Really great affordable option that has a nice atomizer (sprayer mist) and truly makes makeup last - one of my go-tos
Make it Last Setting Spray - Milani Cosmetics
Amazing worth the hype. It does kinda feel like you're spraying hairspray on your face and it does contain alcohol. The staying power makes it worth it to me.

I love this one for making my makeup last too but doesn’t give that dry “hairspray” type spray. It’s hydrating and feels more like a toner mist on the skin. Good for my dry skin girls

Eyeliner
A great option that is hypoallergenic and doesn't smudge on me.
