Why BECCA’s New Mist Is The Multi-Tasker Every Summer Makeup Routine Needs

For all of summer's pros — and there are definitely a lot of them — one serious con is the toll that warmer weather can take on your makeup. When your painstakingly applied foundation, blush, and bronzer start melting down your face, a full-blown freakout is completely warranted. But what if the entire situation could be avoided with the addition of a single product to your summertime beauty routine? This season, you'll want to snag the just-dropped BECCA Skin Love Glow Shield Prime & Set Mist, which not only preps your skin for makeup that lasts all day, but also gives it a dose of dewy hydration for a gorgeous, glowing appearance. Get yourself a bottle, ASAP.

BECCA has already earned cult-fave status with several of its past super-popular launches (like this five-star rated powder highlighter). The ever-growing brand has shown no signs of slowing down, most recently keeping the momentum going with the launch of its Skin Love Collection — a range of skincare-makeup hybrid products that provide your complexion with some extra TLC via carefully selected nature-derived ingredients for a super fresh face. And the latest addition to the skin-loving line happens to be exactly what you'll need to make your makeup last through long summer days.

The brand-new Skin Love Glow Shield Prime & Set Mist, $32 and now available on BECCA's site and at Sephora, delivers silky skin-perfecting goodness via a super-fine mist that locks makeup in its place (and makes you look incredibly glowy). It's formulated with the brand's proprietary Glow Nectar Brightening Hydra Complex — a naturally-derived, hydration-packed brightening solution that's found across its Skin Love product range — plus blueberry extract, vitamin E, and green tea for additional complexion-conditioning benefits.

And this isn't your run-of-the-mill makeup setting spray; in fact, it's so much more than that. Spritz the ultra-fine, alcohol-free mist over your face after the skincare portion of your morning routine, ahead of primer and foundation, to prep your complexion and provide a silky canvas for seamless makeup application. Then, apply another coat of the glow-inducing product after your makeup to seal your look and give your face a dewy finish. And when the hottest summer days have you sweating, take the refreshing mist with you on the go for an instant mid-day touchup.

Below, snag a bottle of BECCA's new multi-purpose mist for yourself and say hello to glow — and goodbye to melting makeup for good.
