URBAN DECAY SETTING SPRAY, £26

Beloved by makeup artists, Urban Decay All Nighter is the gold standard for setting sprays. A mist on top of makeup will lock it in place and prevent any fading or melting, while – here comes the science! – the patented Temperature Control Technology actually lowers the temperature of your makeup to keep everything fixed. We especially like the ‘Ultra Glow’ edition, delivering an additional boost of hydration and dewiness. Pro tip: spritz your beauty blender or brush with setting spray before applying eyeshadow, highlighter, foundation or contour, to create a longer-lasting and more pigmented effect, with less product fallout.

1 This multitasking marvel will lock down both lip products and eyeshadows – making it a hard-working, space-saving addition to any beauty bag. Made by Osmosis, it’s a gentle product that improves your skin’s health and appearance. The primer glides on with a velvety feel, creating a smooth canvas for your products, which then stay in place beautifully, with no bleeding or flaking (even on sticky days). OSMOSIS EYE AND LIP PRIMER, £37.50

The Under Wear primer is vegan beauty brand Delilah’s number-one selling product. A serum-style cream with a gorgeously fresh and silky feel, it’s enriched with skin- plumping peptides and leaves skin impressively smooth, so products glide on effortlessly. DELILAH UNDER WEAR FUTURE RESIST PRIMER, £34 5

YOUR MAKEUP WON’T STRAY THIS SUMMER WITH THE HELP OF THESE PREPPING, PRIMING AND SETTING WONDER PRODUCTS MAYBELLINE SUPERSTAY MATTE INK LIQUID LIPSTICK, £9.99 4 Now we spend a good chunk of our time wearing face coverings, having a lipstick that stays in place has become more pressing than ever. Maybelline’s Superstay is affordable, super-pigmented and seriously does not budge – even when you want it to at the end of the day (we recommend an oil-based cleanser for the job of removal).

An essential bit of kit for beauty buffs, this multi-award winning powder has incredible staying power, but an almost weightless consistency. It blurs, smooths, reduces shine, is breathable and sets makeup for the entire day – there’s a reason one of these is sold every 20 seconds! LAURA MERCIER TRANSLUCENT LOOSE SETTING POWDER, £32 2

VERSO DAILY GLOW, £45 6

A fabulous skin priming product, this vitamin-boosting cream gives skin a youthful bounce and shimmery finish. It’s full of goodies like retinol, vitamins A and B3, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid, which work together to give a smooth base before applying foundation.
