Every beauty product you use plays an important role in making your face look #flawless. Foundation gives you a solid base, concealer gives you an even skin tone, bronzer makes you look sculpted, mascara brightens your eyes, and setting spray tops it all off.

A good setting spray is the finishing touch on a full face of makeup. Afterall, you don’t want your foundation to slide off or your eyeliner to run. That would be a major waste of time. Spritzing a bit of setting spray ensures that your glam will last throughout the entire day, rain or shine.

MAC’s Prep + Prime Setting Spray is a bestselling cult-favorite product in the makeup world. Beauty gurus and makeup artists alike swear by it. But at $26, it’s not exactly the cheapest setting spray out there. While it is totally worth every penny that it costs, sometimes it’s just not realistic to be able to spend that much cash on just one single beauty product. We totally get it.

If you’re a bargain beauty shopper, you don’t what to sacrifice quality for the price–and you don’t have to. While MAC still comes out on top for its amazing setting spray, plenty of other cheap beauty brands make makeup sprays that are just as good. We found four setting sprays that are perfect MAC Fix Plus dupes.
