Why this worksAs the air gets drier with the change of season, a hydrating face mist can help replenish moisture levels. Ingredients like aloe vera and rosewater are known for their soothing properties and can easily be combined to create a refreshing blend that revitalises the skin.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Gather Your Ingredients You'll need distilled water, aloe vera gel, and a few drops of essential oil for scent. Make sure to use high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  2. Mix the Base In a clean spray bottle, combine 1 cup of distilled water with 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel. Shake well to mix until the aloe is fully dissolved.
  3. Add Essential Oils Add 3-5 drops of your chosen essential oil, such as lavender or tea tree, for added benefits and fragrance. Shake the bottle again to blend the oils.
  4. Store and Use Store your hydrating mist in the fridge for an extra refreshing boost. Spray it on your face throughout the day as needed for hydration.

Where people go wrong

People often skip patch testing essential oils, which can lead to irritation. Others may not shake the mixture well, resulting in uneven application. Also, using tap water instead of distilled can introduce impurities that affect your skin.

The pro moveFor added benefits, consider infusing your mist with herbal tea instead of plain water for a nutrient boost.
