Mandelic Acid 10% + HA delivers a mild superficial exfoliation that is gentler than other alpha hydroxy acids. With a molecular weight of 152.1 daltons, mandelic acid is larger than other AHA’s such as glycolic acid, which has a molecular weight of 76.0 daltons. This larger size results in a slower skin penetration, making mandelic acid a gentler option suitable for all skin types. A concentration higher than 10% is unnecessary, as lower concentrations of glycolic acid can provide similar exfoliation more efficiently.
How to Use
Apply once daily, preferably in the evening. You may dilute with other treatments to lessen potency until your skin builds tolerance. Avoid using on sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. Keep away from the eyes and limit frequency or duration of contact with the skin. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a physician. Only use on intact skin and conduct a patch test before use. Keep out of reach of children.
