My apartment’s humidity hit 19% last week. My skin felt like a neglected leather jacket — tight, flaky, screaming for literally anything.
This mist is the difference between face-cracking winter and actually having a complexion. It’s the first thing I reach for before my moisturizer, and the last thing I spray before bed.
It’s a milky, oil-based mist from Korean brand Sioris. $28 for 100ml. The claim that got me: “7-layer skin barrier” — I rolled my eyes, but my winter skin was desperate.
Oil-on-top formula
Shake it hard. The plum oil layer sits above the watery base until you mix them — it’s like a salad dressing for your face.
Fine mister
The spray is stupidly fine. Like walking through a fog machine, not getting squirted by a water gun.
Layerable
I’ve stacked four layers under moisturizer and it still absorbs in under a minute. No greasy film, just plump.

No essential oils, no fragrance, no alcohol. Just fermented ingredients doing heavy lifting. It’s basically a drinkable juice for your face — if juice had a skincare PhD.
- Yuzu extract: Brightens dull winter skin without stinging
- Houttuynia cordata: Calms redness from indoor heat blasts
- Plum oil: Seals in moisture without clogging pores
- Sodium hyaluronate: Pulls water into the skin instead of sitting on top

It comes out warm-ish and milky. Sinks in like a dream — 10 seconds and my skin feels bouncy, not wet. The smell is faintly fruity, like a whisper of plum, then gone.
By week three, my foundation stopped catching on dry patches around my nose. But fair warning: if you over-spray without moisturizer on top, you’ll feel tight again in an hour. It’s a team player, not a lone wolf.

My flaky chin is gone. My makeup sits better by 40%. But I still need a heavier cream at night — this mist isn’t magic, it’s a support system.

It’s the hydration hack I didn’t know I needed — layered, patient, and shockingly effective for the price.
