💫 Celebrity Secrets & Skin Barrier Saviours: The Affordable Skincare Taking Over TikTok in 2025

When you think of celebrity skincare, billion-dollar price tags and luxury serums probably come to mind—but what if we told you the biggest skinfluencers and A-listers are reaching for affordable, drugstore-level staples just like the rest of us?

This year, the spotlight isn’t just on glitz and glam - it’s on barrier-repairing, budget-friendly skincare that delivers real results. And two of the biggest players on the rise? Hypochlorous acid sprays and celebrity-approved affordable brands.

✨ Skin Like Hailey Bieber… On a Budget?

Despite recently selling her skincare brand Rhode for a reported $1 billion, Hailey Bieber continues to use shockingly simple and accessible products - think £5 Cosrx Snail Mucin Masks and CeraVe cleansers. She’s not alone either - Zendaya, Sofia Richie, and even the Kardashian sisters have shared their love for cult favourites like La Roche-Posay, The Ordinary, and Eucerin.

What’s behind the shift?

✨ Authenticity is trending. Consumers are tired of 15-step routines and are craving transparency, science-backed ingredients, and real results.

🧪 The Power of Hypochlorous Acid: Skin’s New Hero

One ingredient making waves this year is hypochlorous acid, a naturally occurring molecule your body already produces to fight bacteria and soothe inflammation.

Sprays like Tower 28’s SOS Daily Rescue Spray have become viral must-haves, especially for those with acne-prone, reactive, or compromised skin barriers. They’re praised for being:

✅ Anti-inflammatory

✅ Anti-bacterial

✅ Safe for sensitive skin

✅ Perfect post-facial or after workouts

Skinfluencers and estheticians alike are calling it a “holy grail” mist for calming redness, preventing breakouts, and speeding up skin recovery—all without irritation.

💡 Why This Trend Matters for You (and Empress Skin)

Whether you’re new to skincare or rebuilding your routine, these trends prove one thing:

🔑 Good skin doesn’t have to come at a luxury price.

🔑 Barrier care is the new foundation of beauty.

At Empress Skin, we believe in celebrating efficacy over hype - which is why we’ll always recommend skincare that works, regardless of the price tag. Whether it’s a £5 product or a professional-grade serum, we’ll guide you toward what’s best for your skin.

We also know that the best results come from a combination of professional treatments and home care. That’s why our clinic offers targeted, transformative services like HydraFacials, SkinPen Microneedling, Dermaplaning and more - because sometimes your skin needs more than just a serum.

And to protect all that post-treatment glow, we finish every session with La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF50+ - a dermatology favourite that shields and calms your skin without compromise.

💌 Final Thought

Don’t be fooled by the price tag - celebrity-level skin can come from a mist, a £7 cleanser, and a smart, consistent routine.
