Use Tremella Tonic Activating Essence Mist to enhance nutrient penetration, support the skin microbiome, provide long lasting hydration, and maximize the effectiveness of your skincare products. Find the mini here.

What It Is
Activate the skin with a plumping tonic of traditional Chinese beauty superfoods. Tremella mushroom is boosted with hyaluronic acid for long-lasting and deep-penetrating hydration while fermented black tea enhances the skin’s ability to absorb nutrients. Use this essence on its own when your skin craves a burst of hydration, or at the start of your skincare routine to supercharge your beauty ritual for soft, hydrated, dewy skin. 100 ml.

Pair Tremella Tonic Activating Mist with Mount Lai’s nutrient-rich Serum Concentrate or non-comedogenic Facial Oils to maximize their absorption and effectiveness.


What It Does

A deep-penetrating activating essence mist that:
  • Draws and locks moisture into the skin
  • Enhances nutrient absorption
  • Smooths and plumps the skin
  • Supports the skin microbiome with enriching postbiotics
  • Helps other skincare products work better

Who It Is For
Beneficial for all skin types.

How to use:
Shake before use for best results. Hold 12 inches away from the face and press down firmly and confidently to gently mist, enveloping the skin in a dewy cover of hydration. You may also mist directly onto a facial round or into the palms to apply to the skin. Once applied, gently pat the essence into the skin.

Use before serums, moisturizers, face oils or balms as an activating essence. Use throughout the day as a plumping radiance mist whenever the skin craves a boost of hydration.

Love love love

I love this mist. My skin soaks it all up. While I relatively have great skin, I noticed that when I spray this before my skin barrier repair cream, the cream worked even better. I wake up with the most moisturized and hydrated skin. Not to mention, the bottle is great quality. I travel with it and I have no issues with leaking or damage. This is a staple in my skincare and I highly recommend it be for you as well!

Best Facial Mist EVER

I have used many facial mists in the past 10+ years and this is hands down the best one! The packaging is high quality with a pump that doesn't clog and delivers a consistent mist, it smells fantastic and — along with the other products or by itself — makes my skin feel fabulous. The perfect balanced toning moisturizing spray. It’s great anytime but feels extra nice to refresh the skin on a hot summer day. This is a must have product!

Perfect

This tonic has been a godsend for my skin. It keeps my skin clear and hydrated when I'm in a hurry, or prepping my skin for facial exercises. (They say do them with a clean face and before you apply any skincare, but that's a whole twenty minutes where my skin would have to feel tight and dry!) It's also perfect for when I'm too exhausted to do any self-care before falling down for a nap, and just a quick mist keeps my face fresh.

This is definitely needed!

Wow, I destroyed my skin barrier and when I used this essence (out of the shower) and combined it with Mount also vitamin C, my skin became very hydrated and glows! I even use the essence alone and it feel good. Throughout the day if I need a refresher I’m also using the essence. This is a staple in my skincare

the best!

i absolutely love this mist. the smell is so refreshing and calming and i definitely notice a difference in my skin if i forget to use it. just a quick spray, pat into skin, and continue on with my skincare routine! i honestly wish this scent came in a perfume or something i could wear all day long because i am completely obsessed with it. i bought the large size and i will definitely be buying the smaller size for travel as well because i cannot live without this product.

Loving this so far! It leaves my skin feeling hydrated and refreshed. I had some trouble with the packaging but that was probably user error. If you’re anything like me, just make sure the spray top is fully twisted on.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE RITUAL

Why It Works

Mount Lai tools are designed to work on the lymphatic system, address adhesions in the fascia and melt tension in the facial and jaw muscles, promoting a radiant complexion + combatting fine lines and wrinkles.

01 / Why is lymphatic drainage important? The lymphatic system is a part of the immune system that helps the body get rid of toxins and waste. ...

02 / The benefits of lymphatic drainage are two-fold. Lymphatic drainage removes toxic and congestive substances from the tissues, which allows greater absorption of nutrients. ...

03 / Why is using a tool better than using your hands? The beauty of Mount Lai tools is that they work on the skin without pulling. As a result, the tool is able to work on the very surface level of the skin to target the lymph system and fascia that you wouldn’t be able to target with your hands. ...
