Motomont Facial Mists: Which One Is Right for Your Skin?

Korean skincare is innovative, and brands are always coming up with clever ways to make our routines a little more exciting, and Motomont is doing just that with its collection of three dual-phase facial mists.

Designed around the idea of moment care, Motomont recognises that our skin's needs can change throughout the day. Whether you're feeling a little dry, looking dull or simply need a refreshing pick-me-up, there's a mist designed for the moment.

The collection features three options: Matcha Calm, Rice Dewy and Afternoon Milk Tea. But what makes them different, and which one is right for you? Let’s take a look.

1. Matcha Calm Facial Mist – for soothing and refreshing

The Matcha Calm mist is designed for skin that feels warm, irritated or in need of a refresh. The matcha inspired scent has fragrance notes of eucalyptus, sage, apple, matcha tea and musk.

Key ingredients:

Green tea extract: Rich in antioxidants and known for its soothing properties.
Niacinamide: Helps support the skin barrier, improve uneven skin tone and regulate excess sebum.
Panthenol: Helps attract moisture and support the skin barrier.
Sodium DNA: A skin-conditioning ingredient associated with PDRN skincare formulations.

Best for: Combination and oily skin, or anyone looking for a refreshing mist when their skin feels warm or uncomfortable (hello hot flushes). Proven to reduce skin temperature by 5.7°C in one use, this is perimenopause’s best friend. This mist does contain AHA, so make sure you have your SPF on.

2. Rice Dewy Facial Mist – for hydration and glow

Looking a little tired or lacking radiance? Rice Dewy is all about giving skin a fresh, hydrated appearance. Think glass skin with minimal effort- approx. 41% more radiant if you want to be exact. This mist features Motomont's signature 'Mild Milk Rice' fragrance, with notes of Rice Milk, Baked Bean (not Heinz), Nutty Accord, White Musk and Vanilla for a warm soothing aroma.

Its standout feature is its 43.4% rice bran water content, making it an interesting option for anyone who loves rice-based Korean skincare.

Key ingredients:

Rice bran water: Contains naturally occurring antioxidants and skin-conditioning compounds.
Niacinamide: Helps improve uneven-looking tone and support the skin barrier.
Glycerin: Attracts and retains moisture.
Beta-glucan: Helps hydrate and soothe the skin.
Sodium DNA: Featured in the brand's rice-derived PDRN concept.

Best for: Dull, dehydrated and lacklustre skin, particularly if you're looking for a boost of hydration and radiance. This mist does contain AHA, so you can expect your complexion to be clearer and more refined. Just make sure you have your SPF on.

3. Afternoon Milk Tea Facial Mist – for everyday moisture

This is Motomont's best-known mist, designed for those mid-afternoon moments when your skin and makeup are looking a little tired. The Afternoon Milk Tea Mist has a sweet tea inspired scent.

Its dual-phase formula combines an essence with a cream component, helping refresh the complexion without relying on a simple water-based spray.

Key ingredients:

Niacinamide: Supports the skin barrier and helps improve uneven tone.
Hyaluronic acid: Attracts moisture and helps skin look plumper.
Cocoa extract: Provides antioxidant and skin-conditioning benefits.
Adenosine: Used in Korean skincare for its wrinkle-care properties.
Vitamin E: An antioxidant that helps protect against oxidative stress.

Best for: Normal, dry and combination skin, particularly anyone wanting to refresh their complexion and makeup throughout the day. After one use you get an extra 6 hours wear on your makeup.

Which one should you choose?

Here's our quick guide:

Dry skin: Afternoon Milk Tea for its more nourishing formula.
Oily skin: Matcha Calm for a refreshing option with niacinamide.
Combination skin: Afternoon Milk Tea for an everyday moisture boost.
Dehydrated skin: Rice Dewy for its rice bran water, glycerin and beta-glucan.
Dull skin: Rice Dewy for a fresh, radiant-looking complexion.
Sensitive skin: Approach all three with care. They contain fragrance, so patch testing is recommended, particularly if your skin is reactive.

What makes Motomont different?

All three mists share a dual-phase formula, combining watery and cream-based components to provide more than a traditional facial mist.

Remember to shake well before spraying to combine the two phases.

You can use them after cleansing, throughout the day or whenever your skin needs a little extra attention. Pop it in your bag and use it when going from the classic Scottish outdoors to an overheated office or store. With winter setting in, this will be your skin’s saviour. Just remember that facial mists complement your skincare routine rather than replace your moisturiser or SPF.

The Wee Ghost Beauty verdict

I love that Motomont has created three mists with genuinely different purposes rather than simply giving us three versions of the same product. My favourite? I’m a sucker for anything Vanilla, and the Rice Mist has my heart for that, plus I like the highly reflective look. I want to be able to reflect light off my forehead, so give me the glow all day long.

Your pick will depend on what your skin needs:
