1. Lightweight, Watery Texture:
Absorbs quickly with zero stickiness — perfect for combo skin that doesn’t like heavy layers.
2. Gentle Yet Effective Exfoliation:
With 5% mandelic acid, it exfoliates slowly and gently — no burning, just smooth skin over time.
3. Balances Oil and Hydration:
Helps control excess oil in the T-zone while being non-drying for the cheeks or drier areas.
4. Helps Fade PIH and Even Skin Tone:
Over time, it can fade acne marks and improve skin clarity without harsh peeling.
5. Pairs Well with Most Routines:
Plays nicely with hydrating toners, barrier creams, and even mild actives (if spaced out).
1. Subtle Results:
If you’re used to stronger acids, you might find this one too gentle — it works gradually.
2. Not Great for Severe Texture or Stubborn Acne Alone:
May need to be paired with stronger actives or treatments if you have deep congestion.
3. Initial Purge Possible:
Like all acids, it can bring underlying pimples to the surface in the first 1-2 weeks.
4. Requires Consistency:
You have to use it regularly (2–3x/week) to really see the glow and smoother texture.
