Review: The Body Shop Vitamin E Face Mist

As a Caudalie Beauty Elixir lover, other face mists are automatically looked down upon, as the elixir – wait for it – is my Holy Grail mist.

When I bought The Body Shop Vitamin E Face Mist, my face was really sensitive as I was just getting over a horrible rash and wanted something to help get rid of the tightness in my skin. I used it twice, hated it and locked it away in a cupboard – promptly forgetting about it. I even left a comment on Maliberry Makeup after Mail reviewed it, confessing my regret at buying it.

Right now I’m going through a bad-skin phase and the tightness in my skin has been unbelievable. It’s horrible, and almost feels as if my face will rip if I dare to crack a smile! So when I found the mist in the back of my cupboard I decided that maybe I should give it another go.

Whilst I’m not too keen on the rosewater scent, the mist itself is great. It really calms down my skin and gets rid of the dreaded tightness across my cheeks. I only apply it as and when I need it, as I’m worried that it may be a little to rich for consistent use. Although recently I’ve been using it almost daily and haven’t noticed any adverse effects.

Caudalie still has my heart, but the Vitamin E mist is working its way there.

The Body Shop Vitamin E Face Mist is available from the The Body Shop – instore and online, priced at £7/100ml.
