When it comes to looking refreshed, keep a on-the-go hydrating mist handy at all times to instantly cool, calm and protect skin. And there are so many uses: Mist your face to re-hydrate and freshen your makeup, hydrate your hair and scalp, or as a toner that hydrates your skin.
This face mists are health, acne fighting (if you add witch hazel) refreshing, and even mood boosting—it will seriously make your skin glow.
Aloe and cucumber are the star players here. Cucumber is naturally high in water, as well as vitamins and minerals. Aloe Vera a super soother, which has an impressive ability to ease irritation, redness, and inflammation.
