Brand note
Prequel is a dermatologist-founded brand that focuses on straightforward, effective skincare at accessible prices. Their hypochlorous acid spray is a standout — comparable to pricier options like Tower 28 but with a finer mist and better packaging, though the fine mist means you go through it faster. The brand's cleansers and moisturizers are generally well-liked for being gentle and non-irritating, but the Lip Visor sunscreen balm has mixed reviews due to a strong minty taste that some find off-putting.
