Backstage Airflash Mist Makeup Setting Spray

DIOR Backstage Airflash Mist is a setting spray you can use at any point in the routine — before makeup to prep and grip, after makeup to lock it, and through the day to bring it back to life. DIOR describes it as forming an invisible shield that holds makeup and hydration for up to 24 hours, with a natural finish that is waterproof and smudgeproof.

What it actually does

• Holds makeup for up to 24 hours. DIOR describes an invisible shield that keeps your look in place that long.
• Hydrates for up to 24 hours too. The same formula is positioned as a hydration step, not only a fixative.
• Prep, set and refresh. One bottle covers all three moments — before makeup, after makeup, and mid-day.
• Waterproof and smudgeproof, with a smoothing effect, per the brand.
• Natural finish on every skin type. DIOR lists normal, dry, combination and oily.

DIOR's instrumental testing: one test ran with 30 women using the mist alongside their usual foundation and recorded 24 hours of makeup wear; a separate test with 30 subjects recorded 24 hours of hydration. Both are brand-conducted tests on small groups.

How to use

1. Hold the bottle roughly 14 to 16 inches away from your face, shut your eyes, and mist all over.
2. Before makeup: use it to hydrate the skin and give your base something to grip onto.
3. After makeup: a pass over the finished face sets everything.
4. During the day: spray to wake the colours up, refresh the look and re-hydrate.

DIOR's pro tips: mist between each makeup step to push wear and natural radiance further. You can also spray it directly onto a brush — helpful when applying foundation, concealer or a complexion stick, or when you want powder highlighter, eyeshadow and blush to read more intensely.

Questions

Do I use it before or after makeup?

Either, or both. Before makeup it hydrates and helps the base grip; after makeup it sets the look; and throughout the day it revives colour and refreshes the skin.

How far should I hold it from my face?

Around 14 to 16 inches, with your eyes closed, misting across the whole face. Any closer and the droplets land unevenly.

Can I spray it on my brushes?

Yes — DIOR recommends it. Misting a brush helps with applying foundation, concealer or a complexion stick, and makes powder products like highlighter, eyeshadow and blush read more intensely.
