The internet is going crazy for hypochlorous acid spray — here’s how it can benefit your skin
Spritz your way to glassy skin.
Tower 28, which makes one of our favorite lip balms, has one of the most popular hypochlorous acid sprays on the market. The acid calms irritated skin, while the 4.5 pH balance helps to keep your skin barrier strong. This spray can be used morning and night and should be used in place of toner before moisturizing.
This spray can be used on the body, face or even eyelids and can help soothe eczema flare-ups or generally irritated skin. The formula is free of fragrances and preservatives, making it a good option for sensitive skin users. It has a 4.6-star average rating from 10,854 reviews on Amazon and comes in various sizes.
This hypochlorous acid spray has a 150 ppm and can either be spritzed on skin or applied to a cotton ball and then applied. Reviewers say it’s helped them with irritation, dry eyes, tattoo healing and more.
“The spray is considered very gentle, pure with its .01% concentration, and widely recommended across dermatologic and ophthalmologic use cases (i.e., eyelid dermatitis and perioral dermatitis),” says Reszko. “The product is safe near the eyes (ophthalmology-grade) and appropriate for sensitive skin.” One thing to note: At .68 ounces, it’s the smallest bottle on our list.
This spray, which has a 4.7-star average rating from over 1,000 reviews on Amazon, has a .015% concentration and a 5.5 pH balance, so it shouldn’t irritate sensitive skin. Also helpful: The formula is hypoallergenic and noncomedogenic to prevent breakouts from sprouting up.
