St. Ives Hydrating Face Mist Grapefruit short review

St. Ives Grapefruit hydrating facial mist

(I wrote this a few months back and forgot to post it! Apologies in advance... Hope you can still find it and use it during your dry cold heater months!)

Hello, hot weather, and AC dry skin! This is the perfect formula for skin discomfort.

I notice that every year around this time, I go hunting for facial mists, and to my disappointment, the mists I used to love always seem to be discontinued. So, I’m always on the hunt. This year, I found one from St. Ives and chose their Grapefruit scent—partly because it smells good and partly because grapefruit-scented facial products are rare.

The formula is paraben-free, dermatologist-tested, and not tested on animals, which I really appreciate. It contains 100% natural grapefruit extract, and each spray dispenses a generous amount—usually just 2–3 sprays are enough to cover and hydrate my face thoroughly.

A spritz of this facial mist contains an infusion of grapefruit, peach, and orange. Although the formula is nothing fancy, it is more than adequate for what I want it to do: moisturize and add hydration to my skin. I also really love the scent—it feels refreshing and cheerful.

First Impressions:

• Light and airy
• Hydrates well
• Leaves skin feeling smooth
• Scent lingers for about 10 minutes

Summary & Thoughts:
This facial mist works well for all skin types, but it’s especially useful when your skin feels a bit dehydrated throughout the day. There aren’t many comparable products on the market, but this one delivers impressive results: my skin feels very smooth, hydrated, and the effects are surprisingly long-lasting for a spray. I am extremely glad I bought it and hope it will still be available when I finish this bottle!

Conclusion:
Overall, I’d recommend this mist if you’re looking for a simple, affordable, and effective way to refresh and hydrate your skin. It’s lightweight, gentle, and cheerful, perfect for daily use, especially in hot weather or when indoor heating dries out your skin. While it’s not revolutionary, it does exactly what it promises—and sometimes, that’s all you need.
