By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid Gentle Exfoliating Toner - 5.07 fl oz

Product Overview

The By Wishtrend Mandelic Acid Gentle Exfoliating Toner is a carefully formulated skincare essential designed to deliver mild yet effective exfoliation. With a 5% concentration of mandelic acid—an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) derived from bitter almonds—this toner works to gently dissolve dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote a more even skin tone. Unlike harsher AHAs, mandelic acid has a larger molecular size, allowing it to work more slowly and gently on the skin's surface, making it suitable for those with sensitive or reactive skin. This 5.07 fl oz (150 ml) toner comes in a convenient pump bottle, ensuring easy and hygienic application.

Key Features and Benefits

• Gentle Exfoliation: Mandelic acid at 5% provides effective exfoliation without the redness or irritation often associated with glycolic or lactic acid. It helps to smooth rough texture and refine pores.
• Pore Care: By removing excess oil and debris from pores, this toner helps minimize their appearance and reduces the likelihood of blackheads and breakouts.
• Brightening Effect: Regular use helps fade post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and dark spots, revealing a more radiant and even complexion.
• Hydrating Formula: Enriched with moisturizing ingredients like glycerin and panthenol, it maintains skin hydration and supports the skin barrier.
• Non-Irritating: The low pH formula respects the skin's natural acid mantle, and the mild nature of mandelic acid makes it suitable for daily use, even for sensitive skin types.

How to Use

After cleansing, dispense a small amount of toner onto a cotton pad or into the palms of your hands. Gently sweep over the entire face, avoiding the eye area. Use once daily in the evening, or as tolerated. For best results, follow with a serum and moisturizer. If you are new to AHAs, start with 2–3 times per week and gradually increase frequency. Always apply sunscreen during the day, as exfoliating acids can increase sun sensitivity.

Who It Is For

This toner is ideal for those with sensitive, combination, oily, or acne-prone skin looking for a gentle chemical exfoliant. It is also suitable for individuals seeking to improve skin texture, minimize pores, and address mild hyperpigmentation without harsh side effects. Beginners to acids will find this a perfect starting point due to its mild nature.
