Do I really need to pat it in after spraying the mist?

I tend to spray mist quite often.

Sometimes I spray and pat.

And sometimes, I just leave it alone.

But the basic way to use it is to tap it.

Sometimes I wonder if it's okay to just leave it alone.

Is it okay to just leave it alone?

What do others think?

It feels moist even if I just leave it alone.

I couldn't really tell much of a difference.
