The Ordinary Mandelic Acid 10% + HA, Gentle Exfoliating Serum for Clarity and Hydration, 30ml

I kept hearing about Mandelic Acid being recommended so I decided to incorporate it into my skincare routine. I was a bit hesitant of this one as I've seen other products at a higher price with less of a percentage. However, I have been pleasantly surprised. The Ordinary packaging is minimal which I like. The glass bottle and dropper are sturdy. The only issue I have with this packaging is it being glass for traveling. The serum is a gentle exfoliating serum that is gentle enough to avoid irritation. I’ve used other acids before, but they often left my skin red and uncomfortable, so this seems like the perfect balance. I've found it does tend to run out of the dropper which can deliver more product than intended The serum feels lightweight, absorbs quickly and doesn’t feel sticky. I've been using it in a skin cycling routine every 4 days, and so far have noticed my breakouts clearing up, a reduction in new breakouts, pigmentation becoming lighter and my complexion looking more even. After the first two uses, I noticed some minimal purging but it subsided fairly quickly. I think this might be as I also incorporate Azelaic Acid and Retinal in my routine so I think it'll be different for everyone depending on your skin. The added hyaluronic acid helps keep skin hydrated, which makes it less irritating than some other exfoliants but as it's pretty mild I wouldn't expect fast or immediate results. At this price point, it’s excellent value and I intend to continue this in my routine for the foreseeable.

Great on my sensitive skin. I can use it daily with no issues and it works well to keep any breakouts at bay. Easy application and doesn't dry out my skin.

Excellent product at an affordable price.

It works well and is easy to use.

I wanted to try Mandalic as I heard it was more gentle than other acids. I am very happy with this Mandalic 10%. I use if for just 20 minutes once or twice a week in the evenings. I used it for just 10 minutes the first time, and slowly built up to 20 minutes as I have sensitive skin. Good product and good price point.

Definitely notice a huge difference to my skin when using this regularly. I have quite sensitive skin but this doesn’t irritate me at all and my skin feels so much softer since using this.

Day 3 of using this product. Yet to see some visible results. I will continue the regimen and hopefully it does what it says

My partner and I both wanted a skincare routine to stop wearing makeup and even out skin tones. This did the trick no end! We use it 3 times a week, after cleanser and then once soaked in we moisturise. You only need around 1-3 drops and it doesn’t take long to soak in. Within a couple of days my partners skin was less red areas and reduced sebum on her nose, and within a week my tone was more clear throughout. It’s not heavy or sticky at all, it feels like a light oil but it soaks in within minutes. It hasn’t dried out skin out and helps to balance it out. I really recommend this product and the fact that you need so little really helps with the value.

Love these products. So great to be able to purchase on Amazon. Gentle on your skin and works well.
