Not holy grail, but really good
This is not a super-hydrating mist, but it is really nice, and the probiotic ingredients are great. If you need extra hydration, I'd recommend either spraying it into your hands and patting it into your face/neck several times over (like 7 Skins) or spraying once between each layer of skincare product.
What can I say… It’s that good. Very Refreshing, light, no real fragrance, No sensitivities. I have very sensitive skin, Dry, mature skin (55) And this was Great purchase. I wouldn’t mind going back to it, I just want to see if there’s something else out there I like as well. Otherwise, it will definitely be a re-purchase.
