Description
Infinity ingredients is the UK distributor of Vegan CDS Mandelic from INdermal.
AHA derived from Almonds. It has twice the molecular weight of glycolic acid and consequently is less skin penetrative and causes less irritation. It is apt for use on moderately sensitive skins and accelerates the renewal of the stratum corneum.
Encapsulation into the nanovesicles maintains the Mandelic acid at a low pH level until the point of delivery. It facilitates formulations at any pH level without the encapsulated acid dissociating. Smaller dose of acid is required to obtain the same amount of non-dissociated acid in the stratum corneum.
Selective delivery of the active ingredient in the stratum corneum to ensure a higher concentration at that level. The gradual delivery of the acid ensures a more sustainable skin renewal action.
