Charlotte Tilbury's Airbrush Flawless Matte Setting Spray is the version oily girls clock when the original feels a bit too shiny. Reviewers looking for a flatter finish say it helps keep makeup looking set without adding extra glow on top of an already oily T-zone. It is a splurge, so treat it as a special-day lock-in rather than a daily must. If your face turns into a disco ball by 3pm, this is the CT mist worth a look.
Beauty editors often recommend it when listing setting sprays for oily skin and heatwave makeup.
Oily-skin reviewers often prefer the matte edition when they want less glow, while others stick with the original for a skin-like sheen.

Is it worth the price?
It is a luxury mist. Buy it if long-wear and finish matter more than the high-street price point.
