What people love

  • Fine mist texture that's refreshing on inflamed, reactive skin
  • Helpful to spray on damp skin to boost product absorption and ease irritation
  • Can be stored in the fridge for a cooling, soothing effect during hot or flaring skin episodes

Watch out for

  • Effects mostly subjective; doesn't resolve underlying dryness or barrier issues
  • Can leave skin feeling tight or dry if overused or used alone without moisturizer
  • Some report minimal impact beyond the comforting mist sensation, making it feel like an overpriced water spray

I also use the la Roche posay thermal spring water spray first before any skin care helps a lot too

i wonder if using the bioessence biowater (avene is unfortunately a bit out of my price range lol) would achieve the same results

I did the routine I mentioned in my first post, adding in CosRx snail mucin and Avene thermal water spray and red light therapy.

Positive

Thank you! I think the steroids and the cicalfate were the MVPs, but everything helped a little bit.

Positive

Snail mucin, red light, and Avene spray were smart additions...
