As any beauty vlogger will tell you, setting spray is more than just a final spritz. When you spend time on your makeup, you want it to last all day, whether you’re sweating or stressing. According to a girl named Sofia, the right setting spray means your makeup will last — even through a near-death experience.

Sofia went through a car accident, an ambulance ride, and a hospital stay, and her makeup lasted so well that she took to the Ulta website to write a review of the NYX Professional Makeup Matte Finish Makeup Setting Spray. In case you were looking for a “Best In a Crisis” product to add to your makeup bag, this is definitely it.

“I was hit by a car and through the hit itself, the rain, the ambulance ride, and the hours in the hospital, my makeup stayed completely intact the entire time,” she wrote in what may be the best product review ever written. Five stars for makeup that can survive a car accident!

“When I was discharged from the hospital I had to take off my makeup and none of it had moved,” she continued. “If this setting spray can survive being hit by a car then that’s all the proof I need and I’ll definitely be buying it again.” Long-wearing, indeed. NYX just earned a new customer for life, all thanks to a car accident.

With a review like this, the beauty community is ready to spend the $7.99 on a new setting spray. After all, we’re going to need to do our makeup once the nuclear bomb hits. “Alright well where can I buy 100 of these,” asked one makeup artist on Instagram. “Legit bought this product because of this review,” added another fan. “I’m sold,” agreed Millie Abbott.

After such an epic review, I think we all are.

“Mostly, we’re relieved that Sofia is recovering well enough from her accident to write a glowing and candid review of our Matte Setting Spray on ULTA.com,” says Sarah El-Annan, AVP at NYX Professional Makeup. “Our beauty junkies always come first!”

In addition to Sofia’s resounding five stars, the setting spray has a 4.3-star rating on Ulta and 4.2 stars on Amazon. Pick up one for your next high-stakes adventure!
