Moisture Test:
Before spraying the mist, the skin moisture level measured 32.6%.
Not really hydrated... ><"
I sprayed the mist on my arm and waited for about 5 minutes until it gets fully absorbed into the skin.
After the mist got fully absorbed into the skin, I took the measurement and it measured 54.1%. HYDRATED~
However..., 10 minutes later, I took the measurement again... The moisture level dropped to 40.7%.
Another 10 minutes later, I measured it again... the moisture level dropped to 35.7%... -_-
Verdict?: It claims to "keep the skin clean, MOIST and smooth ALL DAY LONG". Apparently, it does not really moisturizes well... From the Moisture Test, it makes me think that the moisture kind of evaporated into the thin air instead of locking into the skin... The moisture definitely does not lasts "all day long" as it claimed. (-_-") It does not dry up the skin either.
As for oil-controlling..., I don't think it does controls oil because when I used oil blotting sheet to blot my face in the mid-day, the area of blotting sheet being covered by oil remains the same. lol.
Anyway, I use this everyday on the last step of my skin care routine before putting makeup. It gives a really cooling and refreshing sensation. It's also great to use after makeup application to help set the makeup or when makeup has begun to wilt during the mid-day.
After using this for more than a month, I don't think it helps to heal pimples because I didn't see my pimples shrinking it's size after using this. However, I do notice that the pimples were less red after using so I concluded that it helps to soothe pimples. (ps, Acne Spot Treatment is still the best acne medication for pimples outbreak.)
All in all, I like it because it's for 'troubled skin' — it contains acne-fighting ingredients which helps to soothe pimples and prevents future breakouts without drying the skin. Well, I live in hot and humid country(Singapore) so I use it whenever I simply want a little spritz of something cool and refreshing. It's kind of relaxing~~ :)
This is a soothing mist so if you are looking for a moisturizing facial mist, this is not for you.
