Summer Skin: 10 Best Hydrating Facial Mists

by Catherine Piercy, Vogue

Turning up just in time for a scorching summer weekend, the new hydrating face mists are looking decidedly fresh. Once fueled merely by Swiss spring water and a dash of rose oil, today's most innovative formulas are skin-soothing, cell-energizing, humectant-spiked cocktails that offer high-tech treatment benefits-not to mention instant relief from the heat. Simply put, "they just feel good," says makeup artist Daniel Martin, who has already gone through several bottles of Tatcha's green tea, rice bran, and hyaluronic acid-infused spritz since discovering it earlier this summer. "I love layering them on before foundation to prep the skin. In some cases, it's hydrating enough that I don't even need a separate moisturizer," adds Martin, who also uses the mists afterward to set makeup in place. Keeping those multitasking properties in mind, Vogue has handpicked our favorite formulas of the season. Stashed in a Céline tote and misted liberally by the pool, they'll keep you looking cool, weather come what may.
