    If your make-up has a habit of slipping south by midday then you need a setting spray in your life.

    1. Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray, £21 This is a cult product for a very good reason. It feels super-light on the skin, doesn’t clog pores and it makes your foundation last.

    2. MAC Prep + Prime Fix +, £15.50 If you like a perfected, dewy finish, this is the guy for you. It won’t keep everything in place indefinitely, but it will make your foundation stay on your skin for a hell of a lot longer and it will look pretty damn good while it’s on there.

    3. Clarins Fix’ Make-Up, £23 This does exactly what it says it does; it fixes your make-up in place but it also delivers a pretty healthy burst of hydration while it’s doing so.

    4.  Kiko Make Up Fixer, £7.90 

    This setting spray stands out from the crowd because it’s an aerosol, which means it feels light as air on your skin. It applies evenly and it contains a camomile extract so it’s gentle on sensitive skin.

    5. Diego Dalla Palma Make Up Fixer, £19  Another nifty aerosol that somehow manages to help foundation defy even the warmest and most humid conditions.
