How Hypochlorous Acid Serum Can Help Soothe Eczema—Not Just on Your Feet

Updated: Jul 14

If you struggle with eczema, you know it's more than dry skin. It’s an inflammatory skin condition that causes redness, itching, and irritation—often in hard-to-treat areas like the hands, arms, or behind the knees.


While our hypochlorous acid products are well-known for supporting foot health, the Repair + Restore HOCl Serum can be a game-changer for eczema-prone skin anywhere on the body.


What Is Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl)?

Hypochlorous is a molecule naturally produced by your immune system to fight bacteria and support healing. When stabilized for topical use, it becomes a gentle but powerful solution for calming irritated or inflamed skin.


Why It Works for Eczema

Our serum contains a 0.03% medical-grade hypochlorous acid solution. It’s:

  • Antimicrobial – helps reduce bacteria that can worsen flares

  • Anti-inflammatory – calms redness, itching, and swelling

  • Non-steroidal – safe for daily use, even on sensitive areas

  • Free of alcohol, fragrance, and oil – perfect for delicate, broken, or allergy-prone skin


How to Use the Serum

  1. Gently cleanse the area with lukewarm water—no harsh soaps.

  2. Apply 1–2 pumps of the serum to the affected area.

  3. Let it air dry completely—no rinsing.

  4. Follow with a barrier cream or moisturizer.

Use once or twice daily, or during flare-ups. It will take 4-5 days to see optimal results.


Where You Can Use It

Although originally developed for foot and ankle skin, the serum is gentle enough for:

  • Hands and wrists

  • Elbows and behind the knees

  • Neck and chest

  • Even the face (avoid direct contact with eyes)


Clean, Calm, and Protected

The Repair + Restore HOCl Serum offers a simple, steroid-free option for managing eczema naturally. Whether you're dealing with chronic flares or occasional irritation, this gentle serum helps protect your skin while supporting its natural healing process.
