Smooth, Clear Skin from Head to Toe

Face Reality Mandelic Face and Body Scrub is a dual-action exfoliator that unclogs pores, removes buildup, and improves texture. Designed for acne-prone skin, it works well on both the face and body, especially areas like the back, shoulders, and chest. Massage a small amount into clean, damp skin, then rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry.

"If you struggle with clogged pores, blackheads, uneven tone or texture, Face Reality Mandelic Face & Body Scrub is a great option. It is made for non-inflamed acne like blackheads and whiteheads, not for red, inflamed breakouts, because scrubbing inflamed skin makes it more irritated. We especially like recommending it after workouts or on hot summer days when your skin feels congested."

Exfoliates Gently Yet Effectively

This scrub combines ultra-fine cellulose beads with mandelic acid, an AHA known for being gentle on sensitive and diverse skin types. It helps fade discoloration, smooth rough patches, and prevent future breakouts without causing irritation or clogging pores. Gluconolactone adds mild exfoliation while hydrating and strengthening the skin barrier.

Mandelic Acid

Larger molecular size AHA than glycolic or lactic acid, which allows for slower absorption and makes it ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin.

Gluconolactone

Provides mild exfoliation while also hydrating and strengthening the skin barrier, making it ideal for sensitive or reactive skin.

Cellulose Beads

Biodegradable microspheres that provide gentle mechanical exfoliation without harming the environment or microtearing the skin.

Designed for Acne-Prone Skin

This formula is non-comedogenic and acne-safe, with fine cellulose beads that exfoliate without being abrasive. It is ideal for those dealing with body acne, keratosis pilaris, or stubborn congestion that does not respond to cleansers alone. It is designed for non-inflamed breakouts rather than inflamed acne, and works well after workouts or on hot summer days.

A Weekly Reset for Your Skin

Use Mandelic Face and Body Scrub one to three times a week to keep skin feeling smooth, clear, and refreshed. It is a great addition to any acne regimen, especially when breakouts are paired with buildup or dull texture. Its biodegradable cellulose beads provide gentle mechanical exfoliation without microtearing the skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between Face Reality Mandelic Face & Body Scrub and Acne Face & Body Scrub?

The Mandelic Scrub uses mandelic acid plus gentle beads to smooth skin, fade pigment, and unclog poresβ€”perfect for non-inflamed acne and uneven tone. The Acne Scrub has benzoyl peroxide, which makes it more drying and better suited for oily or combination skin with inflamed breakouts.

Can I use this on my face and body?

Yes. It’s designed to be used on both areas. Many people use it on the face, back, chest, shoulders, or armsβ€”wherever breakouts or rough texture are a concern.

How often should I use it?

Start with 1–2 times a week. If your skin tolerates it well, you can increase to 3 times weekly. Avoid using it on the same day as other exfoliants or benzoyl peroxide unless directed by a skincare professional.

Is it okay for sensitive skin?

Mandelic acid is one of the most gentle AHAs, but since this scrub also includes physical exfoliants, it may be too much for very sensitive or inflamed skin. Always patch test and use with care if your skin barrier is compromised.

What’s the difference between Mandelic Face & Body Scrub and Mandelic Face & Body Wash?

The Mandelic Wash can be used more often and is safe for inflamed acne, since it doesn’t have scrub particles. The Mandelic Scrub is better for non-inflamed acne because the gentle beads physically help unclog pores and smooth texture.
