Hype or Worthy?
Have you ever seen a beauty product all over TikTok and felt the irresistible urge to try it yourself? That was me recently when I spotted the L’Oréal Paris Infallible 3-Second Setting Mist. Promising quick-drying and long-lasting effects, I had to see if it lived up to the hype. Here are my thoughts on the product:
First Impressions
The sleek, red bottle immediately caught my eye. It’s compact and chic, making it a great addition to any vanity or makeup bag. The promise of a 3-second drying time and a 36-hour hold had me excited and skeptical.
Application and Drying Time
Upon my first spritz, I was pleasantly surprised by the ultra-fine mist. It dispersed evenly and gave a smooth, glossy, weightless finish. However, contrary to its claim, the spray did not dry up in 3 seconds. Instead, it gave a wet, glowy, non-sticky finish that set beautifully.
Performance and Longevity
Throughout the day, my makeup stayed in place with minimal touch-ups. It held up well against sweat and humidity, maintaining a fresh look through a long day of meetings and errands. While not flawless, it performed better than most setting sprays I’ve used and had very little transfe
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Instant Drying Time (though not 3 seconds): The spray dries quickly, making it convenient for on-the-go use.
- Long-Lasting Hold: Keeps makeup in place and intact for extended periods.
- Lightweight Formula: Provides a comfortable, breathable finish without feeling heavy.
- Fine Mist: Disperses evenly, but wet, ensuring a smooth application.
Cons
- Price: At $25, it’s too expensive for a drugstore setting spray.
- Scent: Its fragrance is similar to hairspray, which might be for everyone.
- Potential Build-Up: Over-application can lead to a slight build-up, so a light hand is necessary.
Final Thoughts
The L’Oréal Paris Infallible 3 Second Mist Setting Spray is a solid choice for long-lasting makeup hold. Its quick-drying time and lightweight feel make it stand out in the crowded market of setting sprays. Despite a few drawbacks, the pros far outweigh the cons. If you have used Kryolan setting spray it is similar and different to as Onesize On Till Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray setting spray which gives a matte finish.
Whether you’re gearing up for a long day at work, an intense workout, or a night out, this setting spray has you taken care of. It is not a bad buy at all.

It kind of dried out my face after spraying. There was this taut feel to my skin which I didn’t really like. It sure kept the makeup in place though and I don’t know if it’s me but I noticed it had a glow.
Exactly, the effect it left. I didn’t like the glow but it held in place for a while. Thank you for sharing, *Hugs*
