Gentle AHA Exfoliator | Acne & Hyperpigmentation | 99% Purity
Unlock a smoother, brighter complexion with our high-purity (99%) DL-Mandelic Acid Powder. Derived from bitter almonds, Mandelic Acid is an aromatic Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) known for being the "gentle giant" of chemical exfoliants.
With a larger molecular structure compared to glycolic or lactic acid, it penetrates the skin more slowly and evenly, making it an ideal choice for sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, and deeper skin tones looking to reduce hyperpigmentation without harsh irritation.
Key Benefits:
Gentle Exfoliation: Effectively loosens dead skin cell bonds to reveal smoother, brighter skin with minimal irritation.
Fades Dark Spots & Hyperpigmentation: Highly effective at treating sun spots, melasma, and post-acne marks.
Antibacterial & Acne Fighting: Possesses strong antimicrobial properties, reducing acne-causing bacteria, controlling sebum, and unclogging pores.
Anti-Aging: Stimulates cell turnover and collagen production, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Versatile Use: Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and reactive skin.
