Urban Decay Complexion Rescue! Drop Shot, Velvetizer, & All Nighter Spray


Urban Decay has all your complexion needs covered this Summer! I will say, UD is not one that immediately comes to mind when I think skincare. They are most known for super badass get the job done and look fierce makeup That all changes now! All Nighter Setting Spray has been a mainstay in my makeup routine for years and now they have introduced a slew of other products to keep your skin looking fresh, matte, dewy, basically just fantastic looking all day long!


Drop Shot Mix-In Facial Oil ($34)
Create your own luxurious, skin-softening complexion cocktail with Drop Shot Mix-In Facial Oil. Add a shot of this oil to foundation for conditioned skin and a dewy, radiant glow. Our lightweight, nourishing oil blend helps makeup apply smoothly and blend easily, leaving skin soft, not greasy, and feeling plumped. For perfected skin, mix one drop with All Nighter Liquid Foundation, Naked Skin Liquid Makeup or Naked Skin One & Done, then apply as usual. Once you try Drop Shot as a mix-in, you’ll want to use this multipurpose oil other ways too. Wende loves to apply it under her night cream for added benefits. Drop Shot can also be worn alone for a fresh glow or under makeup as an amazing base.

Ohmygosh I love this! I did not expect to enjoy this facial oil, or have it make as big of difference as I did. One drop applied to my skin before foundation creates the most luxurious soft, luminous skin. As I get older my skin has become more dry and dull and I am always looking for ways to combat that. This made my foundation look so fresh, but did not make me greasy or oily. It feels lightweight on the skin with a fresh, herbal scent that fades quickly. Even after I had removed my makeup my skin still felt hydrated and plumped. I have combination skin and it worked beautifully and I could see it being even more beneficial to dry skin types. I do not know what they put in this stuff, but it is pure magic!

The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium ($34)
Instantly get a velvety foundation texture with The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium by Urban Decay. Just mix a dime-size amount of this product into Naked Skin Liquid Makeup (or Naked Skin One & Done) for an extra velvety feel, a matte finish, and more coverage. The Velvetizer makes it easy to instantly transform your complexion whenever you want—without disturbing the color in your other products. The result: a silky, airbrushed finish.


This powder has an ultra-fine, addictively radiant feel. Urban Decay’s high-tech formula provides a smooth, soft-focus effect for your most perfected complexion. It even doubles as a finishing powder when used alone, setting your makeup for a flawless finish. Free of oil, alcohol, and fragrances, this velvety powder comes in a gorgeous, double-walled jar with a velvet label and a highly metallized gunmetal lid debossed with the Urban Decay icon. Inside, a custom gunmetal sifter (shaped like the Urban Decay design) dispenses just the right amount of powder.


When I first saw Velvetizer I thought, oh cool a setting powder. As if UD would give us just another setting powder. No, it's a powder to mix in to your foundations to create a matte, velvet look. It can also be used as a setting powder though too. Now, I'm not one for a matte finish, but it does do what it says. Transforming any foundation in to one that is matte and velvety. I used this powder as a finishing powder and it mattified my skin well. Velvetizer is a pass for me, I found it dulled and looked chalky on my pale complexion. That could just be because I prefer a more natural, luminous look to my skin though.


All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray ($32)
 Is makeup meltdown ruining your midnight mojo? Mist on this weightless spray to give your makeup serious staying power. Developed in an exclusive partnership with SKINDINÄVIA, this groundbreaking, clinically tested formula is suitable for all skin types and features patented Temperature Control Technology. It actually lowers the temperature of your makeup to keep foundation, eyeshadow, blush, and concealer in place—even in hot and humid or cold and windy conditions. The result? Smoother-looking skin and vibrant makeup that lasts all day (or night) without melting, cracking, fading, or settling into fine lines.


It's no wonder All Nighter is the #1 Setting Spray. I haven't been without it in my makeup kit since it was released. A misting over my face has been how I set my makeup every time I put it on. The difference is makeup that lasts, doesn't fade, crease, or wear off as easily. It will take your makeup through the day and beyond. I passed this on to my Mom as I have multiple bottles. She always has a problem with her eye makeup running. Now, it stays put. So, this isn't just for making your foundation stay put, it will also help your eye makeup stay in place as well. How cute is the personalization? I think UD knows all of its bloggers are FAITHFUL to the Setting Spray.


All Nighter Pollution Protection Environmental Defense Setting Spray ($34)
Make your makeup last up to 16 hours AND help protect against oxidation due to pollution. All Nighter Pollution Protection mists on weightlessly to keep makeup looking just-applied, without melting, fading or settling into fine lines. Our light-as-air formula acts like a protective barrier throughout the day—to guard skin against whatever the day throws at it.

This amped up version of All Nighter gives you the same results of long-lasting fresh makeup with added pollution protection. What does that mean? It means it protects against oxidation that pollutants can cause. We all know what oxidation looks like, especially on pale skin. ORANGE. I feel like this spray works pretty identical to the original All Nighter. I will opt for this when I know I will be spending more time outdoors in the polluted high-density city areas. Setting with this spray feels great. There is no sticky feeling and it cuts down on the powdery look.


Quick Fix HydraCharged Complexion Prep Priming Spray ($32)
 Reduce the look of a late night out with this priming spray. Once you cleanse your post-party complexion, balance and reinvigorate your skin with Urban Decay’s Quick Fix Hydra-Charged Complexion Prep Priming Spray. The soothing, prep-priming spray is light enough to use throughout the day—without messing up your makeup, and it also hydrates and softens skin. Use it in the morning to prep and reawaken your skin before applying makeup. Use it at night before your treatment, or anytime you need a quick boost.

Created in an exclusive partnership with Skindinavia and inspired by the Korean water trend, this spray is even more hydrating than B6 Prep Spray. This energizing formula is versatile enough for every skin type, and it’s loaded with skin-nourishing ingredients like vitamin B3, Sepitonic™ M3, and coconut water. Treat your skin to intense moisture as you prep, prime, and balance your complexion

Quick Fix is like a cool, drink of water for the skin! I have always been a fan of Skindinavia Setting Sprays so I knew this would be another winner. Rebound refreshes your skin and adds hydration with out having to put on heavy lotions or creams. I like using this before my makeup for hydration and set with All Nighter after I'm finished. It's also a wonderful mid-day pick up for stressed, or dehydrated skin.
