My Honest Review of the d’Alba Piedmont First Spray Serum After Weeks of Use
I spend a lot of time watching influencers rave about the latest viral beauty products online.
Partly because I’m a writer, and it makes perfect sense to keep an eye on what people are actively searching for, talking about, and adding to basket at 2am. But if I’m being completely honest, there’s another reason too.
I’m a middle-aged woman trying—sometimes desperately—to hold on to any semblance of youth and keep my skin looking as good as it possibly can for as long as possible. I’m only human. Also. I don’t sell these products so I have no reason to either big them up or knock them down, I just give you my real opinion.
So when the d’Alba Piedmont First Spray Serum started popping up everywhere—TikTok, Instagram, skincare routines that promise glass skin in seconds—I paid attention. It’s one of those products that seems to blur the line between skincare and makeup, promising hydration, glow, and that elusive “lit-from-within” finish.
And naturally, I had to try it.
What Is the d’Alba Piedmont First Spray Serum?
The d’Alba Piedmont First Spray Serum is a Korean skincare product designed to combine the benefits of a serum and a facial mist in one.
Unlike traditional serums that you apply with your hands, this comes in a spray bottle—meaning you can mist it directly onto your face at any point in your routine, or even throughout the day.
It’s positioned as a quick, convenient way to hydrate the skin and boost radiance without adding extra steps.
Key Facts About the Product
It’s a bi-phase (two-layer) formula
The serum contains both an oil layer and a water-based serum layer. You’re meant to shake the bottle before use to blend the two together, which helps deliver both hydration and nourishment in one spray.
The hero ingredient is white truffle extract
The product is built around Italian white truffle, a key ingredient used across d’Alba’s skincare range. It’s included for its antioxidant properties and its role in supporting skin vitality.
It’s designed to hydrate and add glow
The formula focuses on boosting moisture levels while giving the skin a more radiant, dewy appearance—something often described as a “glass skin” finish.
It can be used at multiple points in your routine
This isn’t just a one-step product. It’s designed to be used:
- after cleansing as a first step
- between skincare layers
- over makeup
- or throughout the day for a refresh
It has a fine mist application
The spray is designed to be lightweight and even, so it sits comfortably on the skin without feeling heavy or disruptive to makeup.
It’s part of a Korean skincare philosophy
Like many K-beauty products, it focuses on layering hydration and maintaining skin balance rather than relying on one heavy product.
It’s marketed as suitable for everyday use
The formula is intended for regular use, making it something you can keep on your desk, in your handbag, or as part of your daily routine.
My Honest Experience After Using It for Months
I’ve been using the d’Alba Piedmont First Spray Serum for a couple of months now, and I’ll be completely honest—it’s hard to say it’s delivered any dramatic skincare results.
That said… I absolutely love it.
I actually keep one bottle on my desk and another in my bag, which probably tells you everything you need to know. While I can’t sit here and claim it’s transformed my skin or shaved years off my face, it has become one of those little daily luxuries I reach for without thinking.
First of all, the scent is beautiful. It’s light, fresh, and instantly uplifting without being overpowering. Then there’s the mist itself—fine, weightless, and incredibly refreshing. It settles onto the skin without feeling heavy, sticky, or oily, which is something I’m always wary of with spray products.
There’s no residue to speak of, and it seems to sink in seamlessly—even over makeup, which is exactly how I tend to use it. I’ll often give my face a quick spritz throughout the day, especially when I’m sat at my desk and my skin starts to feel a bit flat or tired.
And this is where it really shines.
I’ve always loved face mists—they’re one of those small, feel-good skincare habits that make a difference to your day, even if they’re not rewriting your skin overnight. And with the weather starting to turn and warmer days on the horizon, I know I’ll be reaching for this even more.
It’s affordable, it smells lovely, and it feels genuinely refreshing every single time I use it.
Skincare results? Negligible.
Feel-good factor? Absolutely worth it.
I bought this myself (Amazon late-night scroll, of course), so this is a completely honest, no-strings-attached review.
