The truth about mists
The what, the why and the how about the product. With our most popular myths debunked.
What are skincare mists?
Mists are sprayable hydrators that give a burst of hydration that feels amazing. They can be made up of mineral-packed thermal source water or deep sea water and may have all kinds of enticing ingredients.
What makes mists more than a luxury?
Freshness in a can
Like dew on a flower, mists give skin added radiance simply by adding water. If you wear a full face of makeup daily, mists make it easy to stay fresh without moisturiser.
‘‘A cooling mist is a summer thing’’
Winter wonder
While they can help you stay as cool as a sea breeze in summer, mists are also perfect for beating the dry indoor microclimates that winter brings.
‘‘Mists dry out skin’’
Maybe sometimes
This may be true in a very dry place, like a plane or with a mist like hyaluronic acid, which can pull moisture from your skin if the air is extremely dry. You can prevent it by misting and then applying moisturiser or facial oil to seal in hydration.
‘‘Mists don’t have any real skincare benefits’’
Hydration is just the start
Face mists today have so many active ingredients they’re more like spray-on serums. Floral and spring water mists are excellent for calming and hydrating, and new products contain exciting ingredients like niacinamide and even probiotics.
