These days, any beauty solve is a merely aerosol spray away. Dry skin? There’s a very handy spray for that. Need an instant tan? Dear reader, there is a (really, really incredible and spotless) bronzer spray for that. Deodorant troubles bringing you down? Well, hey, worry not because there is a spray to keep you fresh-scented and dry.

But spray technology goes well beyond the basics in 2017. A spray hair mask? A spray foundation? Tell me more…

 

Just months after its launch, IGK’s Prenup Instant Spray Mask ($32) is a runaway success. And it’s the opposite of everything you considered to be standard in a hair mask.

That jar you have to clumsily open with wet hands and scoop out (am I the only one that gets a cup of water in there while scooping it out?) has been replaced with an aerosol spray so you can ditch that thick, heavy mask for a lightweight, micro-emulsion option. Oh, and “leave on for 10-20 minutes” has been updated with a mere 60 seconds.

The just launched Spray-To Mask ($46) by K Beauty brand Erborian is really exciting. A mask that exist in an spray format has never really hit the market with a lot of success. (Please comment though if I’m forgetting about one!) But this one is already a hit because it spritzes on in a gel-like mask for ultra moisturizing and calming benefits, with the simple ease of a few sprays. 

 

Temporary colorful hair is all but a few sprays away as well. Looking almost identical to a spray paint can, the IGK Girls Club Color Spray ($29) gives you instant, bold color in seconds, and washes out in the shower as quickly as it took to spray in. 

 

And your perfect skin is practically a few sprays away with Diorskin Airflash Spray Foundation ($62). Airbrushed foundation has been a go-to for runways and celebrities for years, but the DIY aspect of it has usually involved clunky, expensive equipment. Well, no longer, my friend. Get the airbrushed look with a mist of velvety foundation, which sounds ambiguous, but trust us, you’ll glow.

Got minutes and hate painting on nail polish? You’re in luck, Nails Inc Spray Can Nail Polish ($12) no longer requires precision and an hour of drying. Simply spritz over a base coat and allow to dry before washing your hands to remove any excess color from the skin.

 

Need to fake a tan stat and on-the-go? Good news, Guerlain Terracotta Bronzing Mist ($64) goes on in an ultra-light mist, mimicking airbrush makeup technology. The result is evenly bronzed skin that fakes a Hawaiian vacation in an instant.

 

Don’t let your spritzing end when highlighting comes along, Sephora Perfection Mist Nude Glow ($20) is infused with something they call “instablend pigment technology”, which basically delivers an even layer of subtle rose gold-colored on the cheekbones that doesn’t even need to be blended in. Win and (rose gold) win.
