What the gurus are saying
The fine mist and hydrating formula earn consistent praise for feeling more like a skincare step than a heavy setting spray, lending a bouncy glow rather than a matte or powdery layer. Those with oily skin appreciate that it grips makeup without over-moisturising, though the formula does separate slightly so a shake before application matters. For best results, some gurus press it gently into the skin with a sponge after application.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.
Urea both holds water in the skin and gently loosens dead surface cells. At higher strengths it has good evidence for very dry or thickened skin.

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
