Absolute New York Soothing Antioxidant Face Mist for Hydrated, Refreshed Skin
A face mist earns its place in a routine by being reached for, which usually means it lives on a desk rather than in a bathroom cabinet. This one from Absolute New York is built as a mid-afternoon reset: a fine spray of hydration with antioxidants along for the ride.
Soothing botanicals and protective vitamins carry the formula. The feel is light and it settles quickly rather than sitting wet on the face, so it works over makeup as well as under it, and a light mist after applying makeup takes the powdery edge off.
Antioxidants are the part doing the quiet work. Skin picks up a fair amount of wear from pollution and sunlight over the course of an ordinary day, and a mist with vitamins in it is a low-effort way of putting something back at the exact point in the afternoon when you would otherwise do nothing at all.
Suitable for all skin types, including skin that tends to react to things. Hold it a comfortable distance from the face, close your eyes, and let it settle instead of rubbing it in.

Application tips
Three ways to use it. Over bare skin after cleansing, as the damp layer a serum goes onto. Over finished makeup, to knock back a powdery look. Or during the day, whenever skin starts to feel tight. Close your eyes, mist from a distance, and press the excess in with clean fingertips instead of wiping it away.
Results
Skin feels calmer and less parched within a few seconds, and looks less flat for it. On a face that has been in wind, air conditioning or a heated office, the tight feeling eases off.
Makeup benefits too. A base that had gone lifeless picks up some light again, and powder stops looking dusty across the cheeks.
