Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Hypochlorous Acid is created from dissolving chlorine in water. It is a weak acid that has antimicrobial properties.
Due to its ability to kill bacteria, it can be used to treat acne. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns or questions.
Fun fact: Hypochlorous acid naturally exists in our bodies. It is created by white blood cells to protect us from infections and bacteria.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

The only thing that has healed eczema and repaired my damaged skin barrier, caused by a nasty powdered sunscreen. I had no progress on healing for months until I tried this spray. 5 stars.
To anyone else struggling - I stopped cleansing and using all other products on the patch of damaged skin. I did this routine two or three times daily: Spray this on to damp skin, follow by mixsoon’s Show more
It’s good. But I can’t use it everyday, I get small bumps if I overuse it. 2-3 times per week is ok.

I love this spray. I use it morning and night and periodically during the day if I’ve gotten extra sweaty. I also spray it on my pillows and bring it when traveling to spray whatever I lay my head on. It has consistently helped my acne more than any other product. The only downside is that it smells like a pool but that smell quickly goes away when it’s dried.
I’ve seen a great improvement in my skin after the first couple uses. Just an fyi, since hypochlorous acid is chlorine dissolved in water, it does have a choline smell, but when it dries, the smell goes away.
