The Ordinary Mandelic Acid 10% HA

Description

What it does:

Mandelic Acid 10% HA offers superficial dermal peeling that is gentler than other alpha hydroxy acids. The molecular weight of mandelic acid is larger than other alpha hydroxy acids, which allows it to penetrate the skin more slowly, in turn making it very gentle and suitable for all skin types including the most sensitive skin.

How to use:

Apply once per day, ideally in the PM. Can be diluted with other treatments to reduce strength until skin develops tolerance. Avoid contact with eyes. Contact of the product with the skin must be of limited frequency or duration. If irritation occurs, cease use and consult a physician. Use only as directed on unbroken skin. Patch testing prior to use is advised.
