Apto Skincare Turmeric Mist with Witch Hazel

Present! Sticking with what I said yesterday, I'm here for a postie post. In between re-watching Game of Thrones. I have decided I am going to watch the entire series again. I've tried before and usually only watch the first season before I lost interest. It's just I keep thinking of the ending and asking myself if I really want to go through it again. But I made it through True Blood so I can make it through GOT.  I'm actually on season 2...so progress. And I have just fallen back in love with the dialogue (the later seasons the dialogue was straight trash with a few exceptions), the characters- kinda. On this rewatch I just am side eyeing the Starks. I love the Starks. They are my favorite- with a few exceptions.  But the decisions and choices they make sometimes make me scratch my head in wonder. Also on this watch through I am questioning how I began to root for some of the characters I hated given how deplorable they were (Jamie, Theon). And I also wonder how I ever liked Daenerys. I liked her in season one until I read the books- then she became insufferable . Anyway, I could go on and on so I'll stop and we shall talk facial sprays. 

Apto Skincare claims:

When I think Turmeric, I think of Ayurvedic Skincare. I didn't even read the description and I see that I was right now that I have read it. Back in the day I used to do a mask with turmeric, clay, yogurt, honey...and I loved it. Brighter, smoother skin. I need to bring that back.  

Anyway, I bought this in between an order for another skincare product I bought that was on my list to try so I ordered this to use until that came in. But this was on my list to try for a while to. 

We will talk packaging. I've tried a lot of skincare mists- most come in plastic bottles. Tried one in glass. This is the first one to come in metal. And I'm loving it! The bottle is 100% recyclable aluminum. Which I is better for the earth-especially when using already recycled aluminum although I don't know if this is.  It doesn't leach microplastics and can be endlessly recycled. I love to see it! I believe even the sprayer is mostly aluminum with a little plastic. 

You get 8 oz of product. It works as any other mist although I believe the sprayer could be more fine. I was  most curious about the scent- I love turmeric but I don't want to smell like it. Luckily this just smells like rose water. It's really lovely to use. I keep mine in the fridge so it's extra refreshing. I like to use it 1-2 times a day. 

It is pretty hydrating. And a bit sticky. I don't really notice unless I touch my face though. Makes a nice base for makeup. 

Makes my skin look healthy, adds a touch of hydration, and just overall feels like a treat. You can use it to set make up but I didn't use it that way. I want all those good ingredients to go directly on my skin, not on makeup.

And it has great ingredients! The second ingredient is turmeric root extract. We have banana extract, oat extract, calendula, rose water, witch hazel,  and on and on! 

Ingredients:


Now my favorite thing- the price! I think this is one of the most affordable mists....you get 4 oz for $6.00. It's comparable to a Lush mist (Breath of Fresh Air, Tea Tree Water,  and Eau Roma Water)  but you get a better price. This works out to $1.50 an ounce while Lush ends up being around $4.24 an ounce. If you like a toner water- I say it's worth a try!
