Hypochlorous acid

Find out why hypochlorous is trending in modern skincare and how this naturally occurring molecule helps support clean, balanced and comfortable skin.

What is hypochlorous acid, and how can it support your skin?

Hypochlorous (HOCl) is a naturally produced molecule formed by the body’s immune system. In cosmetic skincare, it’s valued for being both effective and exceptionally gentle, helping to maintain a fresh, balanced complexion without disrupting the skin’s natural barrier.

Unlike many active ingredients, hypochlorous works in harmony with the skin’s natural processes. Its pH-balanced nature and compatibility make it suitable for all skin types, even those prone to sensitivity or redness. It’s this balance between simplicity and science that’s made hypochlorous a rising favourite across the skincare community.
