Been dealing with painful acne since my teens, and only in the past few years have I gotten it really under control. Not only is my acne mostly gone, but I've also been able to improve my PIH/PIE and my dry rough skin. Now I'm a skincare addict, however I've given myself a $30 limit for each product (there are a few exceptions as occasionally I buy something on sale for $30 or less when it's normally more). So feel free to explore my routine and liked products for affordable recommendations.
AND SUNSCREEN IS A MUST! I'm very fair and experience sun allergies when outside without protection for very long. The bumps are itchy and can be red and painful. They can take about two weeks to go away completely so I try to be very diligent about sun protection.

Commonly disliked ingredients that DO NOT bother my skin:
โข Fragrance (I don't go overboard and will still avoid it where I can)
โข Astringents such as alcohol, witch hazel, or birch sap (when formulated into products)
โข Citrus extracts (I do try to avoid citrus oils however)
โข Tea tree oil (if formulated into a product it's fine, but I still try to avoid other essential oils)

Commonly liked ingredients that DO bother my skin:
โข Vitamin C (especially in higher percentages, it often stings)
โข Glycolic acid (especially in higher percentages, often makes me red. I prefer PHAs or BHAs with less than 0.5% strength)

How I personally rate and review products:
โญ๏ธ Terrible! Who was this product even meant for? I cannot recommend that anybody use it.
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธ Absolutely did not work for me at all, but it might for some people. Still, I canโt say I recommend the product. I believe there's a better alternative out there.
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ Itโs not awful and didn't do anything terrible to my skin, but I personally did not enjoy using the product or see many results. Although, I imagine it could work well for some people.
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ Product works, but thereโs just something about it I wish was better or different.
โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ Amazing! Product works very well and is enjoyable to use. I highly recommend!

Hypochlorous Acid is a HOLY GRAIL ingredient!
This spray has helped treat both my acne and eczema! The antimicrobial properties of hypochlorous acid are amazing!
There are several different hypochlorous acid sprays on the market (many of which are quite similar) so I personally donโt think you could really go wrong with any of them, however here are a few reasons why this Base Laboratories spray is my go to.
1) The size. You get 8oz of product so this will last you awhile (for comparison, the Tower 28 spray is only 4oz). 2) The price. As of writing this review, this spray is only $13! 3) The added ingredients. Every other hypochlorous acid spray that Iโve seen has an extremely simple ingredient list. That may be helpful for someone with sensitive skin, but thatโs not me. I appreciate the addition of ingredients like hyaluronic acid and chamomile (plus I suspect that these added ingredient help to cover the bleach smell some people complain about when it comes to hypochlorous acid sprays. This product has a very subtle nice smell). 4) The concentration. According to the ingredient list on the back of my box, this contains 0.02% hypochlorous acid. Every other spray that Iโve seen usually only has concentrations of 0.01% or 0.015%. 5) The packaging. Ok, packaging isnโt that important but Iโve just gotta say itโฆ like every other affordable spray out there is ugly. The packaging is so boring and/or medical looking. I like that this spray comes in a pink can! Itโs cute!
If you struggle with acne, eczema, or rosacea, I highly recommend you try a product with hypochlorous acid. This powerhouse ingredients can help treat several skin concerns while still being gentle on skin. I LOVE IT!
