8% L-Mandelic Serum

Refine, resurface, and brighten your skin with the Face Reality 8% L-Mandelic Serum. This advanced AHA serum features a carefully balanced blend of 8% L-mandelic acid and 4% L-lactic acid, offering gentle but effective exfoliation that helps diminish the appearance of discoloration, clogged pores, and texture—without the harshness of stronger acids.

Because L-mandelic acid has a larger molecular structure than many other AHAs, it penetrates more slowly and evenly, making it ideal for acne-prone, sensitive, or textured skin.  The lactic acid addition not only boosts exfoliation but also adds a hydrating component to keep your skin soft and balanced. 

To support skin health while gently resurfacing, this formula also includes niacinamide, which helps improve skin tone, build the skin barrier, and provide antioxidant support. The result? A water-based, professional-grade exfoliating serum that clarifies pores, fades hyperpigmentation, and supports a radiant, smoother-looking complexion. 

Recommended for clients who are ready to graduate from lower-strength exfoliants (like 5% Mandelic Serum) or who need a gentle yet effective AHA for breakouts, texture, or pigmentation. Use this serum under the guidance of a trained esthetician to safely and effectively support your skin’s renewal process.
