Mandelic Mattifying Serum

Meet your matte-maker! This lightweight, mattifying gel-serum absorbs skin's surface oils to create a velvety finish, minimizing the appearance of pores and controlling shine. An 8% exfoliating blend containing Mandelic Acid and Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) helps clarify skin and improves the appearance of oily skin. Wear it underneath or over your makeup to reduce shine on your forehead and nose.

Mandelic Acid: found naturally in almonds and is a lipophilic, oil-loving Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA), making it ideal for use on oily skin. Mandelic Acid also reduces the look of oily shine over time. This is the perfect AHA for oily and blemish-prone skin types.

Gluconolactone: a Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) that is found naturally in the skin and provides antiaging and gentle exfoliating benefits without sun sensitivity. It is a welcome choice for sensitive skin types as it strengthens the skin’s moisture barrier leaving it more resilient, while also providing potent antioxidant benefits.
