Farmstay Hyaluronic Acid Multi Aqua Gel Mist

Most face mists are water-based sprays that evaporate quickly and offer only momentary freshness. This one has a gel texture that stays on the skin after spraying — it doesn't run or drip — and delivers five forms of hyaluronic acid that hydrate at different depths of the skin. The result is moisture that actually lasts, not just a temporary cool feeling.

This mist contains five distinct forms of hyaluronic acid: sodium hyaluronate (70ppm), sodium hyaluronate crosspolymer (20ppm), hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid (20ppm), hyaluronic acid (8ppm), and hydrolyzed sodium hyaluronate (2ppm). Each form has a different molecular weight, meaning they penetrate and work at different layers — from the skin's surface to its deeper layers. A single form only hydrates one depth. All five working together deliver more complete, longer-lasting moisture.

It works at two points in a routine. First, spray it on cleansed skin before your serum and moisturiser — the hyaluronic acid forms a hydration base that helps subsequent products absorb better. Second, use it throughout the day over makeup or between steps to refresh moisture without disturbing your routine. Shake the bottle before each use and spray from 20cm, then gently pat in.

It works well for oily and combination skin, specifically because the gel texture is lightweight and non-greasy — it adds moisture without the heaviness of a cream or the stickiness of a traditional essence. For oily skin types, it can replace a heavier toner step. The betaine and calcium lactate in the formula also help balance the skin's oil-moisture ratio rather than simply adding water.

Yes — the gel formula is specifically designed for this. Unlike water mists that can streak or lift foundation, the gel texture sets lightly on the surface without disturbing makeup underneath. Spray from 20cm, let it settle for a few seconds, and gently press in with clean fingertips if needed. It works particularly well in air-conditioned environments or during Georgian summer heat when skin loses moisture fast.

A toner is applied to a cotton pad or hands and pressed into skin — it stays only as long as you actively work it in. A gel mist delivers the same hydrating actives as a toner but suspends them in a gel matrix that adheres to the skin and releases moisture more gradually. It also works mid-routine and mid-day, which a toner applied by hand cannot. Think of it as a more flexible delivery format for the same hydration job.

The formula does list alcohol (ethanol) in the ingredient list. For most skin types this is not a concern at the concentration used — it functions as a solvent that helps the gel texture spray evenly and absorb without residue. However, if your skin is currently compromised, reactive to alcohol, or experiencing active eczema or rosacea, patch test first or choose a fragrance- and alcohol-free alternative. Sensitive skin that tolerates low-alcohol formulas generally does well with it.

No. Although it's a gel rather than a watery spray, it's formulated to absorb quickly and leave skin feeling fresh and comfortable rather than tacky. The gel sets lightly on the surface, which is what lets it sit under or over makeup without pilling or streaking. If you ever feel excess, a gentle press with clean fingertips settles it in.
