Fig. 2 How to use it

SPF 30+ every morning
8% L-Mandelic Serum
  1. Shake well.
  2. Skin should be clean and free of irritation before applying.
  3. Apply one pump of product or amount directed.

Directions as published by Face Reality. As with any AHA, wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) every day while using it.

Mandelic is where I start clients whose skin breaks out easily and looks uneven, but who have found stronger acids too much for them. One pump on clean skin, and I ask them to give it several weeks of steady use before we judge how their skin looks. It is an AHA, so sunscreen every morning is part of the deal.
