{"product_id":"medicube-hypochlorous-acid-body-peel-shot","title":"Medicube - Hypochlorous Acid Body Peel Shot","description":"\u003cp\u003eA rinse-off body peeling treatment for the areas facial skincare never reaches — the back, chest, shoulders and upper arms, where breakouts, rough bumpy texture, ingrown hairs and uneven tone are extremely common and almost never properly treated. It works in two ways at once: an enzymatic and gommage-style exfoliation that lifts dead cells off the surface, and hypochlorous acid working underneath as an antibacterial agent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHypochlorous acid is worth understanding, because it is the reason this product exists.\u003c\/strong\u003e It is not a conventional exfoliating acid. It is the same molecule your own white blood cells produce to neutralise bacteria — part of the human immune response, which is why it is remarkably well tolerated on skin despite being genuinely antibacterial. It is used in wound care and in clinical dermatology for exactly this reason: meaningful antimicrobial activity without the stinging, stripping or barrier damage associated with harsher antibacterial agents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eApplied to dry skin, the formula gathers and rolls away dead surface cells as you massage — the visible \"peeling\" effect — while the hypochlorous acid addresses the bacteria involved in body breakouts and the tea tree and centella extracts calm the surrounding skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAn important clarification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite the name, \u003cstrong\u003ethis is not an AHA, BHA or PHA acid peel.\u003c\/strong\u003e There are no chemical exfoliating acids in the formula. The exfoliation is enzymatic (protease) and mechanical (charcoal gommage), and the \"acid\" in the title refers to hypochlorous acid, which is antibacterial rather than exfoliating. This matters for two reasons: it is far gentler than an acid peel and suitable for sensitive skin, and it will not deliver the aggressive resurfacing some customers expect from the word \"peel\". If you want acid exfoliation for the body, our Some By Mi AHA-BHA-PHA body mist is the product for that — and the two work well in rotation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey ingredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHypochlorous acid\u003c\/strong\u003e — antibacterial and antiseborrhoeic.
