Key ingredients
a naturally occurring antimicrobial molecule that helps protect the body from bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It works by damaging microbial proteins, membranes, and other essential components, which can kill or inhibit microorganisms. In skincare, hypochlorous acid is used to help reduce acne-associated bacteria and inflammation and is often used on eczema-prone or irritated skin to reduce microbial buildup. It is also used for wound care to help cleanse wounds and reduce the risk of infection.

Questions about this product
Answered by Dr. Leslie Baumann, MD, FAAD · Miami, FL · 200+ partner practices
Yes. CLn Hypochlorous Spray is a dermatologist favorite for use after shaving, especially for acne-prone or sensitive skin. Shaving can irritate the skin and contribute to inflammation around hair follicles. Spraying it on after shaving helps reduce acne-causing bacteria and other microorganisms that can contribute to beard-area breakouts and folliculitis. It is non-drying and non-irritating, making it a great alternative to alcohol-based aftershaves that can sting and dry the skin.
Yes. CLn Hypochlorous Spray is a great antimicrobial option for sensitive skin because hypochlorous acid can reduce microorganisms on the skin without the drying and irritation caused by many traditional acne treatments. It is especially useful when sensitive skin needs antimicrobial treatment but cannot tolerate benzoyl peroxide, acids, or stronger cleansers.
Yes. CLn Spray is an excellent choice for dry and very dry skin types because it provides antimicrobial benefits without stripping the skin's natural lipids. Very dry skin types can wash with a creamy, barrier-safe cleanser and then apply the spray as an antimicrobial acne toner.
Yes. Hypochlorous acid has antimicrobial and antifungal activity, making CLn Spray a useful option for skin prone to Malassezia folliculitis, commonly called fungal acne. It provides antimicrobial benefits without the dryness and irritation that can make other acne treatments difficult for sensitive skin to tolerate.
Can CLn Spray Help Prevent Skin Infections When I Have Eczema?
Yes. Eczema and a damaged skin barrier can make it easier for Staphylococcus aureus to colonize the skin. Hypochlorous acid has antimicrobial activity against S. aureus and can be a useful addition to an eczema-prone skincare routine, particularly when you want antimicrobial benefits without further drying or damaging the skin barrier. It should not replace medical treatment for an active skin infection.
Yes. If washing your face in the morning makes your rosacea red, irritated, or uncomfortable, you can use CLn Spray instead of cleansing in the morning. This can be especially helpful for sensitive rosacea-prone skin that becomes irritated from twice-daily cleansing.
Papulopustular rosacea is associated with inflammation and changes in the skin's microbial environment. Demodex mites and bacteria associated with them may contribute to the inflammatory response in some patients. Using a gentle antimicrobial spray can therefore be a useful way to freshen the skin in the morning without the friction, surfactants, and barrier disruption of another cleansing step. Follow with the moisturizer and sunscreen appropriate for your Baumann Skin Type.
