How To Use
How To Use
Cleanse
Dispense a small pump of cleanser, emulsify with a little water to create foam.
Dry skin
(Optional) You can start with your skin slightly damp or dry — either way, avoid soaking wet skin to reduce dilution.
Apply cleanser
Gently massage the foamed cleanser over your face (avoid the eye area) using circular motions for ~30–60 seconds (some sources say up to 2 minutes)
Rinse
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until all cleanser is removed.
Frequency
Begin using once daily. If your skin tolerates it, you may increase to twice daily.
Moisturize
Follow with your favorite toner/serum/moisturizer to restore hydration and support the skin barrier.
SPF is non‑negotiable
Because mandelic acid is an exfoliant, it can increase sun sensitivity. Always apply a broad‑spectrum SPF 30+ (or higher) during the day.
