VEIL™ SOFT FOCUS SETTING SPRAY

Hourglass Veil™ Soft Focus Setting Spray is a very fine, water-resistant mist that locks makeup down and hydrates at the same time. Hourglass says it holds a look put for as long as 24 hours while leaving skin looking blurred and naturally radiant rather than flat.

What it actually does

• Keeps makeup set for as long as 24 hours. That is the brand's stated wear claim, helped by the spray's water-resistant properties.
• Blurs as it sets. According to Hourglass the mist softens how imperfections appear, for a smoother, more even look.
• Hydrates rather than dries down. The mist is hydrating, which is why the brand also suggests using it mid-day to refresh skin.
• Undetectable on the skin. Ultra-fine droplets, weightless finish — no sticky film.
• Strengthens the base underneath. Hourglass says it enhances foundation and helps it stay put for maximum wear.
• Clean-formula checklist. Made without mineral oil, phthalates, parabens, or SLS and SLES sulfates, with under one percent synthetic fragrance. Vegan, gluten-free and cruelty-free. Hourglass lists it as a winner of Allure's Best of Beauty.

How to use

1. Shake well and hold the bottle about 10 inches from your face.
2. Close your eyes, press the pump firmly and lay a generous mist over finished makeup.
3. Let it dry before opening your eyes.
4. Mid-day refresh: mist again to rehydrate, then touch up with Veil Retouching Fluid (sold separately).
5. Brand trick for highlighter: spritz your Ambient Lighting Edit Brush before sweeping it through Ambient Lighting Strobe Powder (both sold separately) for a more intense result.

Precautions from the brand: it causes eye irritation, so keep it out of the eyes, and avoid inhaling the product while spraying.

Questions

Will it make my makeup look matte?

No — the finish Hourglass describes is blurred and naturally radiant, not matte. It is a soft-focus spray rather than a shine-killer.

Can I use it without makeup?

Yes. The brand's own tip is to mist through the day to rehydrate skin, which works with or without a full face on.

How far away should I hold it?

Around 10 inches. Closer than that and you get droplets instead of a fine veil, which can disturb the makeup underneath.

Is it safe around the eyes?

Keep it out of your eyes — Hourglass flags that it causes eye irritation. Close your eyes before spraying and wait until it has dried.

How long does delivery take?

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. In-stock bottles arrive at the shorter end; anything sourced for you takes longer. Working days exclude weekends and official holidays.

How can I pay, and what if it leaks?

Payment is by credit card, debit card, Instapay or mobile wallets — no cash on delivery. If the bottle arrives damaged, defective or expired, report it within 1 day of delivery; once verified, we refund the original payment method within 15–30 days.
