Early verdict · Few reviews so far

What the gurus are saying

This spray's excessive fragrance load makes it fundamentally problematic: overpowering on application, sticky on skin, and failing to deliver real hydration. Experts see it as more flavored water than functional skincare, since the fragrance completely overwhelms the nice base ingredients like aloe and green tea. Sticky residue and zero actual moisturization mean this product doesn't earn its place in any skincare routine.

"The Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Cucumber and Green Tea, pass, pass, pass. I was already iffy with Mario Badescu, even though they do have some good formulas, but that spray is the devil's cologne, I swear. It is way too fragranced, gets sticky on your skin, it doesn't even moisturize the skin really well, and I will never understand why it's so popular, so pass."

"I always call this flavored water because that's what they are. It's like Mario Badescu's home fragrances because you have some okay ingredients, like some nice ingredients, but then you have [...] parfum fragrance, but then we have hexyl cinnamal, linalool, and then some colorings which is fine, but these are the [...] fragrant ingredients that they have to list separately because they are known irritants. I just don't see the point."
