  • “Mandelic acid in general is very underrated”
  • “It does help to exfoliate, but it's way more gentle and it has a larger molecule, so it takes longer to penetrate the skin before it starts exfoliating”6:34–6:42
  • “It really is great for those that have sensitive skin, that are beginners to alpha hydroxy acids”6:42–6:50
  • “I would rather use something that is more gentle and use it every day than using maybe one product once a week because it's just too strong and my skin just gets irritated”7:07–7:12
  • “Mandelic acid is a great ingredient for skin texture, improving skin brightness, giving that softer, smoother look to the skin”7:20–7:28
  • “I love that it has hyaluronic acid to hydrate the skin. It's a very gentle hydrating formulation that is super lightweight”8:17–8:23

Brand note

The Ordinary is the brand you go to when you want active ingredients without the markup — straightforward, no-frills formulas that target specific skin concerns, and creators consistently mention the price as a major plus. The trade-off is that not everything works for everyone: the Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner is a versatile multi-purpose product (used on body, underarms, and face), but some found it ineffective or too high a concentration for certain skin tones.
