#1 Dermatologist recommended Mandelic Acid 

Clinically tested and safe for use during pregnancy and nursing.

Skin Type: Recommended for Normal, Combination, and Oily skin.

Ideal for: Darker skin tones and skin too sensitive for Benzoyl Peroxide, hydroquinone, and glycolics.  Dermatologist, Gynecologist, and OBGYN endorsed pregnancy- and nursing-safe.

WHAT TO EXPECT

What You’ll See

Firmer, brighter, more even skin tone and texture. Gentle exfoliation reduces the appearance of fine lines, dark spots, and acne impactions. 

What You’ll Feel 

Micro-exfoliation is normal. If excessive drying occurs, skip a few days and restart every other day.

What You Should Know

Anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, brightening, gently exfoliating Mandelic Acid will not trigger hyperpigmentation. Excellent alternative to glycolic acid for sensitive or dark skin tones.

HOW TO USE

Regimen Step: Three

Use following cleansing and toning steps, when skin is primed for optimum product penetration.  

Frequency: Up to twice daily - AM and/or PM. Start usage every other day and build to daily use.

Method: Start usage every other day for two weeks by applying over the entire area (no spot treating). After two weeks, apply daily. Mild irritation is normal. If this occurs, skip a few days and restart every other day.

Pro tips: 

Apply Pure C + E after the Mandelic Acid serum has dried for added brightening and photoprotective effects.
