mandelic acid is paired with hops to brighten and green tea to soothe skin irritations in this active exfoliating cleanser. avoid using this directly on the eyes, as this can cause irritation, and watch for dryness which can occur with any active product.
we typically recommend this cleanser for clients that have skin that is very inflamed, oily, has razor irritation from shaving, or those with malessezia folliculitis (aka "fungal" acne).

A cocktail for your skin: alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) is paired with hops, and green tea to clean, clarify and rejuvenate skin all over the face and body. Hops work to brighten, green tea antioxidants soothe skin irritations, and mandelic acid works to minimize the appearance of pores while exfoliating and brightening the skin. This potent ingredient combination leaves skin on the face or on any spot on the body feeling fresh and looking rejuvenated.

Use once a day to start. If tolerated, increase frequency to 2x/day or as directed by your skin specialist.
Apply to moistened skin. Massage in a circular motion on face, scalp or other areas of the body. Work into a rich lather for 15 seconds. Rinse with lukewarm water.
Don’t forget to apply SPF during the day, as skin will be sensitive to the sun from the exfoliating effects of Mandelic acid.
