FAQs
1. What is a probiotic face mist, and what does it do for the skin?
A probiotic face mist supports the skin’s microbiome the ecosystem of beneficial bacteria that helps keep skin balanced, resilient, and calm. Biome Active Essence uses probiotic and fermented bio-actives to help strengthen the skin barrier, improve hydration, and support overall skin health, especially when skin feels sensitive or compromised.

My winter skin saviour ❤️ This is better than a toner or any rose water. It coats your skin in freshness, and I feel like it makes my face cream feel lighter. No perfume = winner!!
Sasha –
Love this so much! I was resisting purchasing a pre-skincare, I love simple routine. But once I started using it I can defiantly not go back! I use this religiously after my face wash and it sets the face for serum and follow on cream. It’s free from alcohol and perfumes so no burning for my sensitive skin. My skin seems defiantly plumper and more hydrated.
Maya –
Excellent product. It smells so good and refreshing without perfumes! A true burst of hydration 🙂
Rose –
I’m obsessed! Refreshing and soft on the skin. If you’re a bit tired, or just need a little boost, Spritz away!
KJB –
I purchased this in a whim, not believing that face mists were a thing. Oh my goodness, I was so wrong. This product is an absolute gem. It adds a layer of extra hydration that nothing else can match. No strong fragrances, no weird residue. I spritz under serum and sometimes during the day and it perks my skin up. The bottle is really well designed too – you definitely get a fine mist and not a squirt! So glad I found it.
Hayley –
Love, love, love! It’s so refreshing and hydrating! Total skin saviour during the recent heat. Also, I love that it’s perfume free. I’ve tried every face mist out there and they’re always loaded with perfume, which stings my skin and once it absorbs, I can never really tell if it did anything! This is next level. It smells like summer peaches, without any perfume or that slimy feeling you often get with other brands, that sticky coating. This just feels so natural, and my skin stays hydrated all day long.
Julia –
It really works! This is the best natural hydrating face mist I’ve ever used. A little goes a long way, and it delivers on all its promises. Also great over makeup.

Fallen in love with this! I love Vemel products. When my skin became very sensitive a few years ago, this range rescued me! Vemel products are so gentle and powerful. My skin has never looked better.
Luna –
Love this! I decided to give Vemel a go as I’m pregnant and trying to move into less toxic skincare. All the toners or face mists I could find are loaded with perfumes so it’s a no-go for me! Smells so fresh, wakes up my skin in the mornings and feels hydrating. Generally my skin is glowing!
