This cult-favourite biphasic spray serum delivers an instant burst of hydration and a luxurious, dewy glow. Formulated to be lightweight enough for Mauritius' humidity, its oil-serum layers combine to nourish, brighten, and plump the skin, making it an ideal first step after cleansing or a refreshing mist throughout the day.

If your skin often feels tight, dull, or dehydrated from the sun and air-conditioning, this spray serum offers immediate relief. It's a multi-use product that acts as a toner, serum, and setting spray in one, perfect for creating a "glass skin" finish.

• Texture: Fine, bi-phase mist (shake to mix oil and water layers).
• Finish: Dewy, radiant, and glowing.
• Best for: Normal, Dry, Combination, and Mature skin types.
• Scent: Signature Aromatic Citrus Floral.

1. Cleanser: Start with a clean base.
2. THIS PRODUCT (d'Alba Spray Serum): Shake well. Hold 10-20cm away, close your eyes, and spritz 4-5 times over your face. Gently pat to absorb.
3. Sunscreen (AM) / Moisturiser (PM): Seal in the hydration and protect your skin.

Note: Already own a similar hydrating toner or essence? Finish that first (substitute, don’t stack).

Minimalist (3 steps):

1. Cleanser
2. d'Alba Spray Serum (acts as your toner and hydrating serum)
3. Sunscreen SPF 30+

Optional:

• Moisturiser: Only if your skin feels tight or your SPF isn't hydrating enough.
• Before/After Makeup: Use before foundation for a glowing base, or as a setting spray for a dewy finish.

Wait times: Wait about 30-60 seconds after spraying before applying sunscreen or makeup.

Minimalist (3 steps):

1. Cleanser (Double-cleanse if you wore makeup or water-resistant SPF: Oil Cleanse → Foam/Gel Cleanse)
2. d'Alba Spray Serum
3. Moisturiser (to lock in hydration overnight)

Optional:

• Targeted Serum: If you use a separate active serum (like a retinoid), apply it after the d'Alba spray and before your moisturiser.

Texture rule: Thinnest to thickest. This spray serum is a watery first step.

Daily Use — AM/PM & Throughout the Day:

• Amount: 4-5 spritzes for the entire face.
• Apply to: Face and neck.
• Method:
  1. Shake the bottle well 3-5 times to mix the oil and serum layers.
  2. Hold 10-20cm away from your face and close your eyes.
  3. Spray evenly across the face.
  4. Gently pat into the skin to aid absorption.
• Frequency: Use daily, AM and PM, after cleansing. It can also be used throughout the day to refresh skin or makeup.

If-This / Then-That:

• Very oily T-zone? Focus the spray more on the drier U-zone (cheeks and jawline) and use less on the forehead and nose.
• Very dry/AC? Use it between your skincare steps. For example: Cleanse → Spray → Hydrating Serum → Spray again → Moisturiser.
• Sensitive/reactive? The formula contains fragrance. Always patch test first behind the ear or on your jawline.
• Under makeup? Spray onto your makeup sponge or puff before tapping in foundation for a seamless, glowing finish.

Watchouts: A heavy application might feel greasy on very oily skin types. The fragrance can be a point of sensitivity for some users.

Safety: Avoid inhalation; spray into palms then apply to face if you have respiratory sensitivities. Avoid broken or irritated skin. Stop use if a rash or irritation occurs.

This spray serum is a gentle, hydrating product suitable for daily use.

• Daily: Use AM and PM after cleansing as your primary toner/essence step.
• With Actives: It can be used in the same routine as exfoliants (AHA/BHA) and retinoids. Apply this spray serum first to hydrate and buffer the skin before applying stronger actives.

AM/PM cheat-sheet:

• Niacinamide: AM/PM (This product contains Niacinamide)
• AHA/BHA/PHA: PM 1–3×/week (Use this spray before)
• Retinal/Retinol: PM 2–4×/week (Use this spray before)

Mauritius note: On hot, humid days, this spray followed by sunscreen might be enough hydration for your morning routine, especially for oily to combination skin.

• Immediate: Skin feels instantly hydrated, refreshed, and appears dewy and glowing. Fine lines due to dehydration are temporarily plumped.
• 2–4 weeks: With consistent use, skin's overall hydration level improves, feeling less tight and dry. Skin texture may appear smoother. The brand's clinical data suggests improvement in deep moisture and dead skin cells after a single use.
• 4–8+ weeks: Continued use of Niacinamide and Adenosine can contribute to a more even skin tone, improved elasticity, and a reduction in the appearance of fine lines.

• Why use a bi-phase serum mist, not just a water mist? Simple water mists can sometimes lead to more dryness as the water evaporates from your skin (transepidermal water loss). This d'Alba spray is biphasic, meaning it has an oil layer (with Avocado and Sunflower Seed oils) that creates a light barrier to lock in the hydration from its water-based serum layer. This provides lasting moisture instead of a temporary cooling effect.

• Works Well With: Hyaluronic Acid, Peptides, Niacinamide (included), Adenosine (included), Retinoids, and gentle exfoliants (AHAs, BHAs). It's an excellent hydrating first step to buffer stronger actives.
• Use Carefully With: Very heavy, occlusive creams if you are acne-prone. As the spray contains oils, layering multiple heavy oil-based products might feel greasy for some skin types.
• Avoid On: Do not spray directly into open eyes.

• Excellent for: Dry, Dehydrated, Dull, and Mature skin types that need a constant boost of moisture and radiance.
• Good for: Normal and Combination skin, especially as a toner-serum hybrid or for a dewy makeup finish.
• Use with Caution: Very Oily and Acne-Prone skin. While the product is non-comedogenic, some users with oily skin find it a bit heavy or greasy. The fragrance may also be a trigger for highly sensitive or reactive skin. A patch test is strongly advised.

• Dehydration and Dryness

• EU Allergens Declared: The INCI list includes Linalool, Hexyl Cinnamal, Limonene, and Citronellol, which are potential fragrance allergens.

Due to the presence of fragrance and multiple botanical extracts, a patch test is highly recommended for sensitive or allergy-prone skin.

• Who should use with caution: Individuals with very oily, acne-prone, or highly fragrance-sensitive skin.
• Patch Test Protocol:
  1. Shake well and spray a small amount onto a clean patch of skin on your jawline or behind the ear.
  2. Wait 24 hours to observe for any signs of redness, itching, or irritation.
  3. If no reaction occurs, the product is likely safe for you to use.
  4. If irritation develops, discontinue use.
• Teens: Suitable for teens looking for hydration, but the core routine of cleanser-moisturiser-SPF should be established first. Avoid if skin is highly reactive.

• Texture: A very fine, watery mist. It is biphasic, meaning the oil and water layers must be shaken to emulsify before spraying.
• Finish: Leaves a distinct dewy, radiant, "glass skin" glow on the skin without feeling heavy or sticky for most users.
• Scent: Has a noticeable, elegant floral and citrus fragrance.
• pH: Not publicly disclosed by the brand.
• FA/Comedogenicity: Contains some ingredients like Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil and certain emollients that could be a concern for those with Malassezia folliculitis ("fungal acne"). It is officially stated as non-comedogenic. Individual responses vary.

• Issue: Feels too greasy or oily.
  Quick Fix: You might be using too much or not shaking it well enough. Try reducing to 2-3 spritzes and focus on drier areas. Alternatively, spray it into your hands first and then gently press it onto your face to control the amount.
• Issue: Makeup is pilling or separating.
  Quick Fix: Wait a full minute for the serum to absorb before applying foundation. You can also try spraying it onto your makeup sponge instead of directly on your face, then dabbing to blend.
• Issue: The scent is too strong.
  Quick Fix: Spray the product into your palms away from your face and then pat it onto your skin. This reduces the amount of fragrance you inhale.

• Humid Summer: Perfect as a lightweight, all-in-one toner and serum step. For oily skin types, this spray followed by a non-greasy sunscreen might be sufficient for daytime hydration, eliminating the need for a separate moisturiser.
• Drier Winter/Indoors (AC): Excellent for combating the dehydrating effects of air conditioning. Keep it on your desk for a quick spritz to refresh your skin and prevent moisture loss throughout the day. You can also layer it between your other skincare steps for an extra hydration boost.

1. Can I use this if I have oily or acne-prone skin?
While the brand states it is non-comedogenic, it contains several oils and has a dewy finish. If you have very oily or acne-prone skin, we recommend patch testing first. Some users with this skin type love it, while others find it a bit too heavy.

2. Is the fragrance strong?
The product has a distinct floral-citrus scent that is a key part of its "luxurious" experience. If you are sensitive to fragrance, this may not be the best choice for you. Many user reviews mention the scent as a polarizing feature.

3. Do I still need a moisturiser if I use this?
It depends on your skin type. For oily or combination skin, especially in Mauritius' summer, this spray serum followed by sunscreen might be enough hydration for the daytime. For dry skin, you will likely need to follow up with a cream to properly seal in the moisture.

4. Can this replace my toner and my serum?
Yes, for many people, this can serve as both a hydrating toner and a nourishing serum, making it a great product for simplifying your routine ("skip-care").

Best For: Those with dry, normal, or combination skin looking for an instant and lasting dewy glow, deep hydration, and a multi-purpose product that simplifies their routine.
