Your blowout shouldn't last one day. Your curls shouldn't fall by Tuesday. Your style shouldn't surrender to a single workout.

The Living Proof Perfect hair Day™ (PhD) Style Refresh Mist is a groundbreaking ultra-fine restyling mist that resets hydrogen bonds — the same bonds responsible for the shape and texture of your hair — to bring back your day-one look and feel without a single drop of water. Spritz, reshape, and go. It's the between-wash product your routine has been missing.

Born from Living Proof's MIT science foundation and backed by 120+ global patents, this is not a dry shampoo and it's not a texturizing spray. It's something entirely new: a Style Refresh Complex powered by amino acids, polypeptides, and hydrating actives that temporarily resets hair's structural bonds so you can restyle, redefine, and refresh — whether your hair is wavy, straight, curly, fine, or thick.

And because real life involves ponytails, helmets, and humidity, it also neutralizes odors via natural enzymes, provides thermal protection up to 450°F, and leaves behind a long-lasting sparkling citrus and neroli fragrance that smells freshly washed — even when you haven't.


KEY BENEFITS

  • Resets hydrogen bonds — temporarily reconstructs the structural bonds responsible for hair shape, enabling true restyling without washing
  • Brings back day-one look and feel — revives blowouts, refreshes curls, fixes flattened styles, eliminates crease marks from hair ties
  • Neutralizes odors — natural enzymes actively eliminate workout odors, environmental smells, and build-up rather than masking them
  • Thermal protection up to 450°F — biomimetic lipopeptide shield protects against heat tool damage during and after styling
  • Smooths frizz and flyaways — polypeptides and hydrating actives tame surface texture without leaving residue or weight
  • Adds softness and natural shine — leaves hair looking and feeling genuinely clean and cared-for
  • Redefines and revives curls — reactivates and reshapes curl pattern without crunch or cast
  • Lightweight, no-residue formula — ultra-fine mist absorbs fully and works on fine, medium, and thick hair without loading up strands
  • Long-lasting fresh fragrance — sparkling citrus and soft neroli scent that opens bright and settles into warm florals, musk, and woods
  • Works on all hair types and textures — straight, wavy, curly; fine, medium, and thick
  • Clean at Sephora — free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates, and mineral oils
  • 96% of users agreed the scent helped keep hair smelling and feeling fresh all day
  • 100% agreed the product extends style between wash days when paired with PhD Dry Shampoo

⚗️ The Style Refresh Complex — The Science Behind It

Hair shape is determined by hydrogen bonds — temporary bonds in the hair's protein structure that lock in the shape created when hair is styled with heat or manipulated while wet. Over time, humidity, sweat, touch, and gravity break these bonds down, causing styles to fall, curls to loosen, and blowouts to deflate.

Living Proof's Style Refresh Complex is a precisely engineered blend of amino acids (Lysine, Arginine, Leucine) and saccharomyces-derived polypeptides that temporarily resets these hydrogen bonds on dry hair — without water, without heat, and without washing. The result is hair that can be physically reshaped and restyled in the moment, as if you've just washed and styled it.

Simultaneously, a biomimetic lipopeptide shield (Polycitronellol, Polyepsilon-lysine) forms a protective film over the hair surface, offering heat protection up to 450°F for those who want to follow up with a curling iron or straightener.

Natural enzyme actives (Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract, Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate) neutralize odor molecules at the source rather than covering them with fragrance — so hair genuinely smells clean, not just perfumed.


Key Ingredients

Ingredient What It Does
Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract A yeast-derived extract rich in natural enzymes that actively neutralize odor molecules — eliminates workout and environmental odors rather than masking them
Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate A fermented yeast filtrate that supports odor neutralization and delivers conditioning actives to the hair surface
Saccharomyces Polypeptides Yeast-derived polypeptides that are a key component of the Style Refresh Complex — help reset hydrogen bonds to enable restyling
Lysine, Arginine, Leucine Essential amino acids that form the structural backbone of the Style Refresh Complex; temporarily reset hair's hydrogen bonds for shape memory and reshapeability
Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein A plant-derived protein that conditions and strengthens hair, improves manageability, and adds softness
Polycitronellol A biomimetic lipopeptide-type polymer that forms a protective layer on the hair surface — delivers thermal protection up to 450°F
Polyepsilon-lysine Works alongside Polycitronellol to reinforce the hair's protective shield against heat and environmental stress
Babassu Oil Glycereth-8 Esters A lightweight, water-soluble form of babassu oil that delivers softness, shine, and hydration without heaviness or residue
Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate A chelating agent that helps maintain formula stability and prevents mineral buildup interference
Bergamot, Lemon, Neroli & Eucalyptus Oils Natural botanical oils that contribute to the signature sparkling citrus and soft neroli fragrance profile

 

HOW TO USE: Shake well before use. Hold bottle 6–8 inches from hair and mist evenly through lengths and ends — focus on areas where style has fallen or frizz has formed. Use fingers or a brush to reshape hair into desired style while the mist is still damp. Air dry, or follow with a heat tool (the formula provides thermal protection up to 450°F). For best results, pair with PhD Dry Shampoo at the roots and Style Refresh Mist through the lengths and ends for a complete between-wash refresh.

Use cases: Post-workout blowout revival • Refreshing curls on day 2 or 3 • Smoothing creases from hair ties • Taming frizz between washes • Restyling before a last-minute event • Pre-heat-tool misting for protection.

Pro Tip: Don't over-apply — 3–5 spritzes is typically enough for medium-length hair. The formula is highly concentrated and ultra-fine; a little goes a long way.
