Mandelic Acid: The Exfoliating Acid That’s Safe for All Skin Types 

If you’re a skincare newbie, you might be a little intimidated when you hear the word ”exfoliation.” However, making exfoliation part of your skincare routine is key to achieving the gorgeous, head-turning complexion of your dreams. 

But with all of the skincare products and devices available online, it’s often hard to separate exfoliation facts from fiction

Do you really need to exfoliate? Which type of exfoliating product should you use? Which products contain exfoliating ingredients that are safe for your particular skin type? 

Rest assured, at Introstem, we’ve got the answers to all of these questions and more. 

We’re also here to give you the inside scoop on our Stem Cell Facial Peeling with Mandelic Acid for exfoliation. It has become a game-changing addition to the skincare routines for so many customers. It’s a product that allows you to clear your skin of aging, dead skin, and buildup while deeply hydrating your complexion.

But, we’ll get into more on this exfoliating product later, so stay tuned! First, let’s take a closer look at the process of exfoliation. We’ll explore what it means, how it works, and why it should be an essential part of your skincare regimen today.

All About Exfoliation

Is a buildup of dirt, oil, and dead skin cells dulling the look of your complexion? Do you feel as though your skin never looks fresh and clean anymore? Even immediately after using your cleanser?

Your skin can suffer if your skincare routine is missing a few important steps. We’re thinking you are in need of an exfoliating product. 

The ideal product your less-than radiant skin is seeking is one with powerful yet gentle ingredients that exfoliate. By exfoliating, we mean to gently flake away that dirt, oil, and buildup that’s been aging the appearance of your skin.

When you use products that exfoliate your skin, you are sloughing off the dulling buildup of old skin cells, excess oils, and dirt and makeup for the purpose of revealing the bright-looking skin beneath underneath. 

Our favorite exfoliating product is our own Stem Cell Facial Peeling. Infused with powerful Mandelic Acid, and Vitamin E to help reinforce your skin’s glow, our exfoliating facial peel gets the job done without damaging the skin in the process.

The Benefits of Exfoliation

  • Skin Hydration – Exfoliating regularly improves your skin’s ability to hold onto moisture, leaving your skin feeling hydrated.
  • Better Product Absorption – Skin that is clean and clear at its surface is primed and ready for serums and moisturizers.
  • Radiant Skin – Exfoliating gives the skin a refreshed and brightened look. Skin that is free of dulling buildup glows.
  • Skin Feels Smoother – Getting rid of dead skin means smoothing the feel of your skin and making it appear more even. 

Before we get into the skin-loving goodness of Mandelic Acid and why it’s the ingredient you need in an exfoliating product for head-turning results, let’s take a quick peek at the two types of exfoliating products.

The Two Types of Exfoliation

There are two types of exfoliating products – chemical and physical. These two types of products work to achieve the same result – skin that is free of buildup – but they approach achieving this result by different means.

  • Physical exfoliating products – these products exfoliate using microbeads, particles, grains. We’re calling them ‘physical’ because they require physical exertion to yield results. These products exfoliate as you manually apply them on the surface layer of your skin.  
  • Chemical exfoliating products – these products use powerful ingredients, such as the gentle Mandelic Acid in our Stem Cell Facial Peeling, to remove dead skin cells, dirt, and oil. Other chemical exfoliating products contain ingredients such as salicylic and glycolic acid.

The 3 Types of Chemical Exfoliants

  • Beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs) – BHA’s are a type of acid that absorbs below the surface level of your skin and clears pores of oily buildup 
  • Polyhydroxy acids (PHAs) – PHA’s are antioxidants that work on the surface layers of your skin to deliver hydration.
  • Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) – AHAs are naturally sourced and are often found in fruit. 

How do you know which type of chemical exfoliant is gentle yet effective enough to work on your skin type?

This is an important question. For sensitive skin, in particular, it’s essential that you do your research when choosing an exfoliating aid to avoid any unpleasant side effects and ensure that you are getting an exfoliating product that will work well on your skin type.

Whether you are looking at purchasing physical or chemical exfoliating products, remember that the effectiveness and quality of the product lie in its ingredients. 

This brings us to Mandelic Acid, an AHA that is naturally sourced. It’s the exfoliating ingredient that has our customers raving. It’s nature’s own elixir for skin exfoliation and we’ve embraced it here at Introstem.

Some brands develop exfoliating products that can be harsh and abrasive to your skin, leaving you with a complexion that is exfoliated but also red, patchy, and damaged.

At Introstem, we have a special ingredient that exfoliates gently. This ingredient is featured in our Stem Cell Facial Peeling and works well on ALL skin types. That’s right – even yours!

You’ve probably already guessed that the ingredient we’re referring to is Mandelic Acid, and you’re correct.

Mandelic acid is sourced from bitter almonds. Don’t let the word ‘acid’ in its name fool you. It’s not harsh on your skin and has been found to work more gently on the skin as compared to other AHAs. It’s even safe on the most sensitive skin.

Mandelic Acid delivers targeted impactful results. Here are some benefits to using Mandelic Acid-infused products for exfoliating…

Benefits of Mandelic Acid:  

  • Exfoliates gently 
  • Gives skin a boost of radiance
  • Skin feels strengthened and more resilient
  • Fades the visibility of dark spots
  • Leaves skin looking smooth and even
  • Plumps the appearance of the skin 

With so many benefits for your skin, it’s no wonder that products containing such as our Stem Cell Facial Peeling are in high demand.
