Customer reviews

I love it best eye primer

Great service! Christina, the District Manager, was super! Knowledgeable, friendly, and so helpful. My visit was great! Thank you, Christina! I'll be back again!

This has been so horrible I can’t use it. The powder gets all over your clothes, hair, etc. not like it use to be.

love love love love, honestly my makeup looks so smooth with this and it does lastttt I wish it was water proof but its honestly so good

I used the Ulta brand primer for years and I can’t find the same kind any more so I figured since this was a better brand I would have better luck with it and although I have now purchased it twice, I can’t say I would recommend it for how much it cost because it’s not that great you could probably find comparable at a drugstore my naked palettes are incredible and they always stayed very vibrant and stayed put with the Ulta primer, but I have to reapply my eyeshadow for all day wear and freshness. Tends to look muted / blended and dull half way through the day.

The spray is good & keeps my make up at bay some of the day but I find after 3-4 hours I have to reapply powder to the oily parts of my face eg: my forehead & around my nose. The spray itself leaves lots of little white dots on my skin & clothes!! Its horrible as no matter how far away i use it, it still gives off white specks!

This is my favorite eyeshadow primer!

Awful product. Left white liquidy splotches everywhere. The pump didn’t work great either as it just came out and one solid spritz. I had to use the OG Product product before and loved it. This wouldn’t be able to set any makeup has this had to be rubbed in as well.

The Best Setting Sprays to Lock in Makeup for 12 Hours

Your foundation isn't going anywhere.

The Best Setting Sprays

How to pick a setting spray for your skin type, when to use a setting spray, how to use a setting spray.

After finishing a makeup look , the last thing you want to do is smear your eyeliner or sweat off your foundation . That's where a spritz of one of the best setting sprays can work some magic. A setting spray sets your makeup helping the makeup stay put throughout the day.

It sounds like a trick, but it's really just science. Setting sprays work by forming a protective layer over your makeup, locking it in place with a flexible, breathable barrier made of film-forming polymers. Besides extending longevity, the best setting sprays can help with oil control, keep your skin hydrated (therefore stopping your makeup from getting dry and cakey), and refresh your overall look.

"If you need your makeup to stay in place over six hours then using a setting spray is a must," notes makeup artist Jonet Williamson . Ahead, experts clue us in on their favorite setting sprays. Plus, how to use them.

What to Look For in a Setting Spray

Aimee Carr , a medical aesthetician and founder of Voodoo Makeup, notes that a setting spray can have a few benefits—depending, of course, on your chosen formula. "Formulations can vary and also give you purposes like smudge-proof, waterproof, and sweat-proof, or desired finishing looks like matte or dewy."

Nearly every setting spray helps your makeup last all day. "It's important to match a setting spray with your intended goal," adds Carr. "This can be based on what activities you are doing that day, how long you anticipate wearing makeup, what final look you are hoping to achieve, etc."

• Ingredients

The primary ingredients in setting sprays are film-forming polymers, which settle into a protective film over your makeup. You can also find setting sprays with hydrating ingredients like glycerin and hyaluronic acid, which attract moisture and keep your makeup from getting cakey.

• The Best Setting Spray Overall: Urban Decay All Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray
• The Best Hydrating Setting Spray: Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray
• The Best Setting Spray for a Matte Finish: One/Size by Patrick Starrr On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray
• The Best Drugstore Setting Spray: NYX Professional Makeup Long Lasting Makeup Setting Spray
• The Best Setting Spray for a Glowy Finish: Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Dewy Long-Lasting Setting Spray

A true classic, Urban Decay's All-Nighter Waterproof Makeup Setting Spray was first introduced over a decade ago. These days, it comes in several variations (ultra matte! extra glowy! infused with vitamin C for hydration!), but the original is still the brightest star. Waterproof, smudge-proof, and transfer-resistant, the smooth spray has been proven to keep makeup in place for 16 hours.

Pros: Long-lasting; Cult-favorite; Cooling; Transfer-resistant; Waterproof; Doesn't settle into fine lines

Cons: None found

Williamson recommends Charlotte Tilbury's Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray, an alcohol—and oil-free spray that provides up to 16 hours of protection. It's ideal for those with dry to normal skin looking for a hydrating finish; it includes moisture barrier-supporting Japanese green tea for that very purpose. It's also celebrity makeup artist Renée Loiz 's choice to protect clients' face makeup before she applies eye makeup and blush. "It sets everything in place while keeping the face hydrated," she shares.

Pros: Long-lasting; Hydrating; Glowy finish

Cons: Scent is too fragrant for some customers

Williamson and Loiz love this pick for those with combination or oily skin who want a matte finish. "Thanks to its waterproof formula, this ensures makeup stays put all day, even under hot lights and cameras," Loiz shares. Light as air thanks to its aerosol formula and oil-absorbing thanks to carefully thought-out ingredients like witch hazel, this holds makeup in place for up to 16 hours and leaves you with a blurred, matte finish.

Pros: Long-lasting; Matte Finish; Waterproof

Cons: Some customers don't love the scent

Lightweight and ready to lock in your gorgeous makeup for a long, long time, NYX Professional Makeup's Matte Finish Makeup Setting Spray is infused with niacinamide for a little hydrating action. Leaving you with a matte finish, the vegan and cruelty-free misting formula will help your makeup last all day at a price point everyone can appreciate.

Pros: Affordable; Long-lasting; Customers love the non-overpowering fragrance

Cons: Formula isn't waterproof

According to Carr, Milk's Hydro Grip is a consumer and artist favorite. "This one gives you a glow but is not sticky which is ideal when looking for a setting spray," she shares. With a radiant finish, the lightweight spray features skin-loving ingredients like blue agave extract to set makeup (preventing melting, fading, and creasing in the process) and hemp seed extract and aloe to calm, soothe, and impart moisture alongside their also-hydrating friends hyaluronic acid and niacinamide.

Pros: Skin-loving ingredients; Lasts up to 12 hours; Can also be used as a hydrating mist

Cons: Some customers find the finish too glowy

Also Recommended

If you spend a lot of time in front of your computer, ILIA's Blue Light Protect + Set Mist might be the setting spray for you. "This product not only sets your makeup, but it hydrates and firms the skin. Therefore it's great for those with dry skin or those who may have uneven texture," says Carr. It also protects your skin from pollution, free radicals, and blue light exposure. With a matte finish that helps tackle shine and smooth your look, the product's skin-loving ingredients take care of your complexion from the inside while its lavender scent soothes your mind.

Pros: Skin-loving ingredients; Protects against free radicals; Hydrating

Cons: Some customers have trouble with the spray nozzle

Packed with SPF 50, Marie Claire called Kate Somerville's UncompliKated SPF Soft Focus Makeup Setting Spray the overall best makeup setting spray with SPF in our roundup of the best spray sunscreens . "If you're looking for a 2-in-1, this double-duty formula acts as a SPF and matte-finishing makeup spray. That's right—this spray will keep your makeup in place and add a soft blurred finish for a long-lasting look," wrote beauty editor Samantha Holender . Scented with lavender essential oil, it also features hyaluronic acid for increased hydration.

Pros: Easy to apply; Innovative; Contains SPF

Cons: More expensive than other options

Totally weightless and wildly dewy, I took to regularly spritzing Tatcha's Luminous Dewy Skin Mist even when I didn't have any makeup on years ago—and I just can't quit. While not technically a setting spray, this fine mist moisturizer does the trick and was created to be worn under or over your makeup to prevent caking, also helping to fight dryness and dullness with a proprietary complex of Okinawa red algae and hyaluronic acid.

Pros: Moisturizing; Skin-loving ingredients; Leaves you with a glow

Cons: Not waterproof

The go-to spray in many beauty vlogs, Morphe's beloved Continuous Setting Mist is an aerosol spray engineered to deliver an even application that won't quit until you take your finger off the trigger. Microfine in texture, it was created to work with both liquid and powder makeup. Pros also love using it directly on a makeup sponge to help smooth makeup.

Pros: Cult-favorite; Easy to apply; Lightweight

Cons: Some customers find the fragrance too strong

Crafted to be used before, during, and after makeup application, Iconic London's always glowy and never greasy Prep-Set-Glow Hydrating Setting Spray has built-in light-reflecting particles for an instantaneous shimmer (you can get it in two shades, depending how hefty of a glow you want). It's also infused with dark circle-fighting caffeine, skin-soothing chamomile and cucumber, antioxidants, green tea, and vitamin E.

Pros: Luminous finish; Available in two shades; Keeps makeup in place

Williamson notes that some setting sprays may work better than others, depending on your skin type. "I'd suggest a hydrating setting spray like Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray or Milk Hydro Grip Setting Spray for dry to normal skin and a matte finish setting spray like One Size On Til Dawn for combo oily skin," she shares. If your skin is on the dryer side, look for ingredients like glycerin or hyaluronic acid, whereas if your skin is oily, look for oil-absorbing ingredients like witch hazel.

Salma Hayek wore Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray at the 2024 Oscars.

Loiz has a secret trick for applying setting spray, and it includes two products. First, you'll use a hydrating setting spray, applying it after your foundation, concealer, and/or setting powder. Then, after completing the rest of your blush, bronzer, and eye makeup, apply a long-wearing spray to ensure your makeup stays in place.

"Applying both these techniques guarantees that makeup will stay put," she shares. "Setting the foundation and concealer initially secures them in place during the rest of the makeup application. Then, a final spritz with a long-wear spray locks in the entire look, ensuring it stays flawless all day without budging!"

As for the actual application, you'll want to close your eyes and hold the bottle eight to 10 inches away from your face. Then, spray in an X-marks-the-spot shape to make sure you get full coverage before allowing the product to dry down.

How we found the best setting spray

As shopping experts, our only job is to help you find a winning product. We start with the research and reporting basics—what products are made of, what they look like and how much they cost—to ensure that we're only recommending the buys that are worth your time and money. Then, we research the features that speak to the product's quality, taking advice from industry insiders and subject matter experts on what makes a product a smart value (or worthy of a splurge). Finally, we do the work of combing through user reviews to see how real people interact with the product, and if it stands up to the test

What does a setting spray do?

A setting spray essentially extends the wear of makeup by creating a seal and preventing transfer and smudging. By controlling oil and using cooling properties, setting sprays keep everything in place.

Do professional makeup artists use setting spray?

Yes. In fact, a setting spray was a makeup artist's secret to keep performers' makeup intact under stage lights and active dance routines. Due to how well it worked, setting sprays eventually crossed over to mass market makeup. Adding one to your routine is a makeup rule to follow.

What is the right way to use setting spray?

The best way to apply a setting spray is to hold the bottle about six to eight inches away from the face and apply it in a "T" and "X" form with your eyes closed. Use a makeup sponge to pat it on your skin.

What's better: setting spray or powder?

Actually, you can use both. Setting powder is used to mattify makeup and absorb oil, while setting spray often leaves a dewier (but non-greasy) finish. Depending on your skin type and your lifestyle, combining both is the best way to prevent unwanted shine and get your makeup to last longer. If you have dry skin, skip powder and go straight for a spritz of setting spray.

Moscow Launches New Smart City District as a Living Lab

• Written by Eric Baldwin
• Published on December 13, 2018

The government of Moscow has begun developing an existing district in the city to test nearly 30 new ‘smart’ technologies for urban development. Home to over 8,000 people, the district is testing ideas on smart lighting, smart waste management, and smart heating. The city intends to evaluate what impact technologies bring to residents and adjust its urban renewal plan once the pilot is complete.

When creating a smart district, cities tend to choose new, empty or even abandoned areas to build a district from a scratch, which is faster, easier and more cost-efficient. However, Moscow authorities made the decision to create one in an already existing neighborhood to bring top tech solutions. In April 2018, authorities began implementing technologies in selected buildings situated in Maryino district on the southeast of Moscow . The district includes seven apartment buildings with different years of construction from 1996 to 1998. Each residential building has a different construction type that gives an advantage to pilot the technologies under various conditions.

Andrey Belozerov, Strategy and Innovations Adviser to CIO of Moscow explained: “We didn’t want to build a district from a scratch as a test bed far from real-world settings. Our aim was to test technologies in inhabited neighborhood so it allows us to see whether citizens get advantage of new technologies in their everyday tasks. When the pilot is completed we aim to adjust the city urban renewal plan, so Muscovites enjoy living in similar technology-savvy buildings around the city in the future”.

The smart district residents can access smart systems responsible for heating, lighting, and waste collection. In total selected residential buildings are equipped with twenty nine different smart technologies. As part of the project the first charging station for electric vehicles situated in residential district has been installed in Moscow – it has already become the most popular charging station for electric vehicles in the city. In addition, free Wi-Fi network is available on site. Each resident can install free mobile application to answer the house intercom when no one is around or open the door without a key. The project aims to improve quality of life and provide comfort and safety for residents.

Scenery Review : Moscow City XP by Drzewiecki Design

• drzewiecki design

By Stephen September 24, 2016 in Payware Airports and Scenery Reviews

• Reply to this topic

Recommended Posts

You fly for hours, anticipating your arrival, wanting to take in the area and the views of another country far away from your departure airport. The airport and the area you leave from is detailed and visually full, and you know you have a great airport scenery waiting for you at the other end of the flight, then when you arrive...

...  Nothing, but flat plain emptiness and the same boring standard X-Plane basic scenery, worse there is no OSM (Open Street Map) data in the tile either, so there is no road or autogen detailing in there as well, just well nothing.

When Drzewiecki Design released their UUEE Sheremetyevo Airport XP , I loved it because it was like a visitor from the Cold War past, the Soviet era, and it was also great scenery and great choice of a destination to fly to from any of the capitals of Europe...  but that was it, just this great airport in the middle of nothingness, bland....   zero ville.

Now Drzewiecki Design has released "Moscow City"  a scenery package to compliment their UUEE Sheremetyevo, and boy how much a difference this release has done to this totally boring area.

To get the full first impression effect I flew JARDesign's A320neo from EFHK Vatnaa, Helsinki to UUEE Sheremetyevo which is flight Finnair AY153 which is a daily 9.25am service.

First Impressions

I was surprised to start picking up scenery still quite away out from central Moscow, as I approached my 6000ft transition altitude. Here there was buildings and houses and the physical visual notes you were arriving somewhere.

Looking hard at the horizon through the A320's windows and you could see the iconic silhouette of Moscow city.

The scenery provides lite versions of all Moscow's Airports, this is UUWW Vnukovo, which was easily recognisable as you flew over. As you fly closer to the centre of the city the density of the objects below becomes quite heavy as the landscape fills in. You have all kinds of infrastructure including, blocks of flats, tower blocks, factories, housing, skyscrapers and almost everything that makes up an urban landscape, in all there is 2000 custom-made buildings that makes up this impressive scenery.

A note here in that you don't get that rolling as you move feeling effect where as it just suddenly appears in front of you and then quickly disappears behind as soon as you have flown out over the area. There is a slight effect of that as there has to be, but only in the far distance and as you can see from the images the views in every direction are widespread and visually it is very good to excellent.

The "Seven Sisters" or "Stalinist skyscrapers" built from 1947 to 1953 are all in the scenery with their "Wedding Cake" architecture or officially  Russian Baroque               - Gothic style. Most famous is the Moscow State University, front and centre of the image below.

Central Moscow is excellent and extremely realistic, and you really need a travel guide to pick out the landmarks and detail, but it is hard to miss the Red Kremlin complex  and St Peter's square from the air.  Both sides of the aircraft is visually full until you have crossed right over the city.

I am not a fan of the generated 3d OSM scenery, but this is very good in blending in perfectly with the X-Plane default scenery and giving you a smooth transition from country to urban and back again with great realism.

Over the city and turning north towards Sheremetyevo, another Moscow airport UUMU Chkalovsky is represented on the turn.

The city skyline is now easily visible on landing at Sheremetyevo, and that really helps in the arrival factor, more so in that the cities building infrastructure spread now comes up and around the airport to fill the gaps to the city itself, and making the original  Sheremetyevo scenery that was so open and lonely in the old X-Plane view is now a big part of the whole in this combination. No doubt it really brings this always good scenery now alive and very usable.

Sheremetyevo Airport

Before we move on to the city itself. It is important to note the area around UUEE Sheremetyevo itself.

Compare the large image above to the earlier image at the start of this review to see the amount of change there is around UUEE Sheremetyevo with the addition of this Moscow City package. The two sceneries are of course meant to be used together, and in reality it would look odd if you had Moscow City scenery installed without the Sheremetyevo scenery included to fill out the northern areas. A highlight is that both sceneries together form a single whole, as the areas between the airport and the central city area are well filled in and that gives you a huge area of coverage and the full visual aspect.

To get a closer lower look at the Moscow Center I commandeered Dreamfoil's lovely Bell 407.

There is a 4.000km² total area covered with this scenery here, and you have expect some sort of building replication to cover all that ground. There is of course but as well in the fact there is also enough variations as to not keep it all interesting and not obviously visually obvious.

The closer you go to the central area, the variations in the buildings change there in style and density as well. And then more of the iconic buildings start to appear as you get closer in again to the middle. The business district is excellent, with a lot of business towers and the more modern futuristic skyscraper architecture that stands out in every view point in eye scans across the city.

The more recent is in tune with the more older Stalinist era that makes up the Moscow skyline.

The Kremlin Complex and the Cathedral of Vasily the Blessed (St Basil's) is excellently represented and so is "Red Square"

There are Orthodox churches everywhere and all the big icons in the Moscow Cathedral Mosque, Cathedral of Christ the Savior, Grand Arena of the Central Lenin Stadium, Otkrytive Arena and department stores, museums and power stations and more....

I did have issues with many buildings floating, including the Kremlin. I tried both "Runways follow terrain contours" on and off with no flattening of the objects and there is no information in the manual either on how to fix the problem.

Night lighting is very good, yes there is again a repeatable pattern to the majority of the hundreds of the apartment blocks that does stand out, but the more individual buildings do all have that personal touch and some buildings look really very good.

The highlight here is the business district which looks magnificent and is very realistic from any direction at night as is the lit Stadium.

Although away from the central area the Ostankino Tower that stands 540.1 metres (1,772 ft) tall, and is the tallest freestanding structure in Europe and it looks great at night and is a very good position indicator from the air from any direction.

Included Moscow Airports

As noted also included in the scenery are seven airports and several helipads.

UUWW Vnukovo

The futuristic Vnukovo International is very good for a lite version, with great terminals and lots of small detailing. Only thing missing is the static aircraft and a bit more ramp equipment, but otherwise it is highly usable.

UUDD Domodedovo

The oldest of Moscow's International airports is Domodedovo. Again it is quite devoid of static aircraft and I am not crazy about the blue terminal glass work, but it is still a very workable scenery to use and has a lot of well made objects.

UUBW Zhukovsky

Zhukovsky was a major aircraft testing facility since the  cold war years, with most of the major Russian Experimental Design Bureau's having facilities here. It is also now used by the Ministry of Emergency Situations! and cargo carriers. It was also used as a test site for the Soviet Buran  reusable Spacecraft because it has the world's second longest pubic runway at at 5,402 m (17,723 ft). Mostly it is a collection of very large hangars but has a lot of static aircraft in storage.

UUMO Ostafyevo International Business Airport

A former military airbase. Ostafyevo features a new modern glass terminal, and caters primarily to business aviation.

UUMU Chkalovsky

Chkalovsky is a military logistics airport that is famous for it's support for the Russian Space program and transport to Star City and the Yuri A. Gagarin State Scientific Research-and-Testing Cosmonaut Training Center. Yuri Gagarin left here on his final flight before crashing by the town of Kirzhach.

UUBM Myachkovo Airport

Myachkovo is a small General Aviation Airport that is owned by the Finpromko company. Cargo aircraft up to the size of the Ilyushin ll-76 freighter can also use the airport.

UUMB Kubinka

Kubinka has been a significant Russian military airbase and large airshows are held here to show off the Russian military might.

There is also provided UUU1 Kremlin Airport, within the Kremlin walls, but I couldn't get it to work? There are two pads in H1 and H2.

Your first thoughts after reviewing this excellent Moscow scenery is not with this actual package. You then wish that you could have this extensive scenery at London, Rome, Madrid, Berlin and the list could go on with any of your favorite European Cities, and don't count a load in the Middle East and Asia. But a London scenery like this would certainly be a godsend in our X-Plane world. Drzewiecki Design has already done Warsaw and Manhattan, so there is always hope.

It is not cheap either and you need to add in their UUEE Sheremetyevo scenery package on top of that as well. But you get an awful lot of ground covered here for your money, with the area covered here that is extensive...  huge and flying into Moscow will never be the same again.

A few areas to note in one that in my case a few of the buildings floated, the download is huge load at 1.4gb and this Russian area is not the best for navigation aids and programming FMS units as most waypoints are not recognised. Most of the airports ILS coordinates also have to checked and recalibrated (Drzewiecki Design do provide all the correct coordinates) so there is a little work to do to set up repeat services but the work is worth the results.

Not only is the actual Moscow city and all it's buildings supported, you also get seven (if lite versions) of Moscow's other airports included as well, but the framerate processing of all this huge amount of objects and scale is pretty good to excellent. Framerate does hurt more on a lower (helicopter) level and certainly you need a computer with a little extra power is in no doubt required, but overall for the size of the area the scenery is extremely efficient.

Yes I was impressed by this Moscow City Scenery, as this once very barren area of X-Plane is now a very attractive repeat destination as nothing can give you a greater fulfilment than seeing your destination appear in the distance and then give you a huge visual experience as you fly over and approach your destination.

Moscow City certainly delivers that and more...  Just more sceneries like this please!

Thank you for this very thorough (as always) review. I just bought it (it's on sale) and have only one disappointment so far: Red Square has no ILS or any landing aids at all for that matter. And what a nightmare of an approach! Also I was hoping the package would include an add-on that gives my c172 a big cup holder for my Stoli. Otherwise the scenery is gorgeous. What a country!

I have personally researched, explored and shot Street Photography in every city that I create a guide for. So you can be ready to capture the streets as soon as you step outside with your camera!

At over 12 million people, Moscow is the largest city in Russia and second largest in Europe by population ( Istanbul is #1). An urban, cosmopolitan metropolis with more than enough glitz and glam to cater to the elite, but without losing its fair share of Soviet era roughness around the edges. It can be fast paced, brash, busy, and trendy like other big cities, but it has its blend of West meets Russia atmosphere and beauty that provides plenty of unique interest. The Red Square is as famous as it gets, but there’s so much more to this city, including the most beautiful subway system you’ve ever seen. It would take years to capture all of Moscow, but that means you have an endless amount of areas to discover.

So here’s a Street Photography guide so you can be ready to capture all that Moscow has to offer before you even arrive!

• Patriarch’s Pond
• Old Arbat Street
• Maroseyka Street
• Tverskoy Boulevard

Top 5 Street Spots:

1. red square.

The Red Square is the most famous square in not just Russia, but all of Eastern Europe. The name actually doesn’t come from the color of the bricks or communism, but from the name in Russian, Krásnaya, once meaning “beautiful” before its meaning changed to “red.” This large plaza is what you see on the cover of guide books and magazines for Moscow, with St. Basil’s Cathedral being the center piece next to Lenin’s Mausoleum surrounded by the Kremlin Wall. Of course, the Red Square attracts hordes of tourist due to the main attractions, but all that activity around an interesting atmosphere does provide street photo opportunities. It’s also the central square connecting to the city’s major streets, providing a good starting point to explore outward.

You’ll also find the popular pedestrian only Nikolskaya Street connecting the Red Square to Lubyanka Square. This line of expensive shops includes plenty of activity, while also leading you to another popular square. Filled with history rivaling any city, the Red Square and surrounding areas are the heart and soul of Russia.

2. Patriarch’s Ponds

Patriarch’s Ponds is one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Moscow. Despite the name being plural, there’s only one large pond, but it’s worth a visit with your camera. It’s a popular spot for locals and expats to come relax or take a stroll around the pond. You get an interesting mix of young and old too, from young love to “babushkas” feeding pigeons. It’s a very peaceful park atmosphere in one of the nicer areas within the city center, while bringing enough activity for street photography. 

The pond is shallow and in the winter becomes a popular spot for ice-skating too. The area is also well-known for the location in the famous Russian novel, The Master and Margarita. 

3. Old Arbat (Stary Arbat)

Old Arbat is the most famous pedestrian street in Moscow, and dating back to the 15th century, also one of its oldest. Originally, it was an area of trade, but soon became the most prestigious residential area in Moscow. During the 18th century, Arbat started attracting the city’s scholars and artists, including Alexander Pushkin. Cafes lined the streets and impressive homes filled the neighborhood. Since then, New Arbat street was created as a highway in the area, while Old Arbat was paved for a 1km pedestrian only walkway.

Due to the historic buildings, famous artists that lived here, and the bohemian atmosphere, Old Arbat has become a big attraction for tourists today. Now, there’s a mix of cafes, restaurants, souvenir shops, street performers, street merchants and other attractions for visitors, and some locals, to come enjoy. It can get really busy here and there’s usually something interesting going on so it’s a good street to come walk with your camera for guaranteed life.

4. Gorky Park

One of the most famous places in Moscow is Gorky Park. The official name is Maxim Gorky’s Central Park of Culture & Leisure, which gives you an idea of what goes on here. When built, it was the first of its kind in the Soviet Union. Divided into two parts, it stretches along Moscow River. One end contains fair rides, foods stands, tennis courts, a sports club, a lake for boat rides, and more. This end brings more active life due to its number of attractions, while the other end is more relaxed, where you’ll find gardens, trees, older buildings, and an outdoor amphitheater.

Gorky Park attracts mostly locals so it’s a good spot to capture the non-tourist side of Moscow life. Muscovites come here to escape the city and unwind in a picturesque setting. The park remains alive outside of the warmer months too, especially when the lake turns into the city’s largest outdoor skating rink. I’d recommend taking the metro out here to spend at least half a day exploring the massive park’s life with your camera.

5. Maroseyka Street

Maroseyka Street is a popular area not too far from the Red Square. The long, winding street turns into Pokrovka and is lined with restaurants, cafes, bars and places to stay. It’s actually where I like to stay when I’m in Moscow due to its location and solid street photography opportunities itself. You have Kitay-gorod station near and if you keep walking southwest, you’ll get to the Red Square. But if you walk northwest, as it changes to Pokrovka, you can find a long street of activity for photography with its own interesting atmosphere.

6. Tverskoy Boulevard

Tverskoy Boulevard is the oldest and longest boulevard in Moscow, beginning at the end of Nikitsky Boulevard, and finishing at Pushkin Square, a spot to come for activity itself. The boulevard is made up of two avenues, with pedestrian walkways in-between. You’ll find grass, shrubbery, trees, benches and more walking it’s almost kilometer length. Many people come here to enjoy some relaxation, walk their dog, or just to use it to walk wherever they’re going. Its center location also provides a nice place to walk with your camera near plenty of other spots you’ll want to check out anyway.

Sample Street Walk:

For a full day of Street Photography, covering some of the best spots, you can follow this sample street walk for Moscow:

• Start your morning walking around the Red Square (1), while exploring the surrounding area, including Nikolskaya Street
• Then walk northwest to Patriarch’s Ponds (2) and slowly walk the pond and surrounding area with your camera
• Next, walk east to the Pushkin Monument and stroll down Tverskoy Boulevard (6)
• Once Tverskoy Boulevard (6) ends, it will turn into Nikitsky Boulevard. Follow this down until you get to the start of Old Arbat Street (3), across from Arbatskaya station
• After you’re done walking down Old Arbat Street (3) for more street photography, spend some time checking out Moscow’s beautiful metro stations
• To finish off the day with more street photography, get off the metro near Red Square (1) again, Maroseyka Street (5) or wherever you’re staying for the night.

3 Things I’ll Remember about Shooting in Moscow:

1. museum metro.

The Moscow metro system was the first underground railway system in the Soviet Union and today includes 203 stations across 340km of routes. The elaborate system has some of the deepest stations in the world too, with escalators that seem to go on forever. None of this is what makes it so special, though. Many of its stations feel like stepping inside a museum, making it without a doubt the most interesting and beautiful metro system I’ve been in.

When built, Stalin wanted to make the metro stations “palaces for the people” with marble, chandeliers, and grand architecture. The best part is the variety of architecture and styles used, making many of the stations a completely different experience visually. You could easily spend a whole day traveling the stations and there are even tours available for people who wish to do just that. My advice, though, would be just to buy a ticket and hop on and off at different stations, while exploring different lines. The museum-like surrounding mixed with the crowds of characters can make for a great photography experience.

Since there are so many stations, here are some of my favorites to check out:

• Novoslobodskaya
• Mayakovskaya
• Elektrozavodskaya
• Komsomolskaya
• Ploschad Revolyutsii
• Dostoyevskaya
• Prospekt Mira

2. Moscow is Big

It’s no secret that Moscow is a big city, but it can feel even bigger with how spread out much of it is. This is especially true if you compare it to cities outside of Asia. If I compared it to cities in Europe, I’d probably say only Istanbul would warrant more time to really discover the depths of this city. Most only explore around the Red Square and surrounding area, but that is such a small part of the city. Although, that central area does give you plenty to see on its own.

Fortunately, I had a good friend living in the city to show me around, but it opened up my eyes even more to how much there is to discover in Moscow. It’s a big city with a variety of atmosphere that can take you from “east” to “west” and trendy to rugged depending on where you go. I’d imagine you’d have to live here a while to really know the city.

3. Cosmopolitan Mix of East meets West

Modern skyscrapers mixed with amazing architecture, a world-class metro system with museum-like beauty, trendy fashion and chic clubs, Moscow is a rich mix of Russian culture and history in a more western cosmopolitan package. There is a push to keep the Russian culture, while also pushing forward with a modern metropolis the whole world will envy. This comes with an impressive skyline, that continues to grow, and endless modernities, but with soviet nostalgia and atmosphere mixed in for good measure.

Mixed in with this grand western cosmopolitan atmosphere, is a strong national pride in Russia. This includes their famous leader, Vladimir Putin. Maybe no other place will you see a country’s leader more often. All over, from the pricey tourist shops to the underground walkway stalls, you’ll find goods with Putin’s likeness covering them. From t-shirts to magnets to Matryoshka dolls. There’s a strong national pride that can be seen around the city, which also extends to their leader. Moscow is many things. It’s East meets West, modernizations meets Soviet era, and a whole lot more.

What To Do For a Street Photography Break?:

Eat at a stolovaya.

Stolovayas are Russian cafeterias that became popular in the Soviet days. You grab a tray and walk down the line of freshly prepared local dishes, and select whatever you want from the chefs. They’re usually inexpensive and a much better value than restaurants, while giving you the opportunity to try from a wide selection of everyday Russian food. They’re also very tasty. I always include some borsch on my tray and go from there. The places themselves are all over Moscow and usually come with Soviet-era aesthetics to complete the experience.

Street Safety Score: 7

*As always, no place is completely safe! So when I talk about safety, I’m speaking in general comparison to other places. Always take precaution, be smart, observe your surroundings and trust your instincts anywhere you go!

Being the 2nd largest city in Europe with over 12 million people, you’re going to have your dangerous areas, but for the most part, it feels safe walking around. Russia is statistically higher in crime compared to most of Europe, but this generally doesn’t apply to tourists and visitors. Around the Red Square and surrounding city center, you should feel completely safe walking around. Pick pocketing can happen, but no more than other touristic places. I always explore Moscow freely without coming across too much to worry about. It’s a spread out city, though, so of course it matters where you are. Just use basic street smarts, know where you are and Moscow shouldn’t give you a problem. 

People’s Reaction Score: 7

Moscow is fast paced, big city life, which usually means people aren’t too concerned with you, or your camera. I don’t find people notice or pay much attention to me when I’m out taking photos in Moscow. For the most part, people just go about their day. You shouldn’t get too many looks or concern. But it can depend on the area you are in. The more you stick out, the more you might get noticed with suspicions. I’ve never had any problems in Moscow, or Russia, but just be careful who you’re taking a photo of if you get out of the city center. Other than that, it’s about average for reactions. 

Street Tips:

Learn the alphabet .

Much of Moscow, including the metro system, doesn’t use english. The Russian alphabet uses letters from the Cyrillic script, which if you aren’t familiar with it and don’t know the sounds, can be hard to decipher the words. This is most important for street names and metro stops when trying to get around. It can save confusion and make it easier getting around if you learn the basic alphabet. At the very least then, you can sound out the words to see which are similar in the english conversion, which can help matching them to maps. When out shooting street photography, getting around is as important as anything. So save yourself some time and frustration by learning the Russian Alphabet.

Use the metro

While Saint-Petersburg feels very walkable for a city its size, Moscow can feel very spread out, even for its bigger size. Outside of the Red Square area, you can have plenty of walking before getting anywhere very interesting, so you’ll need to take the metro a lot if you really want to explore the city. Maps are deceiving here too, it will always be further than it looks.

Another reason it’s less walkable than Saint-Petersburg is its completely different set-up. Moscow’s streets are mostly contstructed in rings with narrow, winding streets in-between. This is common with medieval city cities that used to be confined by walls, but you usually don’t have it in a city this massive. Saint-Petersburg has a more grid-like pattern that also uses the canals to help you know your way around. When it comes to navigating on foot in Moscow, it can be more difficult, so bring a map and take the metro when needed. It’s why Moscow’s metro carries more passengers per day than the London and Paris subways combined.

Explore other areas if you have time

Moscow is really big. While most people stay around the Red Square within the Boulevard Ring, there’s so much more to the city. I covered some other spots outside of this circle, but if you really want to see the city, you’ll need time. If you do have time, some other areas I’d check out first are Zamoskvarechye, along some of the south and western Moscow.

For some more inspiration, you can look through the Street Photography of Moscow photographer Artem Zhitenev  and check out 33 of my photos taken in Moscow .

Conclusion:

Moscow’s name brings a certain mystique, but once you’re there it might bring a different atmosphere than you expect. It’s big and sprawling, but beautiful in many ways. It can feel like a European capital on a grand scale, but you can definitely find its Russian side in there.

The urban sprawl of Moscow can be intimidating, but give it enough time and you’ll be rewarded with plenty to discover. All with the world’s best metro system to take you around.

I hope this guide can help you start to experience some of what Moscow contains. So grab your camera and capture all that Moscow has to offer for Street Photography!
