CarpeMatte Setting Spray Mist ~ NEW~ Instant Matte Setting Spray for Sweat & Oil Control - Ideal Setting Spray for Oily Skin - Lightweight Matte Finishing Spray For Makeup w/o Compromising Comfort

My make up stays in place for hrs no matter the weather. Dries very quickly.

I kept seeing ads for Carpe products and decided to give in and take a look. The reviews were promising. I've been an Urban Decay girl for years but it was no match for these triple digits days, my makeup sweated off and got patchy by 9am. This spray is INCREDIBLE!!! I thought I was just impressing myself, haha, but then around 9pm my fiance asked if I put on makeup. This will not be my last bottle.It has a light scent which I don't mind, and the mist feels so refreshing. It definitely gives you a thorough and even coverage. It's sticky at first but that goes away quickly. 10/10

I ordered this after researching and reading reviews. I apply a setting spray to help keep my makeup from budging throughout the day. I read countless reviews on how this spray mattifies and helps keep makeup on all day long. The brand claims to lock in makeup and control sweat & oil. Not at all true. I am an oil slick after application and it does not keep sweat and oil under control at all. I even attempted to apply and set with powder afterwards as it makes you look shinier after it dries than before. It does NOT work as it claims to or as the reviews claim it does at all.

I was unfortunately cursed with always being very hot and getting hot easily, which turns me into a sweaty girl pretty quickly. I know sweating is a normal bodily function, but it’s still pretty embarrassing and just not very flattering to be the only one sweating in a room when other people are comfortable or even chilly.I pair this setting spray with the carpe face lotion and I’ve noticed a significant difference in how quickly I start to sweat and the amount of sweat I have to deal with. I put it on everyday, whether I’m wearing make up or not!It doesn’t completely stop me from sweating (but tbh that just might be a me & my body temperature issues problem) but the fact that I even notice a difference in how much I’m sweating and how quickly I begin sweating is a huge win for me!!!I spray my whole face but I also make sure I spray this right on my hair line around my head even on the back of my neck, and that’s really where I’ve seen the biggest impact in my sweating struggles. It doesn’t do anything to my hair like make it feel sticky or look weird, and it helps control the sweat around it!I haven’t noticed any stickiness. I will say, I don’t love the smell, it doesn’t smell horrible, but it’s just not the greatest smell.I think my biggest complaint is I haven’t been able to actually find it in stores anywhere yet, so I can only get it online, which I find a bit annoying.

I’ve tried a lot of products to combat my oily skin and this brand works for me so far. I don’t feel like my makeup separates and living in the south, heat is one thing that is very hard to combat. I highly recommend trying

Not impressed. It makes my face look more sticky after I mist it on then before. My make up stays on ok but it's definitely not mattifying.

*Update* The company reached out and offered me a refund. I added 2 stars for their great customer service*I have hyperhydrosis and have used other Carpe products for years. Although I use another setting spray, I was excited when this spray came on the market. I’ve used it on numerous occasions…at different temperatures and it didn’t work once. It was a waste of money.

I am updating my review because customer service contacted me and addressed my concerns.I'm blown away with customer service! WOW!!! I love Carpe products but this one is a disappointment. It is not mattifying. I have tried spraying close to the skin, further away, and shaking the bottle. Same results.
