I used to feel about facial mists the way that realists feel about Valentine s Day a shameless commercial opportunity. But, I tried the rosewater and aloe facial sprays from Mario Badescu at the recommendation of my coworkers, and I m an enthusiastic convert. I have combination skin that skews dry and can be acne-prone, and facial mists have become my key to achieving dewy, Glossier-level hydration without looking greasy or clogging pores. I spritz it onto my face and neck every few hours. Constantly reapplying moisturizer throughout the day is more involved, and I prefer the lit-from-within glow I get with mists over the sheen that moisturizers can impart. (To be clear, I use moisturizers at night and in the morning). Lastly, while it may seem silly, a rosewater spritz has become a nice calming ritual in an anxious nine months.
