While organic skin cleansers have gained popularity in recent months, Mother Dirt's AO+ Mist is a natural product that is infused with healthy bacteria. In addition to its [probiotic nutrients](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/probioticinfused-moisturizer) -- each package features Ammonia-Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB) -- this product also boasts a limited life span. Every AO+ Mist package must be refrigerated before use and is recommended to be kept cold for a life span of up to 6 months.

Those using the product at room temperature will reduce its life span to a 4 week period -- a result of natural ingredients and bacteria that will lose its effectiveness on skin when it isn't kept in a cool area. Despite of lasting users less than a [traditional face mist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antioxidant-face-mist), this all [natural product contains no harmful additives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/revoderm-pharma) and is free from harsh chemicals.
