Fit by skin type
General, ingredient-based — not your personalized match.
See how this fits your skin
Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testThis skin-renewing essence contains 20% of four types of acids: Mandelic, Gluconolactone (PHA), Glycolic, and Lactic Acid. These acids powerfully and effectively remove dead skin cells and regenerate the skin safely and gently at home. This helps reduce wrinkles and roughness, resulting in firmer, brighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. SUITABLE FOR: ◾ Skin prone to acne, roughness, and dullness. ◾ Skin with post-acne PIE and PIH hyperpigmentation. ◾ Aging skin with wrinkles. ◾ Dry skin. TEXTURE: Lightly viscous, milky white, easily absorbed into the skin. SAFETY LEVEL: pH 3.0 - 3.5
Mandelic Glow Overnight Glow Resurfacing Multi-Acid Peeling Solution is a lightweight treatments from Zakka Naturals, a brand based in Vietnam. The formula is built mainly around hydration, brightening and tone and cell renewal. The ingredient list runs to 36 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. Hydration is handled by Betaine, Glycerin and Propanediol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Betaine, Glycerin, Propanediol and Butylene Glycol.
Brightening: High. Ingredients that act on uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks, and here that comes from Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate, Mandelic Acid, Lactic Acid and Gluconolactone.
Cell renewal: High. Retinoids, acids and enzymes that speed surface turnover, and here that comes from Mandelic Acid, Lactic Acid, Gluconolactone and Glycolic Acid.
On richness alone it suits Balanced, Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control and firmness signalling. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after toner, before moisturiser. Apply to clean, dry skin and give it a minute to absorb before the next layer. Introduce one new treatment at a time so you can identify what is working.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list
Scored on how rich or light the formula reads from its INCI order.
