Taurine and mandelic acid
Work well together
Use them together in the same routine by applying mandelic acid first, because they team up to keep skin soft and balanced. Mandelic acid gently smooths the surface while taurine helps keep the skin comfortably hydrated. If your skin feels sensitive, try using them on alternate nights or switch to a lower strength.
