Play Misty for Me

Mr. Misty Humidifier

Attack of the Winter Apartment.

Don’t matter much if you moisturize and drink eight glasses of water a day. The season takes its toll. You’re as bristle as the Sahara.

Oh, sure. A humidifier — that most glam of appliances — can fix the problem. If you don’t mind refilling drippy tanks, freaking over crazy bacteria, scrubbing filthy filters, and actually living with the hissing thing underfoot. An alternative? Funny you should ask. Mr. Misty is a nifty contraption that, when attached to any regular showerhead, releases a small amount of pure mist throughout the day. It’s inexpensive, energy-efficient, no-maintenance, and effective: It can humidify more than 2,200 square feet.

Ensuring your pad stays tropical and tepid. The most chill spot in town.

Except outside, of course.
