I love setting sprays. The fact that they’ll help all my hard work last hours longer makes it totally worth incorporating into my daily routines. Who’s with me on this? *Looks for a show of hands* After I’ve spent an hour *cough…or more….* at my vanity, the last thing I want to see halfway through the day is all my work literally melting off my face!
I was recently sent this facial spray by Evian to try out. Have you ever heard of them before? I hadn’t. But, since I received it, I did a little research…and realized that Sephora, Ulta, and Nordstrom all sell this facial spray. See, I even looked for it on my last Ulta trip and, sure enough, there it was!
I like that this facial spray is easily accessible, either online or in stores. If you are totally new to this brand *as I was*, let’s learn a little bit about them.
Evian‘s History
Evian ®Natural Mineral Water’s journey starts as rain and snow high atop the French Alps after which it filters for over 15 years through glacial rock and sand to a deep underground catchment just outside the town of Evian-Les-Bains, France. The water contained in the spray is tested 300 times per day to insure quality and the consistent unique mineral content—guaranteed to be the same year after year—canister to canister. No other water has the same mineral content.
Evian Mineral Water Spray was originally introduced in France in 1962 at the request of doctors for use on burn patients. It was the first facial water spray in France and was introduced as the first facial spray in the United States in 1978. Because of the current world-wide awareness of the Evian brand name, and the 36 year efforts of the USA exclusive distributor (The Wilkes Group Inc. in Old Lyme, CT), Evian is the only facial spray to be carried by many prestige retail groups including Nordstrom and Sephora. It is also offered in many luxury resorts and hotels such as Four Seasons.
The French Government has extremely stringent standards for approving mineral waters as suitable to drink. Evian Facial Spray is the only mineral water spray in the USA to contain such a water and the only one with a companion drinkable bottled mineral water. Worldwide, the Evian brand can be found now in over 120 countries.
The Wilkes Group was founded in 1976 and has distributed Evian Facial Spray since 1978. The company is focused primarily on prestige distribution at retail and luxury resorts/hotels that buy the product as a room, cabana, or poolside amenity.
How I use Evian in My SKINCARE Routine
Mineral Water Facial Spray helps hydrate, tone, and soothe all skin
types including sensitive skin leaving the skin looking healthy.
Each evening, after I’ve washed my face, I liberally spray this all over my face. The point of this is to help remove all traces
of tap water and cleanser while also toning and hydrating. After it dries on my skin, I continue with my regular skincare routine (acne medication, moisturizer).
I haven’t been using this product long enough to start to notice the benefits of it, but I am appreciating the fact that my skin hasn’t broken out with any new acne recently. 🙂 In fact, I started feeling a large, tender one under my skin, but after a few days (with it not getting any worse) it started to fad. Which I think is fabulous! 🙂
How I use Evian in My MAKEUP Routine
moisten makeup brushes for more precise application and blending. It
can also be used to dilute makeup.
I think my favorite use for this product is to revive my makeup partway through the day. It does wonders for that! I’ll blot my face, touch up any areas that might’ve worn away, and then give it a good once over with Evian Facial Spray and my makeup looks reborn, just as good as when I first applied it. 🙂

My Final Thoughts on Evian Mineral Spray
The packaging of this product is really nice, sleek, and has a high-end feel to it. The price tag is kind of expensive, for what it is. It’s literally just water that’s inside (albeit, very beneficial water, I’m not knocking that!). For the 5 fl. oz. bottle that I have, it’s $12. It does appear that this product will last a good amount of time. I’ve been using it for several weeks, and the bottle still feels like it has a lot of product left, so that’s nice.
Is it worth the price? I say that if you can afford it, it’s worth having. Especially if you swim or are into sports — this facial mists helps remove perspiration, salt, and chlorine from skin…which we all know can be very harmful for our skin. I
I’ve really enjoyed adding this into my skincare routine, as well as having it on hand when my makeup needs a pick-me-up. I am looking forward to seeing the long-term benefits of using this product, and will no doubt be repurchasing this through either Ulta or Sephora when I run out.
