Every Single Who What Wear Editor Swears By This "Unsexy" Skincare Product To Banish Breakouts

If you’re breaking out right now, just know that you are not alone. Whether a result of the sudden change in weather, the constant switching between office air conditioning and central heating or simply the effect of daily dirt and grime (or a combination of all the above), there's no denying that this time of year tends to play havoc with our skin. And the result? Unwanted breakouts.

Over the past few months, I've found myself plagued with a constellation of blemishes popping up at will and staking their claim on my complexion. And, while of course, these breakouts are completely normal, getting my skin back to its best has been high on my priority list.

As a result, I've reached for nearly every blemish-busting beauty product in my extensive collection — I've tried spot patches and drying treatments, cleansers and serums. If a product promises to combat breakouts, you better believe I've had my hands (or my face) on it. Yet, while these products helped to treat existing breakouts, I had yet to find one that actually prevented breakouts before they appeared.

That was until I picked up a bottle of Clinisoothe+'s Skin Purifier after I saw a number of my favourite skin experts recommending it on social media, and now I can honestly say, I'll never look back.

What is Clinisoothe+ Skin Purifier?

First and foremost, Clinisoothe+ Skin Purifier is a hypochlorous facial mist that offers antimicrobial protection. This essentially means it kills off all of the bad bacteria that breed on our skin, preventing breakouts before they appear.

You've most likely seen these sprays going viral on TikTok in recent months, with people spritzing them as they sit on aeroplanes or walk around the supermarket. Yet where Clinisoothe+'s formula differs is that, while many solutions that work to banish bacteria in this way are incredibly harsh on the skin, Clinisoothe+ is specially formulated with sensitive skin in mind. That means you'll find no alcohol, so as not to cause unwanted dryness, as well as a neutral pH, to keep skin calm and balanced.

To apply, you simply spritz it onto the skin after cleansing morning and night. Then, go about your business without fear of breakout-inducing bacteria sitting on the skin. It really is as easy as that. I use it before I head to the office, before going to the gym, as well as anytime I plan to get on the London tube to help keep my complexion in check.

Since I got my hands on this spray, I must admit I've gushed about it to practically everyone I've come across, including every member of the Who What Wear UK team. Managing Director, Hannah Almassi, is now a firm fan, too, as is nearly every skincare expert I speak too (and as a beauty director, believe me, it's a lot).

Sure, this mist doesn’t come with any of the self-care, mind-calming benefits of normal face mists, but trust me when I say this stuff works — and that's why I'll never be caught without it.
