Mandelic Salicylic Acid Peel
Mandelic acid belongs to the Alpha-hydroxy Acid group and therefore is closely related to glycolic, lactic, and malic acids. Alpha-hydroxy acids are water soluble and certainly most mandelic acid preparations are water based. Uniquely however mandelic acid is also soluble in alcohol.
Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid and is insoluble in water. Most salicylic acid peels are alcohol based.
Due to it’s unique property of being soluble in both water and alcohol we can blend mandelic and salicylic acid together and create a peel with the benefits of both.

I love this product. I don’t remember how I found his website. But it’s a holy grail for me, I’ve got the moisturisers, their face peels and toners. They all do what they claimed in the descriptions. Their peels especially, quite amazing works quickly and gently. Tingling happens but there are acids in the peels so it’s inevitable. My first purchase was mandelic acid which worked great on its own but I wanted something stronger so I got Salicylic peel. I came back to top up and I noticed they made a peel combining both. Love it as I no longer had to switch what peel I would do every week.

I like this peel – November, 22 I got my order and I used it every week. on a Sunday I carried out the peel. I didn’t get an excessive amount of peeling the 1st month but the next month’s worth of peels there is more visible peeling. I smoke so my lip and chin and neck area showed the most skin shedding. but I have noticed my blemishes and higher pigmentation and texture, the under evenness the spots … changed all around my face and neck no lie the makeup applies smoother and less oily. I think it’s working. the only thing is that I put it in a shot glass and I use a mask or peel brush, it drys out so quickly in the glass and the brush takes the product, so you have to move quickly. I don’t like using it on cotton pads either. I got 25% and it tingled and burning sensation but I didn’t burn my skin. I going to try it on my chest, back and shoulder for my acne scars and try a different one on my face.
