Safety

Mandelic acid is a great AHA option for all skin types but is a particularly wonderful option for sensitive skin due to its gentle nature.

Sources

Mandelic acid is an exfoliating alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may be derived from bitter almonds or synthetically created. 

The Uses of Mandelic acid

Mandelic acid benefits skin primarily through exfoliation. Like other AHAs, it works to loosen the bonds between skin cells, allowing dead, dull cells to slough off and in the process, reveals radiant, healthy skin.
