Description

Known as the non-irritating AHA that resurfaces your skin. One main benefit of mandelic acid is that it may be more gentle on the skin compared to other AHAs.  Mandelic acid accelerates cell turnover and functions as a powerful exfoliate to remove dead skin cells. Mandelic acid also improves skin appearance because it promotes collagen production. 

This is a liquid product to mix into products not a thick serum. 

Benefits of Mandelic Acid

Exfoliates: Mandelic acid is a chemical exfoliant, meaning it removes layers of debris through a reaction with the skin (rather than exfoliating via abrasive scrubs).

Promotes cell turnover: By dissolving skin cells, mandelic acid works to increase cell turnover, reducing the look of skin damage or acne.

Brightens skin: Exfoliated skin is bright skin and mandelic acid goes a step further, strengthening the skin so it stays bright with continued use.

Clears pores: The acid works itself deep into pores, penetrating deeper than other acids often used on blemish-prone skin.

Reduces hyperpigmentation: Increased cell turnover and exfoliating properties means the acid reduces the look of dark marks and sun damage.
