Question Where does setting spray go?

Obviously I know its applied to your face but im wondering where in my routine its supposed to go? Ive watched multiple creators applying setting spray throughout their makeup routine instead of just as the last step. Im a beginner in makeup and very confused

Me: foundation, concealer, setting powder, bronzer, blush, and finally eyes.

So hot take here but I do my eyes before the concealer because I hate cleaning my undereye and redoing it when I have fallout.

It depends on what kind of spray you are using and that’s confusing to beginners because they’re all labeled setting spray.

If it’s a true hydrating spray, like d’Alba or Anua PDRN Hyaluron spray, I use it between steps to merge products and keep my skin moist. If it’s a more of a hydrating setting spray, I use it after loose powder and before pressed powders. Fixings spray, which reduces transfer, is last, like L’Oréal infallible 3-second in the red can.
