Mandelic Acid Radiance Serum

Refine skin texture & tone

$75.00

The Mandelic Acid Radiance Serum is a daily treatment that promotes cellular turnover, which addresses photo-aging, fine lines, acne, dark spots and overall skin texture. Derived from the bitter almond, Mandelic acid is a gentle yet highly effective alpha hydroxy acid (AHA).

Mandelic Acid Radiance Serum is formulated to gently exfoliate, dissolve and breakdown the tiny bonds between dull dead skin cells that sit on the skin’s surface. Over time, a brighter and more radiant complexion is unveiled.

Gentle enough for everyday use, the formula:

  • Refines skin texture and tone
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Helps unclog pores and remove blackheads
  • Inhibits dark spots and helps uneven skin tone

Reviews

Obsessed

"I accidentally bought this instead of the retinol serum but it doesn’t even matter because I’m so obsessed. I have mild acne and am in my 30s, it’s extremely frustrating. After one night of this my skin was literally SO soft and my pores were smaller in size. Plus, my acne seems to be completely at bay since I’ve started using this. Said goodbye to my dermatologist super harsh peel pads and now use this. It’s also gentle enough where I can use it every night with no irritation."

Meredith (5/5)

A favorite in my skin care routine!

"My sensitive skin loves this formula. It provides gentle exfoliation and I wake in the morning with baby smooth skin. I have bought it on repeat!"

Malena R. (5/5)

An excellent skin refiner that leaves skin so soft!

"A fabulous product that refines my combination, sensitive skin gently and effectively. I use this on repeat!"

Malena R. (5/5)

Results Fast

"This serum is fantastic! Have been using it for a couple weeks now and love the results so far; it does brighten your skin. The smell is not overwhelming and you only need a pump and a half for face and neck. The only issue is that it is a little sticky, but I use it at night so it’s not a real problem. I highly recommended this serum."

Nicole W. (5/5)

My Favorite!

"This is my favorite Colleen Rothschild product and I have tried almost everything. It’s truly amazing. My skin is smoother and the texture is better when I use this fabulous product. I use it after my morning cleansing and then add Vitamin C and one of the moisturizing products. Love it!"

JGU (5/5)

Favorite serum

"This is my favorite serum because it massages so nicely into my skin. Perfect to layer with my moisturizer. Leaves my skin with a nice glow."

Kathleen M. (5/5)

This is a new product

"This is a new product that I have incorporated into my skincare routine at night. Its helped my overall completion. Its not to sticky or heavy and feels good going on the skin. I have only been using for a couple of weeks, but excited to see more results."

Chasity S. (5/5)

Great product

"Love this! I haven’t noticed a change in pores but my skin feels smooth!"

Sara O. (5/5)

Perfect

"I use this in my evening routine. Smoothes surface skin, helps turn over skin cells. My esthetician noticed a difference in skin pores. A win."

Q&A

I have the mandelic acid serum and was wondering if I should use the vitamin C with it, or alternate or use one in morning and one in evening?
Hi Linda! Don't use these two together, we would recommend using the Vitamin C in the morning and the Mandelic at night.
Is this supposed to be a creamy or oily consistency? Mine started out oily but seems to be thick now. Thank you.
Hi Christina! It really isn't either. It is a serum, so it has more of a silky texture.
After it’s absorbed do I then use the face oil #9 or moisturizer? I purchased the oil but if I need moisturizer instead I can exchange it. I haven’t opened the face oil yet.
Hi Denise! Yes, after the Mandelic Acid Radiance Serum is when you will use a moisturizer. If you have drier skin we recommend mixing our Face Oil No9 and Extreme Recovery Cream.
Hi- I have used both this and the pads . I am trying to decide what the difference between the 2 really are besides the delivery form. They seem to have similar results on me, but since I’ve used both - hard to tell. Can you tell me the main differences between the 2 and what you’d use each for that’s different than what you’d get from the other? Thank you!
Hi Denise! Thank you for your question. The results from both may be similar. The Mandelic Acid Radiance Serum is an AHA that comes from almonds. It helps with brightness, texture and cell turnover. Our Glycolic Acid Radiance pads have similar effects, but with a different AHA acid. Overall Mandelic Acid is a bit gentler and good for sensitive skin types. It can typically be tolerated nightly.
Is this non-comedogenic?
Hi Dawn, yes they are!
