6Glycerin
Glycerin is The primary humectant carrying water into the surface. It appears at position 7 of 15 on Dr. Althea's own manufacturer ingredient list for this formula, which is real evidence of what the formula is built around rather than a marketing label placed over it.
14Zinc PCA

Dr. Althea Rapid Hypochlorous Acid Rescue Mist
Where does this mist go in my routine?
At any point in the day, over bare skin or over makeup. Anything thinner than a mist goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Zinc PCA and not three changes at once.
What else is on the list besides Zinc PCA?
Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Extract and Glycereth-25 PCA Isostearate. The order they are printed in on this mist's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Zinc PCA sits relative to them. Zinc PCA itself is named fourteenth on it.
Not on the ingredient list below: fragrance or parfum, denatured or SD alcohol, silicones, parabens, sulfate surfactants, mineral oil or petrolatum and added color.

14 of 14 explained
- Water (Aqua) solvent
- Water is the base almost every serum, toner and cream is built on. It dissolves the water-loving ingredients and sets how light the finished texture feels. On an INCI list it is usually first, which only means it is the largest single ingredient by weight.
- 1,2-Hexanediol humectant
- 1,2-Hexanediol is a glycol used for two reasons: it holds water like glycerin, and it makes a formula harder for microbes to live in, so less traditional preservative is needed. Korean formulas use it heavily for that second reason.
- Hypochlorous Acid preservative
- The same mild antimicrobial the body immune cells produce. It is used at very low concentration and is unstable in storage, so products carrying it are made to be used quickly.
- Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Water plant extract
- Tea Tree Leaf Water is the distillate, used in place of plain water as a base. It carries a trace of the plant's aroma and none of the essential oil's strength.
- Propanediol humectant
- Propanediol is a plant-derived glycol used in place of propylene glycol. It hydrates, carries actives into solution, and gives a lighter, less sticky slip than glycerin at the same strength.
- Glycerin humectant
- Glycerin is the most used humectant in skincare. It draws water into the outer layer of skin and holds it there, and it is one of the very few ingredients whose hydrating effect is settled science rather than marketing. Higher amounts feel tacky, which is why it is usually blended.
- Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Extract plant extract
- Eucalyptus leaf extract, the water-based extract rather than the essential oil. It carries tannins and flavonoids with only a trace of the aroma.
- Hydroxyacetophenone preservative booster
- Hydroxyacetophenone is an antioxidant that also strengthens a preservative system, so a formula needs less traditional preservative. Korean formulas pair it with 1,2-hexanediol constantly.
- Glycereth-25 PCA Isostearate emollient
- Glycereth-25 PCA Isostearate is a water-dispersible emollient that softens skin and helps oils and water stay mixed. It reads as light rather than rich on the skin.
- Ethylhexylglycerin preservative booster
- Ethylhexylglycerin softens skin and boosts a preservative system, which is why it is nearly always sitting beside phenoxyethanol or 1,2-hexanediol. It also cuts down the odour bacteria produce, so it turns up in deodorising products.
- Sodium Citrate pH adjuster
- Sodium Citrate is the salt of citric acid, used as a buffer: it holds a formula at a steady pH rather than pushing it in one direction. It is also a mild chelator.
- Citric Acid pH adjuster
- Citric Acid is used in tiny amounts to bring a formula to the pH its actives need, not as an exfoliant at that level. It is an AHA, so at much higher concentrations it can also exfoliate.
2 more explained
- Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil fragrance component
- Eucalyptus Leaf Oil is an essential oil carrying eucalyptol. It scents a formula sharply and gives a cooling sensation.
- Zinc PCA active
- Zinc PCA pairs zinc with the humectant PCA. It is used in oily and blemish-prone formulas for the look of shine and visible pores, and it hydrates at the same time.

How it works
The Rapid Hypochlorous Acid Rescue Mist is a 100ml mist, used at any point in the day, over bare skin or over makeup. The active it is built around is Zinc PCA, named fourteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Extract and Glycereth-25 PCA Isostearate, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Zinc PCA stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the mist format rather than by the list alone. Dr.Althea sells this Zinc PCA mist in Korea, and this is that version.
How to use
- Use the Rapid Hypochlorous Acid Rescue Mist at any point in the day, over bare skin or over makeup.
- Hold it about a hand's width from the face, mist twice, then press it in with your palms.
- On a bare face it sits after cleansing and before toner. Over makeup it goes on last, and it is patted, never rubbed.
- As often as skin feels dry. Do not leave a mist to dry on its own; water leaving the surface takes some of the skin's own with it.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this mist on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Zinc PCA on the list.
- Introduce this mist on its own for the first week, so anything your skin does is traceable to the Zinc PCA rather than to three changes at once.
