How to Layer Dew It Now Mist with Serums, SPF & Makeup for Maximum Glow

Layering skincare the right way can make or break your routine. Whether you’re a skincare minimalist or a product junkie, knowing how to layer correctly ensures that your ingredients absorb properly and work more effectively.

At BORN2BLUSH, we designed Dew It Now Hydrating Face Mist to fit seamlessly into any routine. It’s your Hydrating Face Mist, barrier-boosting toner, and makeup-setting spray all in one sleek bottle. But when do you use it? Before serum? After SPF? With makeup?

Let’s break down exactly how to layer Dew It Now with your daily essentials—for glowing, healthy, protected skin all day long.

Step-by-Step Skincare Layering: Mist to Makeup

Step 1: Cleanse

Start with a clean canvas. Whether you’re using a gentle morning cleanser or double cleansing at night, this step removes oil, dirt, and buildup so the rest of your skincare can do its job.

Step 2: Mist—Dew It Now Hydrating Face Mist

Here’s where the magic begins. Right after cleansing—while your skin is still slightly damp—spray Dew It Now all over your face. It instantly hydrates and preps the skin, acting as a hydrating toner for dry skin that replaces sticky toners or heavy essences.

This is also where Dew It Now starts acting as a barrier-boosting face mist, thanks to its probiotic ingredients that balance the skin’s microbiome and support resilience.

Step 3: Serums

While your skin is still dewy from the mist, apply your favorite serum. This could be a:

· Vitamin C serum (AM)

· Niacinamide or Hyaluronic Acid (AM/PM)

· Retinol or peptides (PM)

The hydration from Dew It Now enhances serum absorption and reduces the risk of irritation—especially important if you’re using active ingredients on sensitive skin.

Step 4: Moisturizer (Optional, Skin-Dependent)

If your skin leans dry or dehydrated, layer on a lightweight moisturizer to seal everything in. On hot, humid days, many skinimalism lovers skip this and rely solely on the mist + SPF combo—which works beautifully for many skin types.

Step 5: Sunscreen

No exceptions—SPF is non-negotiable. After your serums and/or moisturizer, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher). Let it fully absorb.

Spray Dew It Now again lightly after sunscreen to create a hydrated finish. It helps reduce the white cast, ease any dry-down feeling, and give skin a glowing, dewy finish.

Step 6: Makeup

Whether you're applying a full face or keeping it casual, Dew It Now doubles as a makeup primer and setting spray.

· Use it before foundation to hydrate and prep skin

· Use it after makeup to set your look and add luminosity

· Keep it in your bag for midday refreshes that won’t mess with your makeup

This makes it one of the best face mists for glowing skin—giving your base a skin-like finish that’s never dry or cakey.
