As one of the hardest-working, multi-tasking steps in any skin care regime, face mists are commonly underestimated. Hear us out… what other product can soothe stressed-out skin, dial up the dew, and offer an instant burst of hydration (anytime, anywhere)? Nope, we couldn’t think of anything either.  

Refreshing, reviving and rejuvenating your skin with a simple spritz, face mists are a must-have all year around — but will be your best friend come summertime. Combining a variety of vitamins and minerals, there’s a mist for every skin concern — whether you’re dealing with oiliness, dryness or unwanted blemishes. But, despite their targeting differences, the sprays have one vital thing in common — they level up hydration, quenching skin’s thirst, first. So, with that in mind, we suggest you keep one within arm’s length at all times! 

Get prepped for your next sun-seeking getaway or muggy commute with the best hydrating face mist for you. Keeping you cool, calm and your make up refreshed, Ryan from the Cult Concierge team has discovered the ten best face mists for all skin types. You can thank us later…
