"I recommend my clients to use Mandelic Face & Body Wash for acne, pigmentation, and anti-aging. I personally use it on my body post-workout or during hot summer days to get rid of dead cells that can get mixed with oil/sweat and cause pimples."

Powered by Mandelic Acid

This wash uses mandelic acid, a gentle alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that helps exfoliate dead skin, fade discoloration, and keep pores clear. Because it’s oil-soluble, it can also target excess oil and buildup inside the pores, making it a great option for both face and body.

Mandelic Acid

Larger molecular size AHA than glycolic or lactic acid, which allows for slower absorption and makes it ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin.

Gluconolactone

Provides mild exfoliation while also hydrating and strengthening the skin barrier, making it ideal for sensitive or reactive skin.

Grape Seed Extract

Provides strong free-radical protection, helps soothe inflammation, and supports collagen and elastin preservation in the skin.

Gentle Enough for Regular Use

While it's active and effective, Mandelic Face and Body Wash is gentle enough to use daily on most skin types. It’s especially well-suited for those who can’t tolerate stronger acids or are looking for a more even, smooth complexion over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should use Mandelic Face and Body Wash?

This product is great for anyone dealing with acne, ingrown hairs, rough texture, or dark spots on the face or body. It’s especially useful for oily or combination skin types and works well for those with body breakouts.

What’s the difference between Face Reality Mandelic Wash and Mandelic Scrub?

The wash is gentle enough for regular use and can also be used on inflamed acne since it doesn’t contain scrub particles. The scrub is better suited for non-inflamed acne like clogged pores and blackheads, as the fine beads help physically clear buildup. It’s best to avoid the scrub on inflamed breakouts, but it works well when skin needs extra help unclogging.

What makes mandelic acid different from other acids?

Mandelic acid is one of the most gentle AHAs due to its larger molecular size. It penetrates more slowly, making it ideal for sensitive, reactive, or skin of color. It also helps with oil control and post-acne marks.

Can I use it with other actives?

Yes, but be mindful of layering too many exfoliants. If you're using benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, or retinoids, space them out or alternate days to prevent over-drying. Always follow with a moisturizer and SPF.

Will it dry out my skin?

Not likely—this formula balances exfoliation with soothing botanical extracts. Still, it's important to follow with a hydrator or moisturizer to maintain barrier health, especially if you’re using it daily.
