The Ordinary Mandelic Acid 10% + HA, 30ml

Description

Mandelic Acid 10% + HA offers superficial dermal peeling that is gentler than other alpha hydroxy acids. The molecular weight of mandelic acid is 152.1 daltons which are larger than other alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic acid is 76.0 daltons, for example). This larger size allows mandelic acid to penetrate the skin more slowly, making it very gentle and suitable for all skin types. You don’t need a concentration of more than 10%, because then you would achieve an indirect peeling strength that is more easily offered through lower percentages of glycolic acid.

Contraindications: This formula should not be used on sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. Please refer to the additional sun protection notes and other warnings in provided Directions.
