Neal's Yard Frankincense Hydrating Facial Mist - £10.50Cleanse, Tone, Moisturise Wtf is a toner?! Seriously. I have never understood the point of them. Every one I've tried have just felt like I was spreading flowery water over my face with a cotton pad. Despite that, I have no hesitation in saying that you need a facial mist in your life. In particular, this one from Neal's Yard.
For me, a facial mist is like a toner, but better. Because it sprays straight onto your skin, you're not wasting any product on cotton pads, nor even using cotton pads which are probably bad for the environment.
Lots of high end facial mists have been reviewed on beauty blogs recently, and many have been written off as a waste of money. This however, is much more than fancy water. I just love it, I swear by it, and will carry on re-purchasing it despite it being £10.50.
Firstly, it just smells amazing. If you don't know what Frankincense smells like; it's quite rich, it smells like garden herbs with a touch of menthol. It is a little bit masculine, but not so much that it smells like cologne. I think it's lovely and refreshing. It's au-naturel and 98% organic. It contains no mineral oils, no synthetic fragrances or colourings, parabens, silicones or any other nasties that can lurk in cosmetics. It actually does something. I use this after cleansing and moisturising. It gets rid of any excess oil on my skin and makes it feel really hydrated and 'plump'. If I'm using a more mattifying foundation, I can spray this over the top to make it a little more dewy. It just makes my skin feel amazing. There really is a noticeable difference in the tone of my skin when I use this. I think it's fantastic. It says on the bottle that it "supports natural cellular regeneration" - which could be a fancy way of saying it does nothing, or fingers crossed it's preventing wrinkles occurring. The bottle is also really really pretty. The glass is a rich royal blue, and is quite weighty which makes the product feel quite high-end and expensive. I'm a sucker for pretty packaging and I just love the matching lavender stamp and labelling. I know it's quite expensive for so sketchy a product, especially if you haven't tried facial mists before - but I would sing it's praises to kingdom come if I wasn't scared of boring you to death. So, because I want you guys to try it so much, I'm giving a bottle away!a Rafflecopter giveaway
