Themes:
1. A shield for the epidermis against external aggressions.
When you venture outdoors, 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 the skin's defences, 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 usage of skincare mists during this time of the year. Indeed, primarily, mists serve to meet the skin's cooling and hydration needs. Mist treatments have been designed to effortlessly restore a glow to your skin, 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 Fixer and Skin Purifier.
Beyond their moisturising and refreshing properties, certain skincare mists work on the skin in a way that enhances its elasticity, softness, and thus its receptivity to makeup. Good skin hydration allows, among other things, better absorption of skincare creams and other makeups to bring out their effects. Therefore, the prior spraying of a botanical mist on the facial skin can help you brighten your beauty routine, in addition to allowing it to last throughout the day. Similarly, skincare mists, particularly those based on cellular water or hyaluronic acid, deeply purify the epidermis while also contributing to its hydration. Thanks to the active components distributed by these treatments, the skin gains in freshness and softness.
