Mandelic Acid is what I call the quiet storm, while extremely effective its less irritating to the skin with all the power of an AHA.  Combined with Azelaic Acid, lactic acid, and Niacinamide it's a powerhouse without irritation.  Its antibacterial properties and its ability to regulate oil production is a powerful combination for exfoliating congestion deep in the pores.  The increased cell turn over soothes out the texture of the skin and diminishing the appearance of hyperpigmentation.   Mandelic Acid is an alpha hydroxy acid that is naturally derived from almonds. The molecular structure of Mandelic acid is larger than most other AHA’s. The larger molecule means Mandelic acid causes less irritation with less erythema/redness.  Regular use can reduce the re-occurrence of acne clogs and breakouts.  This Serum is ALCOHOL FREE!
