Hyacyn Active Mist
Microbiome-friendly purifying toner mist (Hypochlorous Acid, HOCl)
​
What It Is
Hyacyn Active Mist is a lightweight, dermatologist-trusted toner that purifies, calms, and preps your skin so the rest of your products can work their best.
Its active ingredient, Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl), is a molecule your own immune system naturally produces to fight germs, calm inflammation, and accelerate healing.
HOCl is antimicrobial, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antipruritic (anti-itch). It begins reducing itch and irritation within 24 hours (≈50%), and by day three, irritation can be reduced by up to 85%.
​
Why This Step Matters
After cleansing, you may notice your skin feels tight—this happens because the stratum corneum (outermost skin layer) temporarily contracts and the skin’s pH shifts toward alkaline.
Hyacyn Active Mist immediately relaxes the stratum corneum and restores your skin to its optimal acidic pH of ~5.6, the level your skin prefers for barrier function and product absorption.
This pH balance ensures that the next product you apply—whether a brightening serum, melanin-inhibitor, or retinol—can actually penetrate and perform as designed.
Skipping toner = less absorption → slower, inconsistent results.
​
What Makes Hyacyn Different
-
Stability & Potency: Hypochlorous Acid is naturally volatile and can degrade when exposed to heat, light, or air.
Hyacyn is uniquely triple-walled and airless, preventing degradation and ensuring consistent efficacy from the first spray to the last. -
Micronized Delivery: The formula is micronized so that it can reach each and every pore for complete antimicrobial coverage.
-
Precision Application: The ultrafine, dripless mist creates an even, cloud-like veil that absorbs quickly without residue—ensuring deep penetration and immediate comfort.
​​
Who It’s For
All skin types—including sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin—and those prone to:
-
Acne or congestion
-
Eczema or psoriasis
-
Rosacea or inflammation
-
Irritation, dryness, or post-treatment sensitivity
​​
Benefits You Can Expect
-
Clears acne and helps prevent new breakouts (targets Cutibacterium acnes)
-
Instantly calms redness, irritation, inflammation, and itch
-
Rebalances pH and relaxes the skin barrier for improved absorption
-
Strengthens barrier function and speeds healing
-
Kills bacteria, fungi, viruses (including COVID-19), Staph, MRSA, and other pathogens
-
Restores the skin’s natural acid mantle (~5.6 pH)
-
Helps correct and prevent flare-ups of eczema, rosacea, or dermatitis
Clinical note: Consistent pH balance enhances the performance of subsequent actives such as pigment inhibitors, peptides, and retinoids.
