The OrdinaryDirect AcidsMandelic Acid 10% + HA 30 ml
With AHA and Hyaluronic Acid.
Mandelic Acid 10% + HA offers superficial dermal peeling that is gentler than other alpha hydroxy acids. The molecular weight of mandelic acid is 152.1 daltons which is larger than other alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic acid is 76.0 daltons, for example). This larger size allows mandelic acid to penetrate the skin more slowly which in turn makes it very gentle and suitable for all skin types including the most sensitive skin. You don't need a concentration of more than 10%, because then you would simply be achieving an indirect peeling strength that is more easily offered through lower percentages of glycolic acid.
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. 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.

Hi! According to Ordinary's guide, you can use this serum in the same routine as the niacinamide serum, but in what order should I use it? Right now, I'm doing cleansing, toner, niacinamide serum, and then moisturizer. Where does this serum fit in, and how much should I take at a time?284 viewsMaria L.
Customer service at Lyko1 monthHello there! I would recommend using this serum first after the toner and then niacinamide, finish with the cream 💖 Take care

3 monthsverified customerVery gentle but still works!
I use this mainly for ingrown hairs and discoloration. The product soothes irritation, does a great job at preventing ingrowns, and lightens hyperpigmentation gently. Definitely recommend as an alternative to harsher AHA's.38 viewsHana

i incorporated this into my routine for a few months and felt it didn’t really make any difference. i’ve struggled with sebum in the pores on my nose and thought mandelic acid could maybe do the trick since i also have dry/sensitive skin but i found it didn’t really change anything at all. the product itself is nice and light, you can mix it into your moisturizer or apply directly on the skin. no noticeable scent, not too greasy.26 views
