About This Product:
Face Reality 8% Mandelic Acid Serum is an exfoliating treatment designed to target breakouts, clogged pores, uneven skin tone, and post-breakout dark spots.
Formulated with 8% mandelic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), this serum helps remove dead surface skin cells and improve the appearance of congestion and discoloration. Mandelic acid is known for its larger molecular size compared to glycolic acid, making it a popular exfoliating option for acne-prone skin.
This stronger concentration is best suited for skin that has already developed tolerance to exfoliating acids, rather than those just beginning an active skincare routine.

How To Use:
After cleansing and allowing your skin to dry, apply a thin layer of 8% Mandelic Acid Serum to your face, avoiding the eye area. Follow with a suitable hydrating moisturizer.
Use only as directed by your Face Reality acne specialist or skincare professional. Your recommended application frequency will depend on your skin's tolerance and current acne treatment routine.
Pro Tip: More exfoliation doesn't always mean better results! Keep your routine balanced with a gentle cleanser, hydrating serum and moisturizer to help maintain your skin barrier.
Important: Avoid combining with other exfoliating acids, scrubs, retinoids or benzoyl peroxide in the same routine unless specifically instructed by your skincare professional. Do not apply to irritated or broken skin. Use broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning.

From Mila — Why She Loves It!:
Mandelic acid is one of my favorite ingredients for acne-prone skin because it can help address both breakouts and the dark spots they leave behind! The 8% strength is a great next step for clients whose skin is already comfortable with exfoliating acids. I always recommend introducing stronger treatments thoughtfully and keeping the rest of your routine supportive and hydrating.
