Mandelic acid and bisabolol
Work well together
Use them together by applying the mandelic acid first and following with bisabolol, because bisabolol helps calm any irritation caused by the acid. Mandelic acid gently exfoliates the skin, while bisabolol helps soothe redness and calm the skin. If your skin feels sensitive, you can try using a gentler strength or apply the products on different nights.
