foundation + powder, makes the makeup last all day!
It may vary depending on individual skin condition, but on a quite hot day when I was out all day wearing a mask, after doing a thorough skincare routine and using oil-free sunscreen, fixer, foundation, fixer, and powder, the makeup on the masked area stayed clean and intact without any need for touch-ups from morning till night:) Even when a bit of oil came through, it still looked smooth and clean, so I was able to get by without any retouching!

The ingredients are not great, and the price is a bit high, so other affordable or better-ingredient fixatives would be preferable.

The fragrance is pleasant, and the packaging is unique, which I like.
It sprays very evenly.

The downside is that the spray range is narrow and it tends to come out in clumps.

It helps to keep the skin well-fixed, moisturized, and fluffy by absorbing excess oil.
It's a good alternative to powder when the skin feels dry.

At first, it didn't seem to have any smell, but lately, there is a slightly sour? strange odor when spraying it.... It didn't exist in the original, but I'll go back to the original once I've used it up.

Since it is for a mat, it contains powder, so when applied, it is fixed softly and smoothly.

The spray feels like someone is spitting on your face...
Someone said it's like a camel spitting, and I have to agree - it's not an exaggeration, it really is like that.
I really wish I could spray the person who made this directly in the face with a full bottle, the spray is just that bad.
I could have spent that money on an Urban Decay or a domestic Korean brand that has much better spray power and hold.

I tend to do a dewy finish on my makeup. I also barely use powder.
This type of makeup tends to wear off easily in the summer, so I started using this to minimize the breakdown.
The setting spray function is just so-so.
I used it without any major issues, but I wouldn't expect it to be a dramatic game-changer or make your makeup completely budge-proof.
It's better than not using anything, so I'd say it's worth using.
I probably won't repurchase it though. Honestly, there are so many better setting sprays out there...

This mist is dual-purpose, and
I find it works well for me when using it before makeup.
It helps cool down my skin,
and my makeup applies nicely too!

Even though I'm on my third bottle,
the spray force never seems to change...
It has a very poor, sputtering spray force...
If a consistent, fine mist is important to you,
try a different one when the packaging changes...
I've tried a lot of mists, but this one is really the worst...haha

It's refreshing and convenient.
It's moderately moisturizing, and I use it as a setting spray after makeup.
I also use it to cool down my skin before makeup or before bed.
The ingredients are not bad, and I sometimes spritz it at the office to refresh myself.
It suits me well, so I'm on my third bottle!
