Nurses who wear makeup to work, how do you get it to last?

Seeking Advice

How do you get your makeup to last all day and not get messed up under the face masks? A setting spray? What are you using?

I want to start wearing makeup to work. Just a simple look like primer, foundation, mascara, blush, & maybe lipstick.

Just want to look more put together and feel better about myself but I often wear a mask on and off while at work and my foundation rubs off my nose or starts to look cakey after a few hours.

Any advice appreciated!
