Sprayable Serums: The Next Wave in Skincare Innovation

From the runways of Paris to the beauty labs of Seoul, sprayable serums are the format everyone is talking about. 
Sprayable Serums: The Next Wave in Skincare Innovation

Is a sprayable serum just a "rebranded" face mist that justifies “shrinkflation” and a higher price tag? It's a valid question, and one we asked ourselves.

Our NPD lab went down this rabbit hole and came out of it with some thoughts, and a new formula: Calming Breeze Serum Hydrogel Mist.

It maintains the light, effortless, and portable nature consumers love of sprays, but with a new feature: sprayable biopolymers for film forming and improved absorption, it’s the key to ensuring all of the actives in the formula are not lost in the wind.

Why Sprayable is Different

Traditional face mists often drip or run, leaving a watery finish. Sprayable serums powered by OCEANTHIX™ LV change the game.

  • Shear-thinning behavior ensures an ultra-fine, atomized mist.
  • Droplets cling to the skin instead of sliding off, creating a targeted, mess-free application.
  • The formula absorbs quickly, carrying potent bioactives deeper for maximum efficacy.

The result: a serum-strength treatment that applies as easily as your favorite mist.

The Science of Rapid Absorption

Behind the magic is OCEANTHIX™ LV, a low-viscosity, hydrophilic polymer upcycled from invasive sargassum. This next-gen material creates a flexible network within the formula, reducing surface tension and ensuring droplets spread evenly across the skin. Unlike conventional sprays that rely on alcohol for quick drying, OCEANTHIX™ LV achieves rapid absorption without compromising hydration. The effect: a spray that leaves skin refreshed, soothed, and never tight or dry.
