Need a Pick-Me-Up? Try Spraying Your Face With Hypochlorous Acid

Skincare has a way of taking the body's own biology, bottling it, and selling it back to us. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is the latest example. It's a weak acid that your white blood cells naturally produce to fight infection and kill bacteria. Now it's being spritzed across morning and nighttime routines as an all-around skin fix. But HOCl isn't new. Hospitals have been using synthetic versions for decades as a disinfectant. In fact, the lab-made form dates back to 1834 and was used in both World Wars. So while #SkinTok makes it sound like a cutting-edge discovery, dermatologists have known its potential for a long time.
