Mandelic Serum 11% - 1oz (30ml)
Maximum strength exfoliant that assists in the improvement of breakouts, dark spots, uneven skin tone, fine lines, dull-looking skin.
**Always apply Mineral SPF 50 to complete your skin care routine. This ensures you are protecting your skin from UV exposure that increases collagen damage, lines/wrinkles and pigmentation concerns.
Tips:
Great for all skin types.
Especially great for sluggish, Acne prone skin.
Especially helpful for blackheads (open comedones), whiteheads (closed comedones) and Maturation Arrest Acne.
Because this is a Maximum Strength serum, use caution when applying to face and neck. Recommend to start with Mandelic 5% (Mild Strength) first then increase percentage as tolerated.
Wonderful exfoliant for chest and back.
Do not apply to eye area.
Apply Acne Safe Moisturizer over top (once dry) to help prevent dehydration of skin.
