Clinical Proof & FAQs

Why You Can Trust SKEEN Rescue Spray

"Safe" is a word that gets thrown around a lot in skincare for sensitive skin. So instead of just saying it, we proved it.

MDA Registration — What It Means

SKEEN Rescue Spray is registered with the Medical Device Authority of Malaysia (MDA), the government body that regulates medical devices sold in Malaysia.

MDA registration requires product safety testing, clinical documentation, and manufacturing audits. It is the same framework applied to hospital-grade medical equipment, significantly more stringent than standard cosmetic registration.

When you see the MDA number on our packaging, it means an independent government authority has reviewed and approved what is inside the bottle. We did not self-certify.

Three Independent Clinical Tests. Three Passing Results.

Skin Safety (ISO 10993-23) Irritation Score: 0.0

The lowest score possible, equivalent to pure water. SKEEN Rescue Spray causes zero irritation on direct skin contact, even on sensitive and compromised skin.

Cell Health (ISO 10993-5) Result: 106% Cell Viability

Skin cells exposed to SKEEN were healthier and more active than the control group. The product is non-toxic and actively supports skin cell health.

Eye Safety (ISO 10993-23) Result: Zero Redness. Zero Pain.

Tested at full concentration on the most sensitive tissue on the human body. Zero reaction. If it does not hurt your eye, it will not hurt your skin.

That is why we are confident to say: 

SKEEN Rescue Spray is safe for daily use on sensitive, compromised, and reactive skin including face, scalp, and body. Safe for adults, children, pregnant women, and nursing mothers.

Safe. Non-steroidal. Hypoallergenic. That is the SKEEN promise, backed by clinical proof.

FAQs

1. What is in SKEEN Rescue Spray?

HOCl stands for Hypochlorous Acid. Your body already produces it naturally. When your immune system detects bacteria or inflammation, your white blood cells produce HOCl to fight back. SKEEN harnesses this same molecule and delivers it directly to your skin.

2. What makes SKEEN's HOCl different?

HOCl is difficult to formulate correctly and most products on the market degrade quickly. SKEEN Rescue Spray is medical-grade, formulated at a skin-safe pH and 0.02% concentration. Our formula is certified stable for 2 to 3 years, so every bottle works consistently from first use to last.

3. How does HOCl help itchy, inflamed skin?

HOCl is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial, meaning it fights a wide range of common bacteria on the skin's surface. This includes Staph bacteria, which is a key trigger for eczema flares and acne.

SKEEN Rescue Spray targets these bacteria directly, while also

  • Accelerating skin repair
  • Reducing redness and inflammation
  • Help break the itch-scratch cycle that keeps sensitive skin from recovering.

4. Is SKEEN Rescue Spray safe for pregnant women and children?

Yes. SKEEN Rescue Spray contains

  • No steroids
  • No alcohol
  • No fragrance
  • No harsh preservatives.

It is safe for daily use by pregnant women, nursing mothers, babies, and young children.

Patch test first and consult your doctor if you have specific medical concerns.

5. Can I use SKEEN Rescue Spray on my face, scalp, or body?

Yes. SKEEN Rescue Spray is safe to use on all areas of the body including the face, scalp, and skin folds. It is gentle enough for sensitive areas and can be applied wherever skin is irritated, inflamed, or open wounds. Simply spray directly onto the affected area and let it absorb.

6. Does SKEEN Rescue Spray have any side effects?

No. It contains no ingredients that strip or disrupt your skin barrier. It is safe for daily use, long-term use, and suitable for all skin conditions. If you experience any unexpected reaction, stop use and consult a dermatologist.

7. What is SKEEN Rescue Spray's pH and concentration?

SKEEN Rescue Spray is formulated at a skin-safe pH of 6.5 to support your skin’s natural barrier. Its 0.02% HOCl concentration is precisely calibrated to fight bacteria and reduce inflammation without causing irritation, even on compromised skin with daily use.

8. What does the MDA registration number mean?

MDA stands for Medical Device Authority of Malaysia. Registration requires product testing, clinical documentation, and manufacturing audits. When you see SKEEN's MDA number on the packaging, it confirms our product has been verified to meet medical-grade standards independently.

9. What can I use SKEEN Rescue Spray for in everyday moments?

SKEEN Rescue Spray fits easily into your daily routine, not just flare ups.

You can use it:

• After workouts to cleanse sweat prone skin

• After shaving to soothe irritation and razor burn

• On sun exposed skin to calm redness and heat

• For sweat rash or in hot, humid weather to reduce irritation and bacteria buildup

• On mosquito bites or minor irritations to reduce itching

• On small cuts and wounds to support skin recovery

• Anytime during the day when your skin feels sensitive or uncomfortable

Think of it as a quick reset for your skin, anytime it needs calming and support.

10. Why is it called a “Wound Recovery Spray” on the bottle?

“Wound Recovery Spray” is the product’s registered medical name under Malaysia’s Medical Device Authority Malaysia (MDA).

For approval, products must be labelled based on a specific medical function. Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is widely used in clinical settings to clean and support wound healing, which is why this name is used for registration.

At the same time, HOCl is also highly effective for managing everyday skin concerns such as irritation, inflammation, and flare-prone conditions.

SKEEN brings both worlds together - a medical-grade solution trusted in wound care, made gentle and versatile enough for daily skin support.

In short, the name reflects its clinical foundation, while its use extends to modern skin recovery and care.
