If you’ve ever wished for one product that could clean, soothe, protect, and support healing—without harsh chemicals—hypochlorous acid (HOCl) spray might be the most versatile tool in your foot care arsenal. At Lighthouse Foot & Ankle Center, we use and recommend it every day.
I developed Lighthouse Daily Defense HOCl Spray because I wanted a medical-grade, science-backed solution that was gentle enough for daily use yet powerful enough to support true foot and skin health. Our version is a stable, purified hypochlorous acid solution that mimics the body’s natural immune response—safe, fragrance-free, and suitable even for sensitive skin.
Formulated with only four ingredients—hypochlorous acid, ionized water, sodium chloride, and hypochlorite ion—it delivers a clean, effective, non-irritating way to keep feet healthy.
What Makes Hypochlorous Acid So Effective?
HOCl is naturally produced by your white blood cells to fight pathogens and support healing. The medical-grade version in Lighthouse Daily Defense Spray eliminates fungus, yeast, bacteria, and mold—all without alcohol, fragrances, oils, or harsh chemicals.
Simply spray on clean skin and allow it to air dry for 60 seconds to activate its full antimicrobial effect.
1. Daily Antimicrobial Foot Cleanser
Feet are exposed to sweat, shoes, microbes, and moisture—making them prone to infection and irritation. Lighthouse Daily Defense Spray helps keep the skin’s surface clean and balanced.
Use it:
Spray on clean feet morning and evening. Allow to air dry for 60 seconds.
2. Athlete’s Foot Prevention for Active Individuals
If you’re a runner, hiker, gym-goer, or someone prone to sweaty feet, daily HOCl can dramatically lower your risk of fungal infections.
Use it:
Spray on feet and between toes daily. Mist inside shoes after activities.
3. Shoe, Boot & Insole Deodorizing
Odor comes from bacteria and fungus thriving inside shoes. Lighthouse Daily Defense Spray safely eliminates odor-causing microbes without masking them with fragrance.
Use it:
Spray inside shoes, cleats, work boots, orthotics, cam walker boots, or post-op shoes. Let them dry overnight.
4. Support for Fungal Nail Treatment
Fungal nail infections have a high recurrence rate—around 50%—which is why cleaning the surrounding skin is just as important as treating the nail itself.
Our fungal nail protocol pairs Lighthouse Daily Defense Spray with our Lighthouse Repair + Restore Hypochlorous Acid Serum for targeted, dual-action care.
Use it:
- Spray the feet daily to eliminate fungus on the skin.
- Apply the serum directly to the nail for deeper penetration and targeted support.
- Allow both to air dry for 60 seconds.
This combination helps reduce reinfection and supports clearer, healthier nails over time.
5. Minor Skin Irritations, Cuts & Abrasions
Because HOCl supports the body’s natural healing response, it’s ideal for irritated or compromised skin.
Use it:
Spray directly onto clean skin. Allow to sit for 60 seconds before applying additional products or bandages.
6. Post-Procedure Skin & Nail Care
After nail debridement, laser therapy, or minor foot procedures, HOCl keeps the area clean without stinging or harming healthy tissue.
Use it:
Follow your post-procedure instructions using the spray twice daily as needed.
7. Skin Barrier & Biome Support
HOCl cleanses without stripping the skin or disrupting the microbiome. This makes it perfect for patients with eczema, dermatitis, dry skin, or sensitivities.
Use it:
Incorporate as a protective daily mist before moisturizing.
8. Travel, Gym Bags & On-the-Go Use
With our travel-sized 2 oz bottle, Lighthouse Daily Defense Spray is easy to take anywhere. No rinsing, wiping, or towels needed.
Use it:
Keep a bottle in your car, office, gym bag, or suitcase for quick cleansing and odor control.
Why I Created Lighthouse Daily Defense Spray
Patients needed a safe, effective, everyday antimicrobial spray that could support skin health without chemicals or irritation. So I developed a formula that is:
- Vegan
- Cruelty free
- Fragrance free
- Alcohol free
- Oil free
- Made in the USA
- Powered by stable hypochlorous acid
- Safe for all skin types
It has quickly become one of our most recommended products because it works—simply, safely, and effectively.
