I know everyone thinks theirs is the best. But seriously! This one really is THE best makeup setting spray! Not only because it works so well but also because of the ingredients used.
Why It’s The Best
Setting spray was also one of those makeup products I thought I didn’t really need. But once I used the Set & Refresh Facial Mist from Lemongrass Spa Products, I can’t believe I ever did without it! After spraying the mist on my finished makeup look, my skin feels refreshed and I feel like it really extends the wear of my makeup.
But this product does double duty! It has a powerhouse ingredient called Neroli Oil (citrus amara flower oil) that stimulates skin cells to regenerate which means it works really well on scars and stretch marks. It also has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiseptic and pain-relieving properties. Seems like there isn’t anything this mist can’t do! Use it midday, with or without makeup already on, for a refreshing boost!

Let’s Talk Ingredients
Ingredients: aqua (water), camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf extract, glycerin (plant-derived), salix nigra (black willow) bark extract, citrus amara (neroli) flower oil, simmondsia chinensis (jojoba), oil, euterpe oleracea* (acai) extract, citrus grandis (grapefruit) seed extract *organic
That’s a lot to talk about! I’m going to end up sounding like an encyclopedia but knowledge is power and it’s good for us to know what we’re actually putting on our faces. In fact, knowing exactly what is in the products I’m using actually makes me more excited to use them regularly!
Since I highlighted Neroli Oil earlier in this article and I’ve highlighted Jojoba Oil in my article on the Ultra Hydrating Body Creme, I’ll stick to the following extracts: green tea, black willow bark and acai.
The Extracts
Green tea extract makes red, angry skin happy! There are many ways that green tea helps your skin. You might already know that antioxidants fight free radicals which can cause cellular damage. What you might not know is that green tea is very high in antioxidants. A perfect ingredient for face care products! Specifically, an antioxidant called EGCG helps fight signs of aging by protecting and repairing cells. The anti-inflammatory properties of green tea help psoriasis and rosacea. It is also effective against acne because of it’s antimicrobial benefits. That’s a bunch of anti- words to keep track of!
The Black Willow Bark is another ingredient that soothes irritated skin. According to Day Spa Magazine, it has keratolytic properties (which means the softening and shedding of the outer layer of skin), so it breaks down dead skin cells and exfoliates. Willow bark is also pore minimizing which might be my favorite part!
StyleCraze talks extensively about the many benefits of acai berries taken both internally and applied topically. The second half of the article zeroes in on the skin benefits. Between slow down the effects of aging, helping heal acne and lightening scars, I’m excited to have access to this ingredient!
