Product Description
Product Description
Mandelic Acid Powder belongs to a group of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) fruit acids that are esterophilic. Compared to the common fruit acids like glycolic acid, amygdalinic acid has notable antimicrobial properties. At the same time, amygdalic acid possesses a slower transdermal penetration rate compared to common glycolic acid and lactic acid, meaning that it is substantially less irritating. Its liposolubility is increased, improving its ability to penetrate the stratum corneum. Therefore, it also has the simultaneous ability to unclog oil from pores and act as an acne treatment.
Suitable Skin Types:
Dry Skin
Firm Skin
Non-Pigmented Skin
Wrinkled Skin
Tolerant Skin
Pigmented Skin
Oily Skin
Product Introduction
Mandelic Acid Powder is a white crystalline fruit acid with high molecular weight and lipophilicity. Compared with common glycolic acid, it has superior antibacterial capabilities. Its penetration rate is slower, delivering milder action with significantly reduced irritation. With increased fat solubility and heightened ability to penetrate the stratum corneum, it provides effective brightening and whitening benefits—making it an exceptional choice for improving overall skin health and cosmetic appearance.

Product Functions
1. Promotes Gentle Exfoliation of the Skin:
Mandelic Acid Powder penetrates deep into pores to break down and eliminate dead skin cells, excess sebum, and impurities. This action stimulates cell renewal, visibly diminishing fine lines, wrinkles, and premature aging signs.
2. Improves Skin Texture and Skin Tone:
By stimulating collagen synthesis, Mandelic Acid enhances dermal firmness and elasticity, leaving skin softer, smoother, and revitalized.
3. Antibacterial Properties:
Its inherent antibacterial and antimicrobial actions inhibit acne-triggering bacteria, relieve inflammatory issues, regulate sebum secretion, and stop clogged pores.
Product Applications
Mandelic Acid Powder is a versatile cosmetic ingredient widely utilized across professional skincare lines. As a high-molecular-weight AHA, it ensures a much milder exfoliation compared to glycolic or lactic acids, catering perfectly to delicate and sensitive skin barriers. It is extensively applied in professional chemical peels and everyday resurfacing treatments to combat deep-seated hyperpigmentation and fine lines.
1. Exfoliation
Mechanism: Dissolves cohesive bonds between superficial dead cells to facilitate natural desquamation.
Benefits: Renews skin texture, brightens tone, and reduces dullness.
Gentle Action: Larger molecular mass ensures slow, steady dermal penetration without acute stinging.

Gentle Action: Larger molecular mass ensures slow, steady dermal penetration without acute stinging.
2. Acne Treatment
Anti-bacterial: Suppresses acne-causing microbes.
Sebum Control: Normalizes lipid production, minimizing pore congestions.
Non-Irritating: Ideal for reactive, acne-prone skin types.

Non-Irritating: Ideal for reactive, acne-prone skin types.
3. Hyperpigmentation & Brightening
Inhibits abnormal melanin deposition, clearing sun spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory erythema (PIH) to achieve balanced skin tone.
4. Anti-Aging
Stimulates dermal fibroblasts to synthesize new collagen, optimizing dermal thickness, firming elasticity, and diminishing wrinkles.
5. Hydration Support
By clearing compacted keratin layers, it significantly facilitates deeper absorption and performance of secondary moisturizers.
6. Treatment Preparation
Preconditions the epidermis to safely amplify the transdermal delivery of potent actives such as retinoids and stabilized Vitamin C.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q Why is Mandelic Acid milder than Glycolic Acid?
Mandelic acid has a significantly larger molecular structure than glycolic acid. This allows it to penetrate skin layers at a slower, more uniform rate, significantly reducing the stinging sensation and irritation commonly associated with smaller AHA molecules.
Q How does Mandelic Acid help acne-prone and oily skin?
Because it is lipophilic (fat-soluble), Mandelic Acid can effectively penetrate sebum-rich pores to break down debris, kill acne-causing microbes with its natural antibacterial properties, and normalize excess oil production.
Q Can Mandelic Acid Powder be formulated for sensitive skin?
Yes. Due to its gentle resurfacing action and non-aggressive penetration, it is widely utilized for sensitive, reactive, and post-acne skin conditions where traditional AHAs cannot be tolerated.
Q What are the standard packaging and shelf life conditions?
The product is supplied in standard 25kg/Drums with inner plastic or aluminum foil bags. When stored in sealed original containers away from direct heat and moisture, it offers a shelf life of 24 months.
Q What safety and quality certifications does this DL-Mandelic Acid carry?
Our DL-Mandelic Acid Powder maintains an assay grade of ≥99.0% and complies fully with Non-GMO, Non-irradiation, Allergen-free, and TSE/BSE-free standards, making it safe for global cosmetic and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
