The formulation is intended to provide a milder, slower exfoliation experience than many AHAs, while supporting skin hydration and minimizing irritation risk. It’s packaged in a 1 fl oz dropper bottle ideal for evening use as part of a targeted skincare routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this serum improve skin clarity and texture?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMandelic acid works by loosening dead surface cells to help reveal fresher skin underneath. Because its molecules are larger than some other AHAs, it tends to penetrate more gradually, which can reduce the abruptness of exfoliation and promote a more even visual result over time. Regular use can help smooth irregularities and minimize the appearance of uneven pigmentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10% mandelic acid concentration for gradual surface exfoliation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarger molecular weight promotes slower, more even action\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTargets texture, bumps, and signs of uneven tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the serum keep my skin hydrated while exfoliating?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — hyaluronic acid in multiple molecular weights helps attract and hold moisture at different skin depths, so the product supports hydration during exfoliation. The lightweight, water-based vehicle absorbs quickly without feeling heavy or greasy, making it suitable for layered routines where moisture balance matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMulti-weight hyaluronic acid for surface and deeper hydration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWater-based texture that layers easily with creams or oils\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps maintain skin comfort while renewing surface cells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this serum suitable for sensitive skin and how does it reduce irritation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe formula includes Tasmanian Pepperberry extract, an ingredient used for its calming properties to help reduce irritation commonly associated with exfoliation. Combined with mandelic acid’s slower penetration, the product is positioned as friendlier to sensitive skin than higher-strength, fast-acting acids. Still, patch testing and gradual introduction are recommended for those with highly reactive skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTasmanian Pepperberry extract to help soothe and calm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGentler AHA choice compared with smaller-molecule acids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRecommended patch test and stepwise build-up of frequency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow and when should I include it in my skincare routine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply once daily in the evening after cleansing and before heavier treatments or moisturizers. Use a few drops and spread evenly; follow with a hydrating cream if desired.

This serum is suited to anyone seeking a gentler chemical exfoliant to refine skin texture and tone while maintaining hydration — especially those with combination, dry, or sensitive skin who want exfoliation without aggressive irritation. It also works well for users new to AHAs who prefer a gradual approach. If you have very reactive skin conditions or are using prescription actives, consult a skincare professional before adding this product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\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\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use this every night?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Many people use it nightly; start with a few times per week and increase as tolerated.
