Festival season is in full swing, as we’re in the midst of Summerfest’s three-weekend festival and preparing for Essence Festival over Fourth of July weekend. (And let’s not forget about Olivia Rodrigo’s newly announced Daisy Chain Fields festival!) That means it’s prime time to plan your music festival outfits for it all.
Each event has its own flair — from the music and performers to the venues, and, of course, the crowd’s fashion. So if you want to dress on theme for this summer’s hottest music marathons, we curated mini style guides for every kind of vibe. Whether you’re after a matching set for a desert fest, durable boots for a camping weekend, an all-denim fit for a big city lineup, or a breezy dress for a seaside show, we’ve got all the essentials you could possibly need (and want).
Whether you’ve secured a coveted ticket to Burning Man (August 30 to September 7) or have another desert festival on the horizon, you’ll need outfits that can handle sunny days and chilly nights. These festivals — and their scenic backdrops — are synonymous with effortless, breezy, boho style. Just take inspiration from Coachella-coded outfits. Think bikini tops, wide-brim hats, and turquoise jewelry by day. And be sure to wear cowboy boots, flowy blouses, and fringe pants that can take you into the windy nights.

Camping & Park Music Festival Outfits
Heading abroad for Tomorrowland (July 17 to 26)? Camping at Outside Lands (August 7 to 9)? Perhaps, you’re hoping to frolic in the park at Daisy Chain Fields (August 29) or Shaky Knees (September 18 to 20). No matter what, you’ll want to be strategic about your festival outfits — bring versatile, comfortable, and packable pieces that can go from stage to stage and last all day (and night). For grass-field festivals, balance your indie sleaze ‘fits with scarves to cover your face and rugged biker boots that can handle muddy terrain.
DashDividers_1_500x100
City Music Festival Outfits
In big cities, pretty much any aesthetic goes. For East Coast festivals like All Things Go in both NYC and DC (September 25 to 27), the weather should be mild — perfect for a denim-on-denim moment. In the Midwest, events like Summerfest (June 16 to July 4) and Lollapalooza (July 30 to August 2) bring the heat, so lean into easy shorts and light fabrics. And for Essence Festival (July 3 to 5) in New Orleans — which spans both indoor and outdoor venues — go for something casual and cute, like soccer jerseys and statement sneakers.
DashDividers_1_500x100
Boardwalk & Beach Music Festival Outfits
Whether your toes are literally in the sand or you’re catching a boardwalk breeze at Sea.Hear.Now on the Jersey Shore (September 19 to 20), keep things effortless and cool with styles you’ll want to rewear all summer long. Vibe out seaside in a comfy ‘fit like a linen dress, a patterned matching set, or a swim short look. Don’t forget a baseball cap or straw hat for extra sun protection — and for shoes, go with chunky slides, jelly shoes, or fisherman sandals that won’t fly off mid-dance sesh.

Just when we thought it was going to be a whimsical experience for us all, Mercury’s backsplash in Cancer from June 29th to July 23rd puts a damper on our travel, relationships, and desires. It won’t be as bad as it seems. Just make sure to be careful in how we express ourselves, back up information to the Cloud, and allow extra time when preparing for any trip. We can still have a fun season as long as we are mindful of the company we keep and how we use our energy. Self-preservation and protection may push us to lean into our comforts and nourish our spirits with nurturing and TLC. Feed your soul with love.
Now, think back and take note of the story that began on June 13th — the day before the New Moon in Gemini, which was June 14th, when the New York Knicks won the NBA championship, and the internet was buzzing with excitement. Whatever was happening in our lives then was a stage for the theme of Mercury’s moonwalk in Cancer.
As the retrograde commences, the way we communicate with others will be more important than usual. Mercury in Cancer is already a sensitive placement, but when retrograde, it intensifies our emotions. Therefore, opting for sincere, tender-hearted dialogue is vital to ensure we don’t ruffle any feathers. The flipside is that we can be extremely moody. Cancer is ruled by the moon, which changes signs every 2.5 days and goes through eight phases a month. As a result of the lunar evolution, we may become unable to pin down and erratic. If we’re not feeling the vibes, we should take a time out and focus on self-care instead of taking our issues out on others.
Throughout the cosmic journey, we will revisit old relationships and childhood dreams. Looking back is an amazing way to heal the past and our wounds; however, we must be gentle with ourselves as we do so, rather than be critical of mistakes made, and evoke compassion and empathy. Nostalgia is reclaiming our minds, offering a different perspective on memories with our families. The version we believed in for years might change, due to a new understanding of circumstances. The insights will urge us to forgive ourselves and others, even if we cannot forget. The goal is to release and relinquish anger from our auras.
July 12th brings a day of enlightenment, as the sun and Mercury retrograde form a conjunction, known as “cazimi.” The Latin term, which translates to “in the heart of the sun,” offers a transcendent moment of clarity amongst the retrograde chaos. For the first time in weeks, we’ll be able to see matters clearly and accurately, guaranteeing that we will not falter. To honor this astrological transit, set initiatives and make plans for the future. Make amends with those whom we care about. Seek closure with an ex. Speak up in the face of adversity. Respond to emails and texts that are piling up. Do not remain silent.
For the two weeks after Mercury turns direct, the planet will still be retracing and revisiting the degrees it was in during the retrograde. From July 23rd to August 6th, Mercury will be in its post-retrograde period, known as “retroshade.” We are going over the lessons and dramas of the planetary backspin with awareness and knowledge in how we wish to move forward.

Beyond buzzy ingredients like spicules — tiny, dissolvable microneedles designed to deliver skincare ingredients deeper into the skin — and PDRN, a regenerative ingredient derived from salmon DNA, Korean skincare has always put the skin barrier first. While many products popular in the West have traditionally focused on exfoliating or stripping the skin, K-beauty aims to repair, strengthen, and protect.
Always overdoing it on retinol, I, for one, need the help. But it seems I’m not the only one. Google search queries show that many of us are currently dealing with dryness due to warm weather, air conditioning, and dehydration from increased UV exposure and long summer evenings spent outdoors. Can Korean skincare get us back on track? I’d argue yes.
After spending an hour at a skincare masterclass with K-beauty favorite Medicube (the brand behind those viral Pore Pads) and skincare expert Dr. Kemi Fabusiwa, I came away with plenty of tips for achieving hydrated, glowing skin. Here are the 5 takeaways worth knowing.
You’re missing out on hypochlorous acid
I’ve watched hypochlorous acid go from an ingredient known mainly to dermatologists and surgeons to a skincare staple embraced by brands like Tower 28, e.l.f. Cosmetics, and Bubble. If you ask me, it’s one of the few skincare ingredients that pretty much everyone could benefit from. It’s an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory molecule that reduces bacteria on the skin, helping to prevent breakouts while calming redness and irritation. People with acne-prone skin and eczema often swear by it, as do those with bug bites, cuts, and grazes, thanks to its soothing, skin-calming properties.
Dr. Fabusiwa swears by a spritz of hypochlorous acid after cleansing and before moisturizer, throughout the day on bare skin, and post-workout to help prevent bacteria from mixing with sweat and triggering body breakouts on the back and chest. Medicube’s Hypochlorous Acid Daily Facial Spray is also packed with moisturizing allantoin and panthenol, so skin feels hydrated and dewy, not stripped.
Sheet masks are an indulgent part of a skincare routine, especially when stored in the fridge on hot days (don’t knock it until you’ve tried it). But while some of the essence absorbs into the skin, much of it stays in the mask itself, which ultimately gets tossed in the trash. If you’re serious about masking — and even more focused on boosting hydration — consider investing in a microcurrent device and using it over the top.
Medicube’s AGE-R Booster Pro X2 — the latest version of its beloved microcurrent wand — now features a Mask mode, which allows it to be used over sheet masks or paired with moisturizers and serums to help enhance absorption and deliver hydration deeper into the skin.
While this step is by no means necessary, it is certainly effective. If you’re thinking about picking up a device for Prime Day, the Booster Pro X2 is currently $60 off. In reality, any facial massage tool can help, but few offer as many modes — including microcurrent, electric muscle stimulation, LED therapy, and sonic vibration — as this one does.
Why hydration is all about lightweight layers
When my skin is dry and dehydrated, I’m notorious for reaching for the most unctuous moisturizer, hoping it will fix everything. But I’ve learned that long-lasting hydration is rarely achieved that way. Instead, it’s all about strategically layering lighter products, rather than relying on one thick, heavy cream that risks being occlusive or pore-clogging.
Post-cleanse, your best bet for meaningful hydration is a milky essence or toner, followed by a lightweight moisturizer, and, in the morning, sunscreen. The key is that milky textures sit somewhere between an essence and a serum, so you can skip the serum step if you want to. Right now, I can’t get enough of Medicube’s PDRN Pink Niacinamide Milky Toner, which is ever so slightly richer than others thanks to ceramides, which act like glue between skin cells to keep skin soft and smooth, skin-strengthening peptides, and, of course, PDRN — an ingredient derived from salmon DNA that helps support the skin barrier for a plumper, dewier complexion. Rather than pouring it onto a cotton pad, I apply it with my hands to avoid wasting a drop.
“Polydeoxyribonucleotide — aka PDRN — is an ingredient we’re seeing in clinic treatments,” says Dr. Fabusiwa. “So it’s great that we’re now seeing it enter at-home products.” And it really is everywhere. K-beauty brands from Anua to Dr. Reju-All were among the first to adopt the ingredient — commonly derived from salmon DNA — in skincare, but brands like The Inkey List and U Beauty have also since come on board. What makes PDRN interesting is that it closely resembles human DNA, and when applied topically and consistently, it’s thought to support skin repair, improve hydration, and may help encourage collagen production over time.
It’s especially useful when applied under the eyes, where the delicate skin is more prone to fine lines caused by dryness and dehydration, says Dr. Fabusiwa. Happily, it’s now being incorporated across a wide range of skincare, from serums to moisturizers. Dr. Fabusiwa’s pick is Medicube’s PDRN Pink Collagen Capsule Cream, which contains rich cream capsules suspended in a hydrating gel base for an extra boost of moisture on application.
In fact, capsule creams are very much du jour among Korea’s skincare enthusiasts. Also worth trying are VT Cosmetics’ PDRN Capsule Cream 100, which combines PDRN with hydrating niacinamide and squalane, and P.CALM’s PDRN Caffeine Blue Capsule Cream, which pairs PDRN with hyaluronic acid and panthenol for an extra hit of moisture.
Lastly, if PDRN isn’t for you, volufiline is worth knowing
Besides PDRN, volufiline is another ingredient popular in Korean skincare that’s likely already on your radar — especially if you’ve ever googled filler alternatives. The plant-derived extract, often sourced from asparagus root, has been touted as a non-surgical option for subtly improving the appearance of facial volume in areas prone to hollowing, such as the cheeks and under the eyes.
I can report that the stick is particularly effective on lips prone to dryness and, as a result, more pronounced lines. It also makes an excellent base underneath concealer around the under-eye area as it combines volufiline with hydrating hyaluronic acid, puffiness-reducing caffeine, and vitamin E for an added moisture boost. What’s also pretty great is that this is currently the most affordable skincare volufiline product right now, even cheaper than The Ordinary. It’s become a staple in my routine, and I keep it in my bag for lips and eyelids when they’re feeling dry in the city heat.

Action planet Mars is flying into airy Gemini in one big swoop on June 28th. The last time Mars was in Gemini was during the summer of 2024. If you cast your mind back you’ll remember it was a season where we hated to state our annoyances and grievances to others. Hopefully, this time around, we will be more conscious of the energy we’re putting out into the world and will not give others too much of our attention, conserving it for ourselves instead. Basically, be good and no trolling — even if the temptation is there.
How we choose to express ourselves and share our passions, can also distress us at times. We can simultaneously be playful, flighty, demanding, and downright mean. Don’t forget that Gemini is the twin star that has the devil on one side and an angel on the other. Choose your archetype wisely! Plus, Mars in Gemini isn’t known to mince words, which means they can weaponised if we’re not careful.
Mars in Gemini definitely allows us to have a sharper wit and tongue when discussing emotions, politics, and small aspects of daily life. The objective is to win at all costs by swaying people to our point of view and having the last word; however, there may be times when we are unable to do so, which will only make us dig our heels further into the mud by resorting to our charm and grace to manipulate people into believing our words. More often than not, we use distractions to create confusion, so that our opponents have no choice but to drop the matter because they are unsure what is real.
Although Mars in Gemini is usually a time when our energy levels are at a high, this year the transit will prove to be exhausting and frustrating. The reason is that Mercury, the planetary ruler of Gemini, will be in retrograde from June 29th to July 23rd. Since Mercury is beginning to moonwalk the day after Mars enters Gemini, we are going to feel an immediate shift in how we assert ourselves and what takes precedence in our lives until the retrograde ends. Instead of fighting for our convictions and vocalizing our sentiments, repression could take hold, urging us to stay in our lane and keep mum on matters. Contrarily, Mercury’s backspin brings out erratic sentiments, causing us to be impulsive in our interactions.
With Uranus in Gemini and Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, intensifying the energy on July 4th and 5th, the need to be the authority on situations and circumstances is extreme. It’s a case of little boss versus big boss — meaning the chasm over who is in charge will cause power dynamics issues and struggles with others. Taking the backseat isn’t going to resolve dramas, as we are called to participate and argue back. Be mindful of those who stir the pot by spreading falsities. The truth is sometimes bizarre and stranger than fiction, especially with Neptune in Aries shaking things up on July 4th.
DashDividers_1_500x100

When you first meet Kara Zor-El aka Supergirl in DC’s latest blockbuster, Supergirl, she’s drunk. She’s a mess of a woman — dishevelled, dissociating from her trauma, and self-medicating with alcohol, isolation, and her dog, Krypto. Milly Alcock’s stumbling, reckless, and sloppy Supergirl is a fascinating character and the edgiest female superhero I have ever seen onscreen. Alcock is exceptional in the role. It’s too bad the movie, in theaters Friday, never quite meets her magic. Kara is a character who lost her family way too young, was sent to a planet with her overachieving cousin, and whose only friend is a dog with superpowers. Her empathy is heroic and of course, when she’s not fleeing to planets without yellow suns so she can get wasted, she’s got all the strength of a superhero too.
But Kara isn’t your typical heroine, and she’s nothing like her cousin, Clark. She is a character who could have delivered one of the most original and thrilling films in the DC universe because Alcock is giving a performance worthy of a great and unique story. Instead, the movie focuses more on Ruthye (Eve Ridley), a girl on a mission of revenge after her family is murdered, and gives her the bigger arc and opportunity for character growth. It’s disappointing that the movie wastes so much time on Ruthye (and straight up wastes Jason Momoa’s Lobo) because Alcock’s Kara is so captivating, all you want is to root for her and watch her battle her demons while battling some bad guys. The latter is there — lots of fighting, explosions, and typical over-the-top CGI action sequences — but the movie never really meaningfully digs into Kara’s complexities and why she’s been so self destructive. It’s a shame because Alcock is bursting off the screen, begging for material worthy of her performance.
That said, I still think Supergirl is worth your time. Alcock puts the film on her back and saves it from itself. Her take on Kara alone makes it worth it, but there are also some entertaining moments where glimpses of a gritty, messy young girl tasked with caring too much when she’s desperately attempting to be careless shine through. When I talk to Alcock and screenwriter Ana Nogueira, they explain why this character is so special: she’s exactly who they would have wanted to see onscreen in their youth. I agree. I just wish she was given a better story. Below, Alcock and Nogueira talk about bringing this character to life, the impact on young girls watching, and Alcock’s affinity towards Kara’s “smelly” trenchcoat.
Refinery29: We don’t often see alcoholic disheveled women onscreen, period, but especially not in the superhero genre. Milly, talk about how important it was for you to play this drunken mess of a young woman.
Milly Alcock: I think that is exactly what excited me to play the role, because she’s so unconventional. I think that she’s such an exciting character, and she brings such a different perspective to the superhero universe entirely. I was just really thrilled.
I think the fact that she is messy and doesn’t have her shit together is something that I really connected to. Anna, you said that you were very intentional about making Supergirl rougher and grittier and edgier and funnier than people have seen onscreen before. So, talk about taking that approach.
Ana Nogueira: In a lot of ways it was inspired by Tom King’s comic run, and he kind of gave me permission by putting it in canon that this is how she is. To me, it just made sense with her backstory. If I had been through what she had been through, and then I showed up on this planet, and the first person I met is my relative [Superman], who is the ultimate lovely boy scout. It’s all a little, let’s say, destabilizing. It just made sense to me. It wasn’t grit for grit’s sake. It just felt true to the character.
It was a film that, if I was a young girl, I would have really loved to see, and I think that that is what makes this film so exciting.

There’s so much talk about this being woman-led. Supergirl is such an iconic woman in this DC universe. How much did both of you think of the impact this movie would have on young women and young girls watching?
MA: In terms of impact, it was a film that, if I was a young girl, I would have really loved to see, and I think that that is what makes this film so exciting, and it made it so much fun to play and to be on set. The impact is tremendous.
AN: Totally. When I first saw the costume design of the trench and the blondie, I said, if I had seen this when I was 16 years old, I would have lost my mind. I would have just wanted to be this girl. There are a lot of female superheroes, but they’re all… I just wanted this one to feel different. You can feel like you want to be like Wonder Woman, you can feel like you want to be like Black Widow, you relate to these characters, and I just think that there’s a whole swath of young women who are going to be like that is the one that reminds me of me, that is the one that feels aspirational and cool.
Milly’s performance is everything you would want when it comes to relatability. You mentioned the trenchcoat and I said the word “disheveled” earlier. Milly, what was your favorite part of the look she’s in for most of the movie since the Supergirl costume doesn’t come until later?
MA: I adored her look, and it’s probably the only piece of clothing that she owns. It’s the look that she has, because it’s not a priority for her at the time. It was such a comfortable costume, and as soon as I put on her civilian look, it felt like I understood who she was, and the way that she wanted to be seen and not be seen by the world, by it being so disheveled and so worn, and probably a bit smelly.
AN: Totally smelly. Totally. You see what her ship looks like? That trench doesn’t smell good [laughs].
Supergirl is in theaters Friday, June 26, 2026.

Livies, this is not a drill. Olivia Rodrigo has announced the successor to Lilith Fair, which launched in 1997. In the ’90s, Sarah McLachlan created a concert tour to help champion female artists and female-fronted bands, after being frustrated by radio stations and concert promoters who wouldn’t play female musicians back-to-back. Rodrigo’s all-women-led festival, Daisy Chain Fields, will take place on August 29 in Irvine, California. All net proceeds will be donated to non-profit organizations that advocate and benefit women and girls.
If you were thinking about heading to Cali for a hot girl summer, Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields could be a perfect stop. Imagine screaming and singing songs from You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So In Lovein the summer air!
Below, we’ve rounded up all the information about Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields festival, including how to buy tickets and the lineup.
How can you buy tickets to Olivia Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields festival?
There are four different ticket tiers. General Admission is $250 USD, and includes entry to all performances across two stages.

Pit Viewing is $1250 and adds exclusive front-of-stage viewing at Dandelion (Main) Stage with direct access to the VIP lounge, which has complimentary sodas and water. It also offers exclusive front-of-stage viewing at Marigold Stage and access to the dedicated Premium entrance lane into the festival.
What does Olivia Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields lineup look like?

Special guests include Karen O, Sarah McLachlan and Stevie Nicks.
On Instagram, Rodrigo wrote about how she had been dreaming of creating this festival for years. “I am so ecstatic it’s finally coming true! Daisy Chain Fields features an all-women lineup, and 100% of the net proceeds will go to charities dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls,” she wrote.
“The lineup is truly insane and full of my heroes and friends. I firmly believe that joy, community, and music can be the drivers of meaningful change and I’m hopeful this festival will be just that. I absolutely cannot wait to scream and dance and sing with you guys August 29th!”
Which women’s charities is Daisy Chain Fields supporting?
Rodrigo has chosen 10 charities to support. They are as follows: Baby2Baby, Jhpiego, National Institute for Reproductive Health, Black Mamas Matter Alliance, John Hopkins Center for Indigenous Health, The National Women’s Law Center, Center for Reproductive Rights, National Domestic Workers Alliance, Planned Parenthood and Freefrom. You can read more about the charities here.
How annoying is it having combination skin this time of year? You might be feeling dry from the air conditioning, while the heat and sweat are also triggering breakouts. You don’t want to treat the pimples with an overly-drying spot treatment for fear that you’ll end up making the situation worse. But something’s gotta give.
Chronic dryness with the occasional breakout is my personal skin-type POV, but I was recently introduced to a very if-you-know-you-know antibacterial ingredient that helped me handle dryness and acne in tandem — a multifunctional wound-healer that’s on the rise in skincare. I’m talking about hypochlorous acid.
What is hypochlorous acid?
Similar to hyaluronic acid, hypochlorous acid is a natural substance made by your body. While the function of hyaluronic acid is to retain water to keep your skin hydrated, hypochlorous acid is a natural disinfectant, made by the white blood cells in our body to fight pathogens.
So what is its function in topical skincare? Some dermatologists use hypochlorous acid spray on the skin before and after a procedure that will disrupt the skin barrier — like an injection, laser, or peel — to lessen the chances of a wound, redness, or reaction. “In my medical clinic, I use it to prep the skin before injecting someone with Botox,” explains dermatologist Geeta Yadav, MD. She continues, “It’s shown to be much less irritating and equally as effective as chlorhexidine [an antiseptic], which is how we normally prep the skin before a procedure. Even post procedure, I find [hypochlorous acid] soothing on the skin, while still being cleansing.”
Unlike a disinfectant with alcohol, hypochlorous acid is a natural derivative, which makes it safe for all skin types and a range of skin concerns, including eczema, cystic acne caused by clogged pores, and post-procedure sensitivities, all of which are rooted in inflammation. “Hypochlorous acid is fantastic,” adds NYC dermatologist Hamza D. Bhatti, DO, FAAD. “It works really well [for] eczema. When you have a break in the skin barrier from the scratching and itching, your antimicrobial properties are lower, so you’re more prone to infections. This acts like an antibiotic.” Even better? It’s OTC.
How do you use hypochlorous acid?
You’ll really only find hypochlorous acid in a face mist form, which is nice because it’s easy to apply and less concentrated than a cream or ointment. You can spray it on your skin in place of a face toner (after face wash and before any serum or moisturizer). You can also use it on the body, with hypochlorous acid fans saying it helps prevent post-gym breakouts.
During a recent skincare elimination forced by an allergic reaction to high-strength vitamin C, hypochlorous acid spray was my only form of skincare for about a week. I spritzed it on my face for three days straight, and not only was it incredibly soothing, but my red and rashy skin healed fast. Disclaimer: There is a naturally occurring smell of chlorine — it’s a little bit like a swimming pool — but it’s faint and harmless. Like the beloved SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic that some people say smells like hotdog water, it’s part of the experience.
If you’re dealing with active acne, Dr. Bhatti recommends spraying your hypochlorous acid right on top. But again, you don’t have to worry about over-drying because there’s no oil-stripping happening. I’d also recommend using it anytime you have a skin barrier disruption or flare-up. A new piercing? Spray it. An itchy spot on your neck? Spray it. A nick at your cuticle? Spray it. A chin pimple? You know what to do. One off-label use I like: dampen your Beautyblender with a little hypochlorous acid spray to ensure you’re not spreading bacteria as you blend your concealer or contour.
What are the best hypochlorous acid face mists?
Hypochlorous acid is no longer a budding ingredient with brands like Medicube and e.l.f. Cosmetics all recently launching face mists. Without further ado, these are the best ones to shop, according to Refinery29 editors.
Even if you haven’t heard of hypochlorous acid before now, you’ve likely seen the very popular Tower 28 SOS Spray, which has hypochlorous acid as its key ingredient (alongside saltwater). Hundreds of satisfied reviewers report that it has cleared their skin, and there are a handful of very impressive before/afters. Brand founder Amy Liu created it as a soothing face mist for sensitive skin — it’s actually certified by the National Eczema Association and safe enough to use on a baby’s diaper rash — but we know people with oily skin who use it to refresh their face throughout the day. It comes in an XL bottle, too.
e.l.f. Cosmetics is the latest brand to tap into the hypochlorous acid hype, and, impressively, its new spray is just $12 for 100ml. The brand highlights four key benefits: soothing stressed and inflamed skin, calming sensitivity, reducing visible redness, and being especially suitable for acne-prone skin, thanks to its ability to target acne-causing bacteria on the skin’s surface. The mist is ultra-fine, so it delivers an even, veil-like spritz.
Medicube’s hypochlorous acid mist is a little different from others, thanks to a formula packed with additional skin-friendly ingredients. Most notably, niacinamide helps hydrate the skin while also reducing excess oil and the appearance of enlarged pores, while soothing allantoin and panthenol support comfort and moisture. It also contains antibacterial tea tree, making it especially appealing for acne-prone skin. We like to mist it post-cleanse, as well as over skincare devices like LED masks and red-light wands to help keep them clean.
Mario Badescu’s Repairing Facial Spray contains just water, sodium chloride, and hypochlorous acid to help reduce bacteria on the skin. The mist casts a wide, even net over the face and dissipates quickly, leaving skin feeling fresh rather than parched or tight.
Magic Molecule’s Hypochlorous Acid Spray has thousands of five-star reviews, and for good reason. It’s formulated to help with cuts and grazes, breakouts, eczema, and even sunburn. One reviewer calls it a “staple for the home”, while others praise its ability to reduce post-workout pimples, soothe itchy bug bites and support faster healing for piercings. It’s a true all-rounder.
Water and hypochlorous acid are the only ingredients in Bubble’s Clean Landing Daily Purifying Spray, which feels instantly refreshing and cooling on the skin. It’s even better when kept in the fridge on hot days, and in sweaty weather it can help prevent sweat-induced breakouts across the body — not just the face — making it popular for use on the back, legs, and arms.
If you’re shopping for a hypochlorous acid spray on Amazon or you’re getting a recommendation by a dermatologist or doctor (eye or otherwise), you might be pointed towards OCuSoft HypoChlor Spray. Spate identifies OCuSoft as the market leader in the hypochlorous acid space.
When we asked Dr. Yadav what OTC hypochlorous acid she recommends to her patients, she points to this one by Twenty/Twenty. “Eczema and rosacea can involve the skin around your eyes,” explains Dr. Yadav. “Some people complain of dandruff on the eyelids, more frequent styles, and inflammation of the eyes. For all of that, it fits nicely to think about the eye area and a hypochlorous acid that’s ophthalmologist tested.”
