The Verdict

Copper Firming Mist is a well-rounded, low-effort addition to an iS Clinical routine rather than a standalone treatment — it hydrates instantly, layers happily under or over makeup, and brings a genuinely antioxidant-led ingredient list (1% Copper PCA, 1% Resveratrol, plus kola nut, guarana and yerba mate extracts) to a category that's often just water and fragrance. It won't replace a dedicated firming serum, but as a refreshing top-up step — at the desk, mid-workout, or setting your make-up — it earns its place in the routine.

What is iS Clinical Copper Firming Mist?

iS Clinical Copper Firming Mist is a 75ml treatment spray built around 1% Copper PCA and 1% Resveratrol, alongside a trio of botanical extracts — kola nut, guarana and yerba mate — included for their antioxidant properties. It's designed to hydrate instantly, help improve the appearance of skin firmness with regular use, and double as a setting mist over makeup. Suited to all skin types, including mature skin.

Who it's for

  • Anyone wanting a lightweight hydration top-up between skincare steps
  • Those looking to add an antioxidant-rich mist to an existing routine
  • People who want a setting spray that does more than lock in makeup
  • Mature or dehydration-prone skin looking to support the appearance of firmness over time

Who might want to skip it

If you're after a leave-on treatment with a higher concentration of actives, this mist is a supporting step rather than a replacement for one — pair it with a dedicated serum such as Youth Serum rather than relying on the mist alone. Anyone who prefers to avoid added colourants should also note the formula includes Blue 1 (CI 42090).

How to use it

Close your eyes and mist liberally over cleansed skin, holding the bottle 6–8 inches away from your face and neck. iS Clinical suggests using it once or twice a day as part of a routine — after cleansing and before serums or moisturiser, between steps, or as a final pass over makeup to help it stay put. For an extra hydration boost, mist onto a cotton pad and press it into skin, or keep the bottle to hand for travel, post-workout or air-conditioned environments.

Key ingredients

Copper PCA is a copper-amino acid complex included at 1% in this formula. Copper is commonly used in skincare for its association with the skin's natural collagen-related processes, which is why it turns up in products marketed for firmness — see our copper peptides glossary entry for more on how this ingredient class works.

Resveratrol, also included at 1% (here as a fermented extract), is a plant-derived antioxidant used to help protect skin from everyday environmental stress. Read more in our resveratrol glossary entry.

The formula rounds out with kola nut, guarana and yerba mate extracts — three caffeine-containing botanicals iS Clinical includes for their antioxidant contribution — alongside butylene glycol as a humectant and a low-irritant preservative system (1,2-hexanediol, caprylyl glycol).

Texture and finish

This is an ultra-fine, water-based mist that settles quickly without leaving any tackiness or visible residue, so it layers comfortably under or over makeup. The formula is set to a pH of 3.5, and the orange blossom scent is light and fades soon after application.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, please contact our team for advice before use.

Where it fits in an iS Clinical routine

Copper Firming Mist works well layered with Daily Dynamic Hydrator for an extra hydration step, or alongside a dedicated firming treatment such as Youth Serum for a more concentrated approach to the same goal.
