Neostrata Mandelic Clarifying Cleanser is a dermatologist-developed face wash designed to deeply cleanse, refine pores, and smooth uneven skin.
Formulated with mandelic acid and gentle surfactants, it helps lift away impurities, excess oil, and dead skin cells without stripping the skin barrier. This lightweight, non-drying formula is ideal for oily, acne-prone, and combination skin types.
Regular use of Neostrata Mandelic Clarifying Cleanser helps minimize congestion, smooth texture, and leave the skin feeling refreshed and clarified. It’s soap-free and suitable for daily use, even on sensitive or breakout-prone skin.
