Product Overview

Dr.Althea Rapid Hypochlorous Acid Rescue Mist combines hypochlorous acid (HOCl) with tea tree leaf water and eucalyptus-derived ingredients to provide refreshing, soothing skincare.

Hypochlorous acid is used in skincare formulations to help maintain a clean and comfortable skin environment. Tea tree leaf water and eucalyptus extract complement the formula, while glycerin helps attract moisture and propanediol supports hydration. Zinc PCA helps care for skin prone to excess oil.

The lightweight formula is designed for convenient use throughout the day, particularly when skin feels warm, oily, or uncomfortable after exercise, commuting, or exposure to environmental stressors.

Although the mist is marketed for sensitive and blemish-prone skin, it contains eucalyptus leaf oil and tea tree-derived ingredients that may not suit everyone. Patch-testing is recommended, particularly for highly reactive skin.

How to Use

1. Gently shake the bottle before use, if directed on your packaging.
2. Close your eyes and hold the bottle approximately 20–30 cm away from your face.
3. Spray a light, even mist over the skin.
4. Allow it to dry naturally or gently pat it into the skin.
5. After cleansing, ensure your skin is dry before continuing with the rest of your skincare routine.
6. Use after workouts, while travelling, over makeup, or whenever your skin needs refreshing.

How Not to Use

• Do not spray directly into the eyes or mouth.
• Do not inhale the mist intentionally.
• Do not apply to skin that is severely irritated or damaged without professional advice.
• Avoid using it if you have a known sensitivity to hypochlorous acid, tea tree, eucalyptus, or any other listed ingredient.
• Do not assume the mist is a substitute for prescribed acne treatment or medical care.
• Discontinue use if persistent redness, burning, itching, or swelling develops.
• Follow the storage instructions on the bottle to maintain product quality.

Who Can Use

• People with sensitive or easily stressed skin.
• People with oily or blemish-prone skin.
• Those who want a lightweight facial mist for daily refreshment.
• People whose skin feels warm or uncomfortable after exercise or commuting.
• Those who prefer a non-greasy mist that can be used throughout the day.
