BiON Mandelic 8% Serum

Mandelic 8% Serum

By BiON
Mandelic Acid has antibacterial properties, regulates sebum production to help prevent the recurrence of outbreaks, clears pores, exfoliates, and increases cell turnover. For issues of hyperpigmentation and melasma, mandelic acid breaks up discoloration caused by such things as sun damage, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), and hormones.

What makes this serum so special is that every other ingredient amplifies or compliments Mandelic Acid's properties. Azelaic Acid, Niacinamide, and Lactic Acid combine to reduce inflammation, exfoliate dead skin, increase cell turnover, strengthen collagen to reduce the appearance of fine lines, and improve skin texture and appearance.

Key Ingredients

8% Mandelic Acid
An alpha-hydroxy-acid (AHA) known for dual purpose antibacterial and exfoliating properties. This AHA is a great choice for acne, as a large molecule size shows fewer negative side effects due to slower penetration.

Azelaic Acid
A gently exfoliating, anti-inflammatory acid that unclogs the pores, reduces redness, and improves skin texture without sensitizing the skin. Excellent for all skin types, especially rosacea, acne, and hyperpigmentation.

Niacinamide
A form of vitamin B that supports epidermal barrier function and reduces trans-epidermal water loss. It helps regulate sebaceous gland secretions by inhibiting 5-alpha reductase enzyme activity while scavenging free radicals. Works to reduce redness and inflammation in acne prone skin.

Lactic Acid
A multi-functional alpha-hydroxy-acid (AHA) that loosens the bonds between keratinocyte cells, creating a gentle exfoliating effect on the skin. This form of AHA also increases hydration in the stratum corneum and has a mild tyrosinase inhibiting ability, making it suitable for compromised and hyper-pigmented skin.
