I have a piss cake. SpongeBob, that is fucking disgusting. Me too. That is one of the most versatile products in all of skincare, and I think everyone should have it. But most people are only using it for one thing. It's called hypochlorous acid, and it's something your own white blood cells already produce to help fight microbes and other bacteria. But as a dermatologist, I recommend it for so many things. Here's all of them. First is acne prone skin. It's really great for any acne routine and helps reduce the bacterial burden on the skin. Second, working out. Especially if you notice acne when working out on your chest, back, shoulders, butt, it's great to spritz those areas before and after working out if you can't shower and cleanse right away. Three is after shaving. It's a great way to cleanse the skin if you're prone to folliculitis or razor bumps. Four, eczema. Eczema often gets no infected with a bacteria and makes it worse. So it's a great way to treat your eczema plaques and keep them from getting infected. It also helps soothe them as well. Five, it's also great for minor cuts, scrapes, or things you like to pick at. It helps to gently cleanse the skin without using harsh things like alcohol or hydrogen peroxide. Six is eyelids. It's a great way to cleanse your eyelids, especially if you're prone to things like styes. And last is cleaning makeup brushes. Now this doesn't replace a deep clean, which they definitely still need to get all that oil off, but it can help freshen that up and reduce the bacterial burden, which often leads to things like acne. Now there's a lot of options out there for hypochlorous acid sprays, and you do not need to be spending a lot of money on these. I'll let you know how to find all my favorites that I've tried and tested below.
