6% Mandelic Exfoliating Tonic

Gentle Exfoiating Tonic

Type: Tonic

SKU: 6009906306203

A leave-on exfoliating treatment tonic formulated with 6% Mandelic Acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that helps loosen the bonds between dead skin cells to refine skin texture and improve the appearance of dullness and uneven skin tone. Mandelic Acid has a relatively large molecular size compared to other commonly used AHAs, which may contribute to its more gradual skin penetration.

Enriched with Ascorbic Acid, Acetyl Glucosamine and Glutathione, the formula helps promote a brighter, more even-looking complexion, while antioxidant ingredients support the skin against oxidative stress. Glycerin, Propanediol and Hyaluronic Acid Crosspolymer help attract and retain moisture, supporting skin hydration and comfort.

With regular use, this leave-on treatment tonic helps smooth the appearance of uneven texture and promote a clearer, more radiant-looking complexion.
