What Is Mandelic Acid?
Mandelic Acid, also known as Amygdalinic Acid, is an alpha-hydroxy acid commonly used in cosmetic formulations. It is known for its relatively gentle exfoliating properties and is often used in brightening, smoothing and pH-balanced skincare products.
In cosmetic products, mandelic acid is frequently added to toners, serums, creams and exfoliation formulations aimed at promoting surface exfoliation, improving skin texture and supporting a brighter skin appearance.
We supply high-quality Mandelic Acid for cosmetic manufacturers worldwide. It is widely used in gentle exfoliation skincare, brightening lines and pH-adjusted formulations. We provide lab test samples, complete COA, MSDS, TDS documents and global door-to-door delivery service.

How Mandelic Acid Works In Cosmetic Formulations
Mandelic Acid functions mainly as an exfoliating agent and pH adjuster in cosmetics. It helps break down the bonds between dead skin cells, promoting gentle surface exfoliation and improving skin texture.
In brightening formulations, it can help reduce the appearance of dull skin and support a more even, radiant complexion. As a pH adjuster, it helps keep formulations within a suitable acidity range, improving product stability and skin compatibility.
The actual effect and skin tolerance may vary depending on concentration, pH level, product type and usage instructions.
