What the gurus are saying

The gurus who reviewed it praise how gently it cuts down odor-causing bacteria while staying mild enough for sensitive skin, even around delicate areas like the eyes. It may feel slightly drying, though not nearly as much as benzoyl peroxide, and can be left on without rinsing, making it handy during workouts or on the go. One expert notes to skip other active ingredients right after application and let the skin settle, since the spray may inactivate some antioxidants; also, there's no need to spend heavily on this one, since the formula is simple.

"Hypochlorous acid spray is one I really like on the go. A lot of people like to use these for their face. They're super gentle and it helps to cut down on the bacteria that break down sweat and lead to odor. It's not as aggressive in terms of the wiping out of microflora. It's gentle, it's very gentle for sensitive skin. It can be a touch drying but not anywhere near as drying in comparison to benzoyl peroxide. And it can be left on the skin you can spray it there, you don't have to rinse it off, so that makes it a great option when you're on the go to cut down on the bacterial breakdown of sweat. It's something I use a lot when I'm working out."

"Hypochlorous acid does not have to be expensive, it's actually a very simple product with very simple ingredients, literally one or two ingredients in it. Do not overspend on this product, but it can be so helpful in cutting down irritation around the eyes, like styes and blepharitis. It also is really good for the skin and can help if you have conditions like eczema, acne, or rosacea. It's just a really great product. You do have to be careful with this though, it's thought that this can actually inactivate some antioxidants, so when I apply this to my eye area I'm not putting any other active skincare ingredients on right away. I'm just letting my skin calm down and relax."
