Getting an exfoliant for your skincare routine can be tricky with all the options available.
Let’s review the mandelic acid + 10% HA from @revoxb77 to see if it’s worth it for you!
Save this for later 🤗

~ Slight scent but no fragrance
~ 30ml and comes in a dark bottle with white, black and grey inscriptions.
~ Consistency is between thick & runny
~ Feels sticky on application but dries off after a while.
~ Directions are written on the bottle and I love that!

💚𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀

Contains mandelic acid(exfoliant) sodium hyaluronate(hydrating), triamethanolamine (balances pH), among a few others

💚𝗠𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲

This was my first time trying mandelic acid so I was really curious how it would perform.
I started use in June but had to stop for 2 weeks after microblading my brows.
Then I resumed and used on alternate nights.
The directions recommend using at night and on dry skin and I followed those.

💚 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁
I noticed my face felt less textured the next morning after my use.
Unfortunately, it didn’t give me the experience I’ve had with other exfoliants like salicylic acid. I’m not sure if it’s because mandelic acid is better suited for dry skin or the fact that the product states “Mild exfoliation”🤔

💚 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁
If you’re starting out with exfoliants and have dry skin, then this would be a good option.

I’ll give it a 7/10 but I won’t be repurchasing 😭

If you missed the live on affordable skincare, catch up here 💚

It was so insightful and here a few highlights:
1. Work with a budget
2. Check reviews but bear in mind their skin type and other factors that may be different to yours
3. Go for bigger sized products as they last longer
4. Start with what you can afford as your situation wouldn’t always be the same.
