Beauty Product Review: Decay De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray

If you're like me, then you have a problem with having too much of an oil production on your face. I absolutely love makeup, but I have a lot of problems with my makeup wearing off within a few hours because of my oily skin. Last weekend I went to a party I had been looking for to for weeks. I applied my makeup as usual, and within a few hours of arriving to the party, I stepped away to use the washroom and noticed my makeup looked horrible. My foundation and blush was smeared and my eyeshadow and eyeliner was smudged across my eyes. Needless to say, I had to remove my makeup immediately and go on with the party. This has happened before, but after the party last weekend I'd had enough. I needed to find something that would keep my makeup from smudging, smearing, and running from my oily skin.

I immediately went to Urban Decay's website. I love Urban Decay for a variety of different reasons, but mainly because they have high-quality products and are vegan. I own a lot of Urban Decay products and can proudly say I would recommend any of them. So when I needed a product that would hold my makeup, I immediately turned to Urban Decay. On their website I went to the "Face" section. The first product that caught my eye was the Urban Decay De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray.

According to Urban Decay's product description, the Urban Decay De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray uses "innovative oil control that both absorbs excess sebum and controls surface shine." It seemed like the exact product I was looking for. I decided to invest $29 in the product so that I could try it out. I ordered it directly from the Urban Decay website.

Upon receiving the Urban Decay De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray, I wanted to try it out as soon as possible. I decided to try it out in the morning after I apply my makeup for the day. In order to use the Urban Decay De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray you simply spray it over your makeup to set it. So I went ahead and applied my foundation, blush, eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, and lipgloss. I then generously sprayed the product over my face and dried it in front of a fan for about a minute. Now came the real test...would it last all day?

I went through about half the day before I checked my makeup in the mirror. Surprisingly when I looked at my reflection, my makeup was still there intact. Nothing had smudged or budged. I was really shocked, usually my makeup is almost gone by noon. I then checked my makeup again at 4PM (the end of my school day) and noticed, once again, that my makeup was still there!

Over all, I would easily rate the Urban Decay De-Slick Oil Control Makeup Setting Spray a 5/5. If you have oily skin, this product is the perfect solution. It keeps oil from building up on your face and it helps keep your makeup from smearing. I would easily recommend this product to anyone who has problems with oily skin and wearing makeup.
