This can be used weekly for gentle exfoliation for problematic, oily, acne-prone skin. Recommended for all skin types including sensitive skin types.
Mandelic acid is a larger molecule than glycolic acid molecule therefore can be more easily tolerated on the skin types that cannot tolerate glycolic acid. Mandelic acid, as opposed to glycolic acid or lactic acid, has antibacterial properties and is lipophilic “oil-loving” making it the choice for oily, blemish-prone skin. Mandelic acid is recommended to improve the appearance of “acne brown spots,” referred to as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
