This serum is AMAZING! It really delivers! I use it on my skin, which is in pretty good condition and have already seen and felt results after only one week. I also have my husband use it, who suffers from sun damage and face and scalp, and his results are even better. The top of his head, yes he’s bald, is much smoother and the hp is already noticeably lighter. (Having said all of this, we have used serums and resurfaces, so don’t have dead skin buildup. I also use “Prequel “ on him prior to this serum to remove any surface oils.). Highly recommend this product! Review: Worth it for the price! It’s effective - Im giving this 5 stars, despite the unpleasant odor bc it was extremely effective after one use! I must admit I was disappointed bc this specific serum was listed as an “at home chemical peel” but is really just a serum that you slap on and move about your day. No peeling or washing off required. I was apprehensive before purchase bc I read so many bad reviews complaining about the “strong cinnamon odor that’s so bad”. I was expecting a stinky punch in the face, but I didn’t get that. It’s more of a wafting, vague unpleasant odor. I’d describe it like “hmm I don’t smell anything bad” and then *sniff sniff* “what smell is that? I can’t place it. Is it this stuff?” It’s almost like a dried glue smell… That said, my partner told me “your forehead looks smoother”, and she was right. I used it the last 2 nights in a row and only had a very mild burning sensation, like sunburn. Definitely worth it for the price alone, and the effectiveness. Best $20 I’ve ever spent on serums tbh. For those interested: I have KP which gives my cheeks a bumpy texture; mild wrinkles mainly on my forehead (35yo ww) and dry skin in my t-zone. My skin is noticeably softer and smoother. I’ll update if this changes! ## Features - ANTI-AGING, RADIANT COMPLEXION: Our skin perfecting, leave-on acid gently exfoliates skin to target the look of fine lines and the appearance of blemishes and photoaging - INNOVATIVE FORMULA: Our formula contains Mandelic Acid, a slow penetrating alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), which prevents skin irritation while stimulating collagen production - DEVELOPED FOR ALL SKIN TYPES: Perfect for sensitive, dry, acne prone, aging, and combination skin to be used a few times a week.

For hyperpigmentation, try a combo product with kojic acid, licorice root, azelaic acid and niacinamide. **Q: can i use this on my neck?** A: Yes, but approach with caution. Neck skin is very thin compared to face and chest skin. **Q: After I shave my head, I am left with darker areas where my hair would grow. Will this help with lightening or removing said area?** A: I would suggest getting something specifically for your head. I can only comment on how the results left my face since that is what it is intended for. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic serum for the $$ *by D***L on April 12, 2026* As a retired esthetician, I’m super critical when it comes to product results.

I use it maybe three times a week and especially if I see a pimple forming. It knocks the from completely forming and goes away usually overnight if I apply it as soon as I see a spot. Overall highly recommend for those with aging skin, rosacea and occasional pimples. ## Frequently Bought Together - Naturium Mandelic Topical Acid 12%, Plus Niacinamide & Natural Fruit Acids, Anti-Aging Skin Care, 1 oz - The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%, Smoothing Serum for Blemish-Prone Skin --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/228928876-mandelic-topical-acid-12](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/228928876-mandelic-topical-acid-12) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
