I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green. Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...
Thoughts:
- Slightly on the expensive side unless you find a sale (my opinion because it is so easy to use mist quickly and it's only 100 ml)
- The product promises way too much - 24 hrs of moisture??? No way! This is definitely a suitable addition for more moisture, but it shouldn't replace anything else in a routine if skin is dry
+ Minimal ingredients
+ The mist doesn't spit everywhere (it's fine but could be finer for my taste as well)
+ Plastic bottle is light and this would be easy to carry in purse for example (but of course plastic doesn't feel luxurious)
+ Not really much scent, the basic slightly stuffy smell that unfragranced products sometimes tend to have, it disappears quickly though EDIT: Now that I think about it, it smells like a cow/cowshed
+ No irritation and doesn't clog skin, even I can layer this a couple of times (I'm clog prone)
+ Watery consistency, absorbs well, leaves skin slightly sticky though when A LOT is applied, otherwise quite clean skin feel. Doesn't seem to affect other products on top or under

+ My face seems to look fresh and calmed afterwards so there's really nothing to complain about! Surprisingly long term hydrating and soothing for being a mist
* I had this mist only for about a week for testing before I shipped it to my sister. I had looked at this product several times before.
* L300 is a Swedish pharmacy brand and they actually have a lot of interesting products, half of my mom's current skincare routine is L300. Not expensive either, at least the basic creams. I bought L300 urea body lotion for my partner as well for eczema. It is no heavy duty and it is sticky due to urea (I believe) but it works! I also use it after waxing my legs. I have wondered many times if I could just use it as a face cream and save lots of money. :)
* I think I would be interested in trying at least the hand cream and Ultra Sensitive Foaming Cleanser as well... or Intensive Moisture Cleansing Milk and Micellar Cleansing Water. They cost about 7 € a piece, hand cream is about 3,5-4 €.
Price:
15 € / 100 ml (I've seen sometimes on sale for 10 €)
Bought from:
Supermarket
Buy again?
Yes, very likely I'll get a bottle for myself later. When it's on sale and I have finished at least one essence/toner/liquid thing first.
Worth the money?
Hard to say based on such a short trial but, if you have a reactive skin I believe this is a very safe choice! Especially for me this ticks the boxes of being fragrance free, easy to get and long term hydrating/soothing for being a mist. I think both dry and oily skins can use this one. But I will still say, price is on the expensive side for a mist/toner and in my opinion it should be closer to 8-10 €.
