We’re calling it: 2024 is Ayo Edibiri’s year.
The 28-year-old and beloved internet princess of Ireland has asserted her dominance over the award season, securing a flawless victory in 2024’s first four major award ceremonies.
Edibiri has won Best Supporting Actress awards at the 55th NAACP Image Awards, the Golden Globes, the Emmys and the Critics Choice Awards for her performance as Syd in Hulu’s critically acclaimed series The Bear.
But her influence extends far beyond the screen. From the striking strapless black leather gown at the Emmys to the bluntest, cutest and flyest at the Golden Globes, not to mention her effortlessly cool librariancore ensembles, Edibiri is not only making waves in Hollywood but also leaving her mark in the fashion industry.
Yet, amidst all the glitz and glam, there’s one aspect of Ayo Edibiri’s allure that we just can’t get over: her flawless complexion
We needed to find out how her makeup has stayed pristine all night during every award show. After weeks of meticulous stalking, we’re proud to say we got our answer: Benefits Cosmetics The POREfessional: Super Setter Long-Lasting Makeup Setting Spray ($35).
According to Instyle, everything came down to the setting spray. Ayo Edibiri’s MUA, Dana Delaney, started the process with the Porefessional Lite Ultra-Lightweight Face Primer ($35), a featherweight, breathable formula that instantly blurs the appearance of pores while allowing your makeup to apply evenly and stay put all day.
‘To achieve an expensive, transfer-proof makeup look, you need to start with a strong base, and that’s where this primer comes in,’ Delaney expressed.
After the primer is in place, follow up with your foundation, concealer, and bronzers, and then finish with the Porefessional Super-Setting Spray. ‘It’s an indispensable step,’ she added. And after watching the reviews, we second this motion.
A good setting spray helps keep your makeup in place all day and night long and the Benefits Cosmetics does this and then some.
The Super Setter Pore-Minimizing formula blurs pores, locks on makeup for 16+ hours, and, as evidenced by Ayo Edibiri’s interaction with Jeremy Allen White’s all-white ensemble at Emmys, absorbs quickly for a flawless, expensive look that won’t fade, smudge, or transfer.
And if you’re a self-sworn skeptic, wondering if this is just another marketing gimmick, we can assure you it’s not. While Ayo Edibiri’s makeup artist might have the magic touch of the Good Witch, thousands of shoppers and #BeautyTok enthusiasts swear it really is just that good.
@tiera.quarles praised it for being the spray it says it is. An Ulta reviewer dubbed it the best setting spray for oily skin, while another user recommended it for the 90-degree summer weather.
‘You can bake yourself in an oven or under the scorching summer sun, and your makeup won’t budge.’
‘Been crying a lot lately, but my makeup doesn’t budge or fade.’
‘Wait. Did Ayo Edibiri just hug Jeremy Allen White in his all-white ensemble, and her makeup didn’t transfer? What witchery is this? Girl, it’s the Benefits Cosmetics Setting Spray.’
