If sunscreen is sitting high on your list of summer skincare staples you can't live without, face mist should probably come in second. Sometimes the sweltering heat just makes things worse for your sensitive skin, and there's no better way to hit refresh on your skin than with a handy face mist for a quick recharge on the go. From hydrating face mist to soothing face mist, scroll down to discover 10 amazing things a face mist can do in your Korean skincare routine and our best-in-class favorites that you shouldn't "mist"!

1. Refresh Your Skin

This is pretty much a no-brainer — face mist is the best quick fix to revive tired, stressed skin. Whether you need a midday refresh on a hot day or just a few spritzes to stay hydrated, make the Sioris Time is Running Out Mist your gym bag staple or desk-side essential.

This multitasking, hydrating face mist combines toner, mist, and serum with 78% organic green plum water for instant hydration, which makes it the best face mist for dry skin type. The oil-rich skincare formula (with macadamia, jojoba, and sunflower oil) delivers long-lasting nourishment to leave your summer skin refreshed and recharged all day.

2. Deliver Extra Moisture

One of the best skincare hacks we've learnt from James Welsh's night-time routine with Harper's Bazaar is that a thin coat of face mists in between each skincare step can actually help your skincare products go on the skin smoother and absorb better. So it's basically cleanser, face mist, toner, face mist, serum, face mist, moisturizer... You get the picture. SCINIC First Treatment Mist is the perfect multi-tasker as it works double duty for your skincare routine as a hydrating face mist and essence with 90% of Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate. Make this face mist your skin care staple if you’re always traveling in and out of an air-conditioned environment to stabilize your skin conditions.

3. Enhance Your Makeup

Here is an MUA-approved makeup trick that is 100% fool-proof: lightly spray your makeup brushes or beauty sponges with your favorite face mist. This technique can enhance the pigments of your eyeshadow, blush, and even your contouring powder. Let Logically Skin Aquatide Multi-Purpose Toner Mist be your new little helper to amp up the vibrancy of your makeup look.

This soothing and hydrating face mist delivers ample moisture to the skin with a glow-boosting Aquatide compound to add extra shine to your skin's finish. Not to mention it is friendly to sensitive skin so those who are prone to irritation and sensitivity can use it without worry!

4. Soothe Irritation

Speaking of irritation and sensitive skin, a soothing face mist after a sweaty workout (especially for those who struggle with rosacea skin) can really help take down the redness and calm irritation. Say no to potential irritants like alcohol and fragrance, and instead look for anti-inflammatory and soothing ingredients like green tea, ceramide, and centella asiatica in your face.

5. Prevent Oily Shine

Whether you are a victim of enlarged pores and midday shine, or are simply on the hunt for the best face mist to keep your complexion looking equally dewy as it is shine-free, give the THE LAB by blanc doux Prebiotic Cera Cream Mist a go. Hailed as the best mult-functioning face mist, the ceramides and probiotics in this moisturizing face mist are a good addition as they help moisturize, revive dull skin, soothe sensitivity, boost absorption of other skincare products, and absorb excess oil while adding a soft glow to your complexion. You can also use it to prime your face before makeup too!

6. Give Your Makeup a Natural Dewy Finish

We get it — you're in a love-hate relationship with that mattifying makeup look of yours. You hate the dry, powdery texture but, since it's summer, you also don't want to risk a patch of oily shine on your forehead. That's why you need a superfine face mist like the LANEIGE Cream Skin Refiner Mist to layer on top of your makeup as a grand finish to make it more natural-looking. 80% of customers feel their makeup is more dewy after using this hydrating face mist, thanks to its clump-free, dryness-relieving formula.

7. Pamper Your Sun-Kissed Skin

Bring a face mist along for your beach date and reapply it at the same time with your sunscreen to refresh your sun-kissed skin. Our fan-favorite FRUDIA My Orchard Real Soothing Gel Mist is a popular #HotGirlSummer essential.
