I have naturally dry skin around my eyes, so the mist feature was actually the deciding factor when I bought this, and it has genuinely exceeded my expectations. Combined with the gentle heat and compression, my under-eye area feels hydrated and relaxed after every session instead of tight and dry like it used to. It's quiet enough to use while watching something on my laptop, and compact enough that I bring it along whenever I travel. My dark circles look noticeably softer since I started using it nightly. Cannot recommend this enough.
