One/Size's Mattifying Setting Spray VS. Glass Skin Setting Spray
What if I told you the number one selling product at Sephora isn't a trendy Summer Fridays Lip Balm or viral Sol de Janeiro body mist? That's right—the top-selling beauty product at Sephora is actually a setting spray. Specifically, the One/Size On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray. The beloved formula locks makeup in place (no transferring or smudging) for up to 16 hours, all while absorbing excess oil so your skin looks nice and matte. Even Beyoncé is a fan; she used the spray to keep her glam in tact during a three-hour rain-soaked performance. Oh, and Cosmo readers love On Til' Dawn too—it won a 2024 Readers' Choice Beauty Award for best setting spray.
Today, the iconic formula got an upgraded counterpart: the Powder Melt Glass Setting Spray. Think of it as the glowy, skincare-infused sister to the original formula. Inspired by the rise of glass skin, this new version is designed to hydrate while delivering a radiant, dewy finish that lasts all day. I got an early preview of the new Powder Melt Glass Setting Spray and have been testing it against the original to see how they compare. Keep reading for the full rundown—and whether or not the new launch is worth the same level of hype as the OG.
I first started using this setting spray when it launched a few years ago. I was commuting to grad school (via a 20-minute walk and a 30-minute subway ride) in the thick of NYC's September humidity, and needed something to help keep my makeup in place during the day. So I gave the formula a try after seeing so much hype on TikTok. It has a hairspray-like finish that feels more heavy-duty than any setting mist I'd used before. I will say that it wasn't exactly hydrating on my dry skin, but once it set, my concealer, blush, and even mascara stayed put for the entire day until I swiped it off with a micellar water-soaked pad at night.
Beauty editor Beth Gillette calls it her "going-out secret weapon" for her long and sweaty nights bar hopping around Brooklyn. "I come from the days of spritzing my face with legit hairspray to make my makeup last longer (2014 Pinterest was a scary time in beauty). But the One/Size Setting Spray is basically that, reimagined. It doesn't feel like I'm putting anything on my face, nor does it make my skin feel sticky or tacky. But it seriously locks down my makeup and leaves my skin looking matte and smooth. I have a mini that I take on every hot-weather vacation. I doused myself in it every day of Coachella—I truly cannot be without it in my makeup routine, ever."
As someone with dry skin who lives for a dewy finish, I was ecstatic when I heard about this launch. The original mattifying formula was never quite right for me—my skin is so dry that if I skip moisturizer, it starts to feel tight and borderline itchy. So anything even slightly matte is too much for my face. To be fair, I totally understand the hype around the OG. If you want makeup to last through sweat, heat, and humidity—and dryness isn't an issue—it absolutely holds up. But the glass formula? It's a game-changer for a glowy finish and/or anyone with dry skin.
Patrick Starrr (the founder of One/Size) described the new version as a formula that 'melts your powder into place,' and after testing it over a full face of makeup, I totally get it. It leaves this seamless, glassy finish—like you can't tell where my blush starts or my concealer ends. Everything just blends into one glowy, skin-like layer. It also makes my face feel refreshed and hydrated when I spritz it—the formula is packed with ceramides and ginger flower extract to help nourish the skin while keeping your makeup locked in place.
It gives me the hydration I need, with the same impressive staying power One/Size is known for. I wore it over my glam in the office and then to three hours of intensely watching a Knicks game at a bar, and it didn't budge. I also love the upgraded pump applicator over the original aerosol—it feels more skincare-forward, more precise when spraying, and of course better for the environment. The best part? The formula is also non-comedogenic, so you don't have to worry about it exacerbating or triggering acne while ya wear it. Truly no notes.
The new Powder Melt Glass Setting Spray is a heaven-sent for anyone with dry skin or after that ultra-smooth, runway-esque glassy finish. If you prefer a matte look, the original is still your best bet. But if dewy, hydrated skin is your goal—or if your complexion tends to feel tight by midday—this one's worth adding to your cart. I don't usually gush over setting sprays, but I must give credit where credit is due: Patrick Starrr really nailed it with this one.

Gavin Newsom is having his social media moment
'Fuck around' and 'find out,' read a TikTok post, following a screenshot announcing that California is suing President Donald Trump for deploying the National Guard to the streets of Los Angeles. But the TikTok wasn't shared by a typical meme account—it came from California Governor Gavin Newsom. 'I damn near fell over when I realized this was Gov. Newsom's page,' one user commented. Since Friday, demonstrations have erupted across Los Angeles in protest of the president's immigration policies and the ongoing Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids. Although many of the demonstrations have remained peaceful, there have been violent incidents including authorities deploying tear gas and rubber bullets, and protestors setting Waymo vehicles ablaze throughout the city. As tensions escalated, the Trump administration deployed the National Guard and Marines—despite objections from local officials—sparking a lawsuit from the state, threats of arrest against Governor Newsom, and a surge of defiant memes. 'And remember kids, the next time anybody tells you 'the government wouldn't do that', oh yes they would,' says the popular TikTok sound used on Newsom's official account video, playing over screenshots of news headlines and images of armed forces confronting demonstrators. In another viral video from the governor's page, which amassed over 5.4 million views, Taylor Swift's 'You Need To Calm Down' plays over a series of photos of the two politicians. 'r u ok?' the post asks, with a caption reading: 'America's keyboard warrior.' Newsom's clapback drew widespread praise in the comments. 'I do disagree with Newsom a lot but him standing up to tyranny and standing with your state takes some serious guts. Hats off to you Newsom,' wrote one user. He's also taken to his personal account to deliver meme-laced messages to Trump—one featuring a photoshopped image of the president wearing a crown, captioned 'send in the troops.' The slideshow ends with a shot from the musical Hamilton, with text reading: 'Democracy is under assault right before our eyes. It's time for all of us to stand up.' The online showdown has significantly boosted Newsom's social media presence, growing his personal TikTok account by approximately 397,000 followers and his official Governor account by 479,000 since Friday. Newsom is the latest in a growing number of politicians leveraging memes and social media to bypass traditional media and speak directly to the public through humor. Famously, Kamala Harris gained momentum during her presidential campaign with ' Brat summer ' and the coconut tree trend, while Joe Biden leaned into the viral ' Dark Brandon ' meme during his reelection campaign. Although meme strategies can generate enthusiasm and visibility, the 2024 election results suggest that online popularity doesn't always translate at the polls.

Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A video of a homeowner making a "jackpot" discovery beneath a carpet during renovation works has gone viral on TikTok. The clip was shared by Seren and Rhys (@our_edwardian_reno) and has garnered 513,000 views since it was posted on June 9. The short clip shows a woman peeling a carpet off the floor to reveal what appears to be Victorian tiles underneath it, according to a hashtag shared in the caption.

According to another video, the tiles were found on the day the poster was adding a new doorway to their hallway. The discovery in the viral post comes amid a broader trend of Americans investing in home renovations.

Seven out of 10 renovating homeowners were reported to have invested in interior room remodeling in 2023, according to the report. The viral video also comes as the global flooring market was estimated to be valued at $360.7 billion in 2024 and projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6.8 percent from 2025 to 2030, according to a report by Grandview Research, a market research firm headquartered in San Francisco. "Increasing demand for aesthetic, superior, and durable floor covering solutions and changing consumer trends in floor design have aided the growth of the flooring industry over the past few years," the report said. 'Dream Find' Viewers on TikTok were amazed by the incredible surprise finding beneath the carpet in the viral video.

Joe Flacco talks about 'embarrassing' TikTok dances: 'Be an adult'
Joe Flacco is the elder statesman of the Cleveland Browns quarterback room. Having just turned 40 in January, Flacco has morphed into the "back in my day guy" and is now just one step away from telling the young whippersnappers to get off his lawn. Flacco has embraced that youthful energy in the twilight of his NFL career, taking the opportunity to pose for a fun photo at media day with rookie, Dillon Gabriel. Advertisement Regardless, he continued to provide plenty of entertainment for the media following Wednesday's minicamp practices, turning the session into a chat about social media, TikTok and posting dancing videos online. Flacco began discussing Twitter, now known as X, as it has evolved into a primary source of news. "The difference now is, everybody's getting their stuff from there, and it's treated a little bit more seriously because that is the main news source," Flacco said, via 92.3 The Fan's Daryl Ruiter. "You still have the same thing you always had, which is a million different opinions, but it kind of blends your actual news source with a bunch of other stuff." The quarterback went on to say that Instagram is the only social media platform he's used and made one thing clear –don't expect him to show up in a TikTok dancing video anytime soon. Advertisement "No TikTok dances," Flacco said. "The fact that people want to get on their phones and show people. That's embarrassing! You're an adult. Be an adult. I can't wrap my head around that." He followed up with some advice for the parents. "I get it, you have kids and you wanna have fun with your kids," Flacco added. "Like, have fun with your kids in private." Flacco appears to be no fan of the current social media landscape, but he also extended his media availability to discuss the good old days. While he wasn't walking up and down the rolling hills in 10 feet of snow to school, the quarterback did end up speaking about players who think offseason activities are too hard in the modern NFL. Advertisement "We're out there for an hour 15 minutes and guys think it's hard," Flacco said via Yahoo Sports' Jori Epstein, referencing the two-a-days that used to be commonplace in the NFL. He went on to add that organized team activities (OTAs) used to be over two hours, highlighting just how much has changed since he entered the league in 2008. In other words, Flacco was in a reminiscing mood as the Super Bowl champion prepares for his 18th season in the league.
