Frequently asked questions
Can this be used for eczema prone or acne prone skin?
The product is marketed to help calm redness and irritation and support skin recovery for both eczema prone and acne prone skin, and its alcohol free, fragrance free formula is designed to be gentle. It's meant to support the look of calmer skin rather than treat any medical condition, so check with a dermatologist for diagnosed skin conditions.
Is this a traditional toner?
Not exactly. It's a hypochlorous acid spray positioned as a gentle skin cleanser and toner, and the brand also recommends it for piercing aftercare and post workout use, so it functions more broadly than a typical astringent style toner.
