What Are the Benefits of Mandelic Acid?

Mandelic acid is a lesser-known alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that is gentler than other AHAs, making it a great choice for acne-prone and sensitive skin. It can help to resurface skin, unclog pores, and reduce redness and inflammation. Mandelic acid also has antimicrobial effects that may be useful for non-inflammatory, non-cystic acne.

Our Clearer + Calmer Exfoliant Lotion is a potent blend of mandelic acid, lactic acid, salicylic acid, peptides, Manuka honey, prebiotics, and other skin-nourishing ingredients. It gently exfoliates skin, unblocks pores, and gives a boost of natural moisture. It also rebalances the skin microbiome and reduces redness, irritation, and flaking.

If you’re looking for a gentle, effective exfoliator that will improve the look and feel of your skin, our Clearer + Calmer Exfoliant Lotion is a great option.
