Naturium Mandelic Topical Acid 12% - 1 fl oz

I don’t have enough words to describe what this product has done to my skin!!! This mandelic acid has kept my breakouts under control and post acne hyperpigmentation as well.

I’ve bought about 8 of these bottles. I use it morning and night, about 2 pumps and it has so significantly improved my acne. I went from like 10-15 lesions to 3 maximum. I can’t recommend this enough. Iwork in skincare and NEVER buy products because I get so many for free. This is the one product I buy again and again. Naturium I swear to god if you discontinue this I will riot. Also, pls make this in a jumbo size!!!

I just purchased my 4th bottle & have been very consistent with using this product daily. This is the best product for reducing pigmentation. It’s worth purchasing for the price alone, but you have to be consistent to see results. Overall it reduced my pigmentation and acne scaring & reduced breakouts. They also repackaged, so now there is an easy pump dispenser vs the dropper.

I like how quickly this product absorbs into my skin. It makes my skin smooth and evens it out. I’ve used other mandelic acid products, and this works as well as the more expensive products, maybe even better. I’ve struggled with acne for a long time, and this is part of my anti-acne routine. It’s gentle on my skin and prevents breakouts. I can use it with other anti-acne products, like salicylic acid, without drying out my skin. I have the most sensitive skin in the world, but my skin loves this stuff. Start out with 2-3 pumps once a day and let it sink in for 15 minutes before putting on your moisturizer. I use it twice a day and it’s been great. Mandelic acid is derived from almonds, so I don’t know if you can use this if you’re allergic. And I don’t think this stuff smells bad like some other reviews say. But this stuff can smell like almost anything and I’d still use it because of how effective it is. I can’t speak to any anti-aging effects because I don’t use it for that. Highly recommend.

It smells SO bad. And not like a subtle, go away after a few minutes, smell. It's a lingering, potent, i need to write a review about it, smell. Two stars because, so far it doesn't break me out and is a gentle enough exfoliator to use on days after my retinoid. The jury is still out on whether or not I can get past the smell enough to use it consistently enough to see results. More to follow.

Excited about the rapid improvement in a week. I alternate this product with retinoic acid at night. And I use the tranexamic acid serum also each morning. Hyperpigmentation already fading and my skin is much brighter!

Makes skin feel so soft in the morning. It isn't sticky and doesn't leave any kind of residue. Super nice!

It is amazing at clearing up texture, tiny bumps and giving you an overall glow. Also gentle enough to use everyday

I had no business trying a new exfoliate. As soon as it touch my skin I noticed a tingly sensation I waited for at least a minute or two to see if it would stop then I instantly started to notice white patches on my skin appearing. It wasn’t for me. But it may work for others. I think this is to strong for my skin.

I was advised my esthetician to switch from using salicylic acid to Mandelic because my skin was dehydrated. And since I am acne prone she told me Mandelic had similar effects as salicylic. So I switch my Naturium salicylic to the Mandelic. So far I really like it. Has not irritated my skin and have not had any breakouts. I have noticed though that a lot of my milia have gone away since starting the Mandelic.

Helped with my acne, skin texture and pigmentation. After I included in my night routine, my acnes don’t stand a chance, and healing process after having them is way better and smoother. I used to have a darker spot for months after a big acne and now, besides the fact that I don’t get those anymore, the ones I get don’t leave that mark for more than 1 week.

I cannot really explain how much I love this serum. I have acne-prone, combination skin that leans toward the more oily side. I purchased this in combination with the Creamy Double Cleanse Duo and have seen better results than anything I’ve tried in the past. My oiliness is completely under control - COMPLETELY, and the brightness I see in my skin is a huge bonus that I didn’t expect. I’ve never experienced that in my life. I typically break out on my lower cheeks and jawline and I’ve had only one very minor breakout since using these products. I also use the cleansers once a day on my chest to combat my chest acne (caused from heat/irritation from oil/sweat and friction), and now my chest is clear and bright and soft! The redness throughout my face and chest is also gone! I will continue to purchase this!!!

Gives a nice glow when used at night. I use every other night, alternating with Retinoid. Would have liked more instructions on use.

This product is excellent my skin is crystal clear At 43 I have combo skin, occasional blemish, no lines yet. My concerns are aging and pores plus I want an even skin tone. This has made my skin amazing! I use this with the HA serum first and my skin never gets dried out or irritated. This serum is my favorite because one the Mandelic acid % is perfect and I love that it has nicinamide and other excellent skincare ingredients. I love the science articles on this site. I just love how's there's so much knowledge. Naturium is a fantastic skincare brand that I'm totally in love with.

I really like this. It’s gentle yet highly effective on blemishes. It started to peel a pimple I squeezed and it’s healing up really fast

I’m the type of person that’s more sensitive to salicylic acid, so this has been a great alternative! I’ve noticed that my post-acne marks are also less noticeable since I’ve started using this product

I tried out this product after being swayed by the internet haha but unfortunately, it didn’t mesh with my sensitive skin. It created a lot of redness for me so I discontinued use.

Haven’t seen changes yet but Img going to continue using

Great for those with sensitive skin looking to clear out your pores. I have really sensitive skin. I can no longer use Salicylic Acid. This is what i use now. It's amazing. During the winter though I'm sticking with the PHA, and may just use this once a week or every other week as i have acne prone skin but sensitive skin as well.

I have used hydroquinone for a long time and this fades spots better than any high end hydroquinone formula I’ve ever used. I have acne scars and sun spots and both have faded significantly more with this product than clinical hydroquinone products I have used in the past.
