Remember how the dad in My Big Fat Greek Wedding used Windex as skin-saving spray for any and every skin ailment? This is basically that, but it’s not a cleaning product. Instead, it relies on hypochlorous acid, a wonder kid ingredient that’s antibacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory, soothing all kinds of redness and irritation from acne to bug bites to weird rashes. Our go-to move: Spraying it before and after wearing a mask to ward off maskne.
