Winner: The MAC Prep and Prime Fix+ original smells slightly better and it also has more scent options. To keep the comparison direct, I’m using the original (not specially scented) one here. The MAC spray also comes in 3 scents: coconut, lavender and rose (plus the original). The MAC Prep and Prime Fix+ on the other hand has a stronger (but still not too strong) scent which is a combination of a spray scent with a floral and lemon-like hint. The Urban Decay All Nighter has a very subtle spray-like scent which is neither specifically pleasant or unpleasant. Winner: The Urban Decay mist is more evenly distributed. This is visually obvious by even spraying them both in the air. The Urban Decay spray is more even and the mist feels like it has smaller droplets than the MAC one, which often feels uneven giving you the feeling that there’s more spray in certain parts of the face than others. However, the size of the droplets of the sprays is not the same. Neither of the two products has a colour and they are both sprays.
For all the details keep reading or jump to the category you are interested in. Here’s a summary, green background = positive, red = negative, grey = equal/neutral. These products are not new and this showdown has been long in the making so let’s get to it! So from that information alone, a few questions arise.Ĭan you use both as setting sprays or are they different? Is the Fix+ a good primer or a good setting spray? Which setting spray is best? Are they just the same thing? Are they both worth the hype and which one is actually worth your time and money? Interestingly, the Urban Decay All Nighter is ranked as the #1 setting spray on Influenster whereas the MAC Prep and Prime Fix+ is ranked as the #1 face primer. When beauty gurus talk about setting sprays they are most often referring to either the Urban Decay All Nighter or the MAC Prep and Prime Fix+. Setting sprays can truly elevate your makeup and even wake you up in the morning (is it just me?)! However, even though there are many options out there, in practise there are mainly two.

Some setting sprays can even help control oil production if you are oily, or alternatively for the dry skin types out there, some setting sprays can give you a more dewy look. A setting spray can prolong the longevity of your makeup as well as increase the intensity of eye shadows. Not everyone uses setting sprays but the ones that do often have very strong feelings about them.
