Overview
Dickinson's has a long heritage in witch hazel and botanical skincare, and this unscented face mist continues that straightforward approach. The 3.5-fluid-ounce spray is formulated for all skin types including sensitive skin, with toning and makeup removal listed as its targeted uses. It carries a natural and organic label and has no listed scent, making it one of the more accommodating choices for fragrance-reactive users.
Sodium benzoate is listed as the key ingredient, which functions as a preservative. This is a common cosmetic preservative and its presence keeps the formula shelf-stable without parabens. The natural and organic claim suggests the rest of the formula leans botanical, though the full ingredient list is not available for deeper analysis.
At $15 for 3.5 ounces, it is a fair price for an unscented, sensitive-skin-friendly option. The 127-review base is modest but supports a 4.5-star average, which points to a consistently good experience for buyers who found it.
Pros
- Unscented formula is safe for fragrance-sensitive skin
- Listed for all skin types including sensitive
- Natural and organic label for ingredient-conscious buyers
- Multiple uses: toning, light makeup removal, refreshing
- 4.5-star rating from buyers who have tried it
Cons
- 3.5-ounce bottle is smaller than many competitors
- Only 127 reviews, so the rating is not yet statistically strong
- Sodium benzoate as the listed key ingredient is a preservative, not an active
- No hydrating or brightening actives listed
Performance notes
Sodium benzoate is a mild preservative, not an active skincare compound. It keeps the formula fresh and stable. The toning claim and makeup-removal address suggest the base contains cleansing agents or witch hazel-adjacent botanicals consistent with Dickinson's product heritage, though those are not confirmed in the available data. For gentle, fragrance-free daily toning, the formula is positioned appropriately.
What buyers say
At 127 reviews and 4.5 stars, the feedback base is small but positive. Buyers who gravitate toward this product tend to do so specifically for the unscented, sensitive-skin positioning. The modest volume of reviews is the main caveat to reading too deeply into the rating.

Frequently asked questions
Can this mist be used for makeup removal?
Makeup removal is listed as one of the targeted uses for this product. For light, minimal makeup it may work well as a gentle cleansing spray. It is unlikely to fully dissolve heavy waterproof makeup on its own, so follow with a dedicated remover if you wear long-wear products regularly.
Is Dickinson's a trusted skincare brand?
Dickinson's is a heritage American brand known particularly for its witch hazel toners, which have been sold for well over a century. The brand has a loyal following among buyers who prefer simple, botanical-based skincare without a lot of additives. That legacy is part of why buyers with sensitive skin tend to gravitate toward it.
What does sodium benzoate do in a face mist?
Sodium benzoate is a cosmetic preservative that prevents microbial growth in water-based products, keeping them safe and stable on the shelf. It is not a skincare active on its own. Its listing as the key ingredient likely reflects the fact that the formula is otherwise very simple and botanical, with the preservative being the most distinctly labeled compound.
