When most people think of antimicrobial sprays or skin treatments, they imagine something harsh—alcohol-based, drying, and best reserved for emergencies. But hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is different.
At Lighthouse Science & Wellness, we believe hypochlorous acid deserves a permanent spot in your daily routine. Why? Because this gentle molecule is both powerful and safe enough to use every day—from your feet to your face.
Let’s take a look at how you can use our Daily Defense Spray and Repair + Restore Serum to support skin health across your whole body.
🦶 On Your Feet
Feet take a beating. They’re trapped in socks and shoes all day, often warm, moist, and prone to irritation or infection.
Use Daily Defense Spray to:
Neutralize odor-causing bacteria
Prevent athlete’s foot and fungal infections
Soothe skin after a pedicure or workout
Clean minor cuts, scrapes, or blisters
Refresh tired feet at the end of the day
How to use: Spray on clean, dry feet daily—especially between the toes. Let air dry. No need to rinse.
Pair with Repair + Restore Serum if you have:
Cracked heels
Inflamed or irritated nail borders
Eczema or dermatitis on the ankles or feet
Hypochlorous acid serum
🧼 For Hands and Face
Because HOCl is non-toxic and alcohol-free, it’s safe for even the most sensitive skin.
Use it on your hands:
As a gentle, microbiome-friendly alternative to hand sanitizer
To calm dry or overwashed skin
After shaving or exposure to irritants
Use it on your face:
To help reduce acne-related redness or inflammation
After cleansing, to prep skin for serums and moisturizers
On razor bumps, sunburn, or post-procedure redness
Serum tip: Apply a thin layer of the serum to dry patches, blemishes, or areas needing deeper hydration and repair.
🩹 For Wound Care and Skin Irritations
Hypochlorous acid helps the body do what it already does best—heal.
Use spray or serum to support healing in:
Minor cuts or scrapes
Bug bites
Razor burn
Chafing or post-workout irritation
Post-laser or cosmetic treatments (always check with your provider)
Both formulas are fragrance-free, alcohol-free, oil-free, cruelty-free, and vegan, making them a safe and science-backed choice for the whole family.
🚫 What HOCl Won’t Do
It’s important to remember that HOCl is a tool, not a cure-all. While it supports healing and helps prevent infection, it doesn’t replace:
A medical diagnosis from a podiatrist or dermatologist
Oral antibiotics for deep or systemic infections
A healthy diet, hydration, or proper footwear
Use hypochlorous acid as part of your daily wellness toolkit—not as a shortcut for medical care.
Bottom Line
Whether you're fighting foot odor, calming a breakout, or healing a minor skin irritation, hypochlorous acid is one of the most versatile tools in your daily routine.
Our Daily Defense Spray and Repair + Restore Serum are designed to be gentle enough for everyday use, yet powerful enough to support real skin health—wherever you need it.
