Brighten and refine your complexion with The Ordinary Mandelic Acid 10%, a solution that provides superficial dermal peeling gentler than other Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs).
With a larger molecular weight than other AHAs (152.1 daltons compared to Glycolic Acid's 76.0 daltons), Mandelic Acid penetrates slower into skin, which provides a gentler experience and makes it suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive skin. Helping to brighten and unify, the formula will promote a fresh and refined-looking complexion.
Free from alcohol, oil, silicones, nuts and gluten.
Not tested on animals. Cruelty free and vegan.
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. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a physician. Use only as directed. Contact of the product with the skin must be of limited frequency or duration.
This product contains an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards.

Perfect skin staple
Now a staple of my skin care every night! I love this product, within a couple of weeks of using colleagues were saying how much better my skin looked, I cannot be without it now!

Really good acid for sensitive skin
I ruined my skin barrier with testing all types of different acids in skincare. This one is very mild and does not irritate my skin and actually works well. Does have a slight sting when you have more sensitive areas but nothing like the usual AHA-acids.

Worth the money
My skin was a bit sensitive to it at first but as part of a nightly routine, I do see the difference it makes to my complexion after 2 weeks of use! Will be repurchasing and continuing to use

Ok
It helped fade my post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation but didn’t help my dark spots due to sun damage. I didn’t like texture. Left my skin greasy.

A nice treatment for the skin
This is a nice serum that after use leaves your skin feeling smooth and soft. I purchased it again after having a sample in a beauty box , I use about 2-3 times a week after cleansing. I would recommend trying it out

Not sure what it does
can leave the face quite oily but currently using it as part of my night time cleansing routine and feels a bit bitty when I am rubbing it in which would suggest it is doing it’s job.

Gentle exfoliant
This is absolutely beautiful, I use this once or twice a week on an evening, and my skin is so fresh the next morning, 100% buying again when I run out :)
