Now there are so many newfangled words in the field of cosmetics that not every girl is able to navigate them accurately. And, as a rule, all these fashionable definitions mask well-known skin care products. Here, for example, a body mist - what is it? What's behind the buzzword?
What is a body mist?
Let's start with the fact that the mist belongs to the category of care products. The word is English, and is translated as "haze", "fog". But in fact, this is an ordinary body spray, which, when sprayed while still in the air, forms a barely noticeable veil, which subsequently settles on the skin.
These sprays should not be confused with aerosol deodorants. Their purpose is more than just flavoring.
Purpose of funds
What is a body mist, we found out, but what is its purpose? Its function will depend on the composition, which we will consider a little later. And the functions can be the following:
- remove inflammation and redness on the body;
- giving skin freshness, especially in summerperiod;
- preparation with hyaluronic acid gives the skin of the body elasticity;
- moisturizing the skin, removing tightness and dryness;
- Mattifying the surface of the skin with excessive oily sheen.
What is included in the set of funds?
The function of the mist is determined by its composition. Most products contain the following components:
- Many manufacturers add hyaluronic acid to body mists. And this, as you know, is a beauty component that gives the skin elasticity, freshness, firmness, and also stimulates the production of a natural analogue.
- Mineral or thermal water is a frequent base of body mist, which justifies its liquid moisturizing consistency. Thermal liquid has a lower density, easily penetrates into the deepest layers of the skin of the body and perfectly moisturizes. Mineral water is more nourishing than moisturizing.
- Vitamin body mist is filled with a whole complex of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, macro- and microelements. This type of mist is designed to fully nourish the skin.
- Essential and vegetable oils, herbal extracts and extracts. With this composition, mists are very valuable because they nourish, moisturize, regenerate skin cells, and also relieve inflammation.
- Aromatic components are essential components of body sprays. They leave a pleasant aroma on it. But the main thing is that they are of natural origin: from essential oils, for example.
- Glycerin protects the skin by forming a protective film on its surface.
How to use the mist?
Well, what can be difficult in spraying a mist from a bottle on the body? And the truth is, nothing. But still, let's clarify a few application rules:
- Keep the mist at a distance of 15-20 cm from the skin. Press the dispenser and start spraying, moving the bottle along the entire body.
- Second option: spray the mist in the air and, as it were, enter the "cloud". This will ensure that the spray will cover the skin evenly.
There is no time frame in applying the mist. This can be done in the morning after a shower to tone the skin of the body, and in the evening after a shower for a quick relaxation, and during the day - to give freshness to the skin.
