We Found a Better Way to Wake Ourselves Up

How often during an afternoon slump do you reach for coffee? It’s something we all do, but dependence on coffee can lead to side effects like stained teeth. Our new way to get ourselves going?

Mario Badescu’s Facial Spray with Aloe, Cucumber and Green Tea.

We mist it onto our face and neck when we feel like nodding off, but you can also use it to infuse your skin with more hydration before or after applying your moisturizer. Of course the scent helps too, a mix of peppermint-infused cucumber water.

Though it is $12.00 and can feel as frivolous as Evian Facial Spray, we found just two spritzes covered our face, so you get a lot of value from this product. This has become an office essential for us, and we can definitely see ourselves putting this into our dopp kit for use during travel, particularly after getting off a long flight or train ride.
