1. A shield for the epidermis against external aggressions.
When you go outside, your facial skin is exposed to UV rays and pollution. There are numerous and varied creams and skincare gels available to help protect the skin against these harmful agents, each tailored to different skin types. Appreciated for their ease of application, the care mists, in addition to instantly refreshing the skin, act as a shield on the epidermis thanks to their active ingredients. Depending on the type of care, mists come in different varieties. To combat external aggressions and potential skin irritations, the thermal mists, with a single spray on the face, cover the skin with a thin layer loaded with trace elements, silica, and magnesium, designed to strengthen skin defenses, while at the same time providing a pleasant feeling of freshness.

2. For fresh and hydrated skin at any time of the day.
A healthy skin is a properly hydrated skin. The skin's water needs are significant in summer, hence the high use of skincare mists during this time of the year. Indeed, first and foremost, mists are designed to meet the skin's cooling and hydration needs. Mist treatments have been developed to easily give your skin a boost, wherever you are and at any time of the day. Their use helps to keep the skin slightly moist and constantly hydrated, thus preventing the risks of irritation, redness, and dryness.
3. Makeup Fixative and Skin Purifier.
Beyond their moisturizing and refreshing properties, certain facial mists work on the skin in a way that enhances its elasticity, softness, and thus, its receptivity to makeup. Proper skin hydration allows, among other things, better absorption of skincare creams and other makeup to bring out their effects. Therefore, the preliminary spraying of a botanical mist on the facial skin can help you brighten your beauty routine, in addition to ensuring its longevity throughout the day. Similarly, facial mists, especially those based on cellular water or hyaluronic acid, deeply purify the epidermis while contributing to its hydration. Thanks to the active components distributed by these treatments, the skin gains in freshness and softness.
