Four peach CAIA setting spray bottles in a row, with That Blurred Look marked NEW for radiant matte and waterproof wear

CAIA That Blurred Look Smoothing Setting Spray is a 100 ml radiant matte setting mist with niacinamide, modified rice starch and bentonite clay. Swedish brand CAIA Cosmetics released it on 1 October 2026 at 8 AM CEST for €27 in the EU and £24 in the UK, through its own EU and UK sites. CAIA describes it as "almost like setting powder in spray form": a weightless mist that, according to the brand, blurs, sets and mattifies in one step.

Release Date

CAIA launched That Blurred Look Setting Spray on 1 October 2026 at 8 AM CEST on caiacosmetics.com and caiacosmetics.co.uk. It arrived the same week as another matte-finish setting spray launch, the Skindinavia Makeup Finishing Sprays, whose three new sprays, including a Matte spray, went on sale in the US on 6 October 2026.

What's in the Kits

CAIA also sells the spray in two kits:

  • Hydra Blur Duo (€46): That Blurred Look plus That Extra Hydration Setting Spray (100 ml). According to CAIA, the value if bought separately is €54. CAIA pairs the hydrating mist as a prep or between-steps spray, with That Blurred Look as the finishing mist.
  • Blurred Base (€67): That Blurred Look plus CAIA's BB-Stick and the Flat Buffer Foundation Brush F14. According to CAIA, the value if bought separately is €79. The kit page lists BB-Stick shades from Fair with neutral undertones to Deep with neutral undertones.

That Blurred Look and CAIA's Setting Spray Family

CAIA already sells three other setting sprays:

  • That Dewy Look for glow and plumpness
  • That Extra Hydration for a moisture boost
  • That Extra Hour for 12-hour longwear

CAIA positions That Blurred Look as the option for a smooth, blurred finish with shine control. The brand says it gives an airbrushed effect without a flat, dry-looking complexion. Among other mattifying waterproof sprays on the BeautyTalkClub makeup releases page is the ONE/SIZE On 'Til Dawn Big & Bitty Duo, a holiday 2026 set of the brand's On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray.

What Makes the That Blurred Look Setting Spray Different?

  • It is the first spray in CAIA's setting spray family with a radiant matte, waterproof finish.
  • It uses oil-absorbing powders in a mist: modified rice starch (distarch phosphate) and bentonite clay, which CAIA compares to setting powder in spray form.
  • Besides the 100 ml spray, CAIA sells it in two kits: Hydra Blur Duo with That Extra Hydration and Blurred Base with the BB-Stick and F14 brush.

What the Brand Says About the Formula

  • Instant smoothing: the brand says it visibly reduces the appearance of pores and imperfections.
  • Shine control without dryness: according to CAIA, modified rice starch and bentonite (mineral) clay absorb excess oil and naturally mattify.
  • Texture refining: according to CAIA, niacinamide helps refine the look of skin texture and minimize the look of blemishes.
  • Long wear: the brand says makeup stays locked in for up to 12 hours with a waterproof, transfer-resistant finish that feels breathable all day.

Squalene, baobab pulp extract (Adansonia digitata), chlorella extract, magnesium aluminum silicate, sea salt and tocopherol also appear on the ingredient list. The list includes fragrance (parfum), so people with sensitive skin may want to patch test first.

CAIA cites testing for these claims. In a 7-day user test on 22 participants under dermatological control, 100% agreed the spray gives an instant smoothing effect and 97% agreed it gives a blurred finish. The 12-hour and waterproof claims come from a clinical evaluation on 22 participants under dermatological control.

How to Use

CAIA's directions are to apply makeup as usual, then shake the bottle very well. Close your eyes and mouth, hold the bottle about 30 cm from your face, and mist 3–4 times for even coverage across the whole face before letting it set. The brand says its specially designed pump spreads the mist evenly.
