1/10 Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Ultra Fine Mist
This is high on our list because of how incredibly hydrating your skin will feel after a couple of spritzes. And it smells just like what you would expect: the juicy watermelon fruit. It's made of watermelon extract and seed oil as well as hyaluronic acid, botanically-derived AHAs, and apple cider vinegar.
The ingredients are all aimed at improving hydration and to balance oil production. The K-Beauty brand's watermelon range is so popular that its Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask sold out in just five hours back in 2017.
