At the minute I am a bit of a desk warrior with my eyes glued to a keyboard for quite a few hours today and it can, if I let it, play havoc with my skin. One product I am absolutely loving right now is the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Miracle Hydrating Mist.
The Elizabeth Arden 'Eight Hour' range is iconic in the beauty biz. I've long been a fan of the eight hour cream, so when the Miracle Hydrating Mist arrived one cold & wet morning, I was instantly excited to try it out.
I had a read of the blurb on the product which claims the spray is 'an instantly invigorating facial spray that hydrates, soothes and refreshes skin'. I'm already impressed and the ingredients just confirm that I'm right to be.
This Eight Hour® Miracle Hydrating Mist contains:
- Superfruit Blend - A blend of acai, goji, mangosteen, noni, pomegranate and coffee seed extracts that collectively deliver antioxidant protection for a more healthy-looking skin.
- Aloe Juice - Provides soothing and moisturising benefits.
- Apple Leaf Extract - Soothes and comforts irritated skin, reducing the appearance of redness and blotchiness.
- Glycerin - A powerful humectant that draws moisture to the skin.
- Sodium PCA - A naturally occurring humectant that helps attract and bind moisture.
- Skin Identical Carbohydrate Complex - Helps to improve skin’s overall softness and smoothness.
- Uplifting in every way, the formula is delicately fragranced with a blend of Lemon Water, Rose and Bergamot for a light and energising aromatic experience.
The product is suitable for all skin types too which is great for times where my skin is more agitated than usual.
I have been using this a lot in the mornings where I really don't want to adult and am struggling to feel 'awake'. This is instantly refreshing and wakening so is the perfect start to the day. I've also been using it in the evenings when my foundation is starting to look a tad dull. I spritz this over the top of my foundation and blend it in with a foundation brush to give a nice dewy finish.
The product itself is light and airy when spritzed which thankfully doesn't leave my face overly 'wet'. I've been using this pretty much everyday and can already tell this will be getting 'hinted' to my husband for my birthday, anniversary, Christmas and 'National my wife is a beauty addict' day. If only such a day existed!
Packaged in a portable, airline approved travel size, this ultra‑fine face mist is perfect for on-the-go use. At £21 for 100ml this is an amazing product and you can find it available online and instore from stores such as Boots.
Have you been giving this a try? I'd be interested to see if you prefer it to the eight hour cream.
