soothing mist

Relaxing water vapor

A soothing mist is a fine spray of water or medicated liquid meant to calm, cool, or hydrate.

Facial mists refresh the skin; aromatherapy mists fill a room with calming scents.

The phrase appears frequently in product marketing and video game descriptions of healing effects: The soothing mist restored her health.
