Don’t listen to what your cynical ‘it’s just another unnecessary skin care step’ friend says; face mists are the absolute jam. Whether you’re looking to calm irritated skin, add a boost of hydration, or brighten a dull, dry complexion, a single spritz of a face mist has the ability to turn your skin around completely.

The best part? There’s now a whole new generation of face mists offering everything from antioxidants for pollution, aloe vera for soothing, probiotics to balance the skin, and salicylic acid to keep your cute face spot-free…you name it, they do it.

Even better, with these guys you can literally hit refresh anytime, anywhere – keep one on your desk, in your handbag, by your fridge, whatever works – because who doesn’t want glowy, plump, healthy-looking skin at a moment’s notice?

Here are some of our favourite supercharged facial mist formulas that do WAY more than simply refresh your skin.
