Description

Mandelic acid is a powerful AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) derived from bitter almonds. It is valued for its exfoliating properties by loosening connections between dead skin cells, promoting cell renewal. It improves skin hydration, elasticity, and tone, especially on dry and rough skin. For oily skin with enlarged pores or acne scars, it helps smooth scars, refine texture, and brighten complexion.

Among AHAs, mandelic acid stands out for its strong antibacterial effect, making it effective in treating inflammatory skin conditions like acne.
