by Namisha Singh Beauty Blogger

A face mist or facial mist is a trendy desk essential these days and there is a lot more to it than just hydrating and scenting your face. Did you know you can also use it to set your makeup and that it is good for your natural skin care routine? Not just this, there are many more perks of keeping a face mist in your bag, especially an all-natural one.

Here is what you can get out of the best facial mists.

Smooth make-up setting

Spray your face mist between two layers of makeup. It will help the makeup to settle evenly and better, giving you that aesthetic dewy look! You can even spray it on your makeup blender or sponge to smooth out those annoying patches.

If you are not a makeup person, you can bring those less-opened makeup essentials back to life. Spray a little mist on your dried compact or eye shadow kit and see for yourself. In such cases, always check the expiry date of your makeup to keep up with your basic natural skin care. Even the just-expired products can be harmful to your skin.

Perks of a floral facial mist

Staying in closed spaces or under the sun for long hours can dehydrate and tire your skin easily. Save your time and use a face mist, instead of the washroom trip. And if you spend all those hours with your makeup on, your face needs to breathe in the fresh air and take in natural nutrients from time to time. To keep in check your natural face care, turn to those facial mists that are made only with clear water and fresh flowers. The waters of some exotic fresh flowers have so much nutrition that helps the skin to retain more moisture, stay toned, fight hourly skin fatigue. Moreover, flowers like Jasmine and Lavender have powerful anti-bacterial and anti-aging properties. Be ready to go on a soothing and beautiful sensory trip with enchanting natural aromas.

If you see any kind of alcohol listed on your face mist, STOP USING THAT IMMEDIATELY. The basic use of a facial mist is to hydrate and refresh your face, but Alcohol is the total opposite of that. It is quite drying and does not include any kinds of skin benefits. The same goes for mists that are solely based on synthetic fragrance. Pure floral mists and plant-based mists are one of the best natural skincare formulas.

Mix it with your SPF lotion or cream

Spraying your face mist just before applying your SPF product, will help lock all the moisture inside your skin.

A facial mist is actually a very impressive go-to product that skips those washroom trips. And if it is filled with all the goodies, that's a huge bonus for your natural face care routine.
