It will work, but this product price gouges. Hypochlorous acid is a fantastic and gentle antimicrobial that will help kill the bacteria on your skin that causes acne. It's also used to treat wounds, eczema, hand sanitizer, surface cleaner, and to clean medical implants before placement. You can buy it for way cheaper at $2/oz vs Tower 28's $7/oz. Try the Skin Smart version on Amazon instead. They'll market for different things, but same stuff inside the bottle.
