Ingredients such as glycolic acid offer incredible resurfacing powers, dissolving the bonds that bind dead, dulling cells to your skin to uncover the smooth, even radiance beneath. However, this can cause irritation – enter, mandelic acid. A gentler ‘peeling’ member of the alpha hydroxy acid family, it penetrates the skin more slowly, making it milder and better suited to sensitive complexions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlpha hydroxy acids are a well-established skin care hero. Ingredients such a glycolic, lactic and malic acid are renowned for their ability to dissolve the skin’s dulling ‘stratum corneum’ (the oldest, thinnest, top layer of skin) and reveal the younger, more radiant cells beneath. However, these potent acids can irritate skin, especially sensitive complexions – and that’s where The Ordinary’s Mandelic Acid 10% + HA comes in. This innovative formulation offers superficial dermal peeling (that’s exfoliation to you and me) that is gentler than other alpha hydroxy acid formulations. How is it gentler, you ask? Simple – the molecular weight of mandelic acid is larger than that of other alpha hydroxy acids and this larger size means that it penetrates the skin more slowly. This makes for a milder exfoliating experience that will suit even the most sensitive complexions, leaving skin smoother, more even and gorgeously glowing. The Ordinary’s (characteristically ingenious) formulation also includes hyaluronic acid, to hydrate and comfort skin while plumping away the look of fine lines. A must-have for sensitive, reactive skin types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePropanediol, Aqua (Water), Mandelic Acid, Glycerin, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit\/Leaf Extract, Pentylene Glycol, Polysorbate 20, Sodium Hydroxide, Ethylhexylglycerin, 1,2-Hexanediol, Caprylyl Glycol\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApply once per day, ideally in the PM.
