I have high hopes for this product since, even though I have only used it a couple of times, I feel like it’s doing something, and it does not sting or irritate my very sensitive skin, even in the troubled area.

Can’t say I saw a huge difference in my skin, it didn’t help with my congestions. Would repurchase tbh

Mandelic acid is a go-to in my routine, it's gentle but effective, and often has little to no irritation on the skin. Due to its larger molecular size and being fat-soluble, it's the perfect choice for oily skin types in particular and often sensitive too (just bear in mind this is combined with retinol here). This penetrates the skin more slowly than a glycolic, for example, meaning there's far less irritation to the skin too.This new launch from The Inkey List was always going to be a winner for me as it combines mandelic acid and retinol together, leaving you with smooth, radiant and more even skin over time. Just on my first use of this, I woke to baby-fresh skin in the morning! With more consistent use in my evening routine, this has really started to help even out some more stubborn pigmentation and really gives me that glass-skin look! I just wish it came in a bigger size!
