Hear me out: face mists are not a summer skincare fad but a year-round handbag essential that can be your skin’s best friend in different scenarios. Whether you need an instant refresh during a long day, an in-flight hydration boost, or a dewy make-up reset before a night out, face mists offer a quick and easy solution. A new wave of face mists are here, packed with additional benefits that go far beyond hydration.
Infused with skincare actives, these next generation face spritzes and sprays are hard workers. From SPF reapplication mists that make sun protection a breeze to peptide-boosted formulas which aim to plump, protect and hydrate skin in one, these genius skincare mists do much more than refresh.
