My experience:

FRUDIA Pomegranate Nutri-Moisturizing Cream In Mist is a unique concept product from FRUDIA that mixes the rich nutritious cream-like substance with the toning solution. Overall, this product enables my skin to breathe despite the various amount of oils added to the mix. The Cream In Mist comes in a paper box but thanks to a faulty cap mine leaked inside the box. Hence no image of the box.

Pomegranate Nutri-Moisturizing Cream In Mist has 2 layers to it. One is translucent toner and the 2nd part is more white and opaque blend of oils and emollient ingredients floating atop. The mixed solution is semi-opaque and looks very liquid in the bottle. Upon first sprays it also feels like spraying water.  The best part happens when the solution is absorbed into my skin. The finish of this spray has a velvety sheen to it. It is hard to describe but after all of the moisture is absorbed my skin looks more even than before.  I did not notice any mattifying ingredients on the list so it left me wondering  as in “why” and “how” but  I like that type of finish a lot. My skin is left well hydrated after one layer making this product economic in use.

The scent of the mist is extremely light. I can trace the fragrance of pomegranate and some florals for a millisecond and after that the fragrance vanishes into the air.  I am intrigued by this product and want to test it out in different weather conditions in the future. Now, in the cold winter months, it manages to keep my skin hydrated for short periods of time. I can clearly see though that my skin is benefiting from the oils added into the mixture. I am curious about how this mist will do when the spring will be here. I am afraid it is too much for my oily skin in the summer but for the spring…..Feels like a perfect time for it.

For the final thoughts :

• If you have a dry skin you can use this every time of the year as it is.
• For the ones with more oily skin, like mine, try it and experiment with it.
• Normal skin would enjoy this product too as it is quite effective at balancing oil/moisture levels.

Pros:
+ Alcohol, paraben and sulfate free formulation
+ Contains adenosine and vitamine E
+ Good at hydrating skin
+ Enriched in various nutritious oils
+ Light sweet fragrance
+ Velvety finish on the skin

Cons:
– Contains silicones and fragrance
