SIMILDIET Mandelic Peel (MESOPEEL MANDELIC 50%) - 60ml

Simildiet Mesopeel Mandelic 50%: the radiance of a peel, the gentleness of mandelic acid

Dull complexion, enlarged pores, blemishes, early signs of skin laxity: Simildiet's mandelic peel addresses these common concerns with a fruit acid renowned for its tolerance. Thanks to its large molecule, mandelic acid penetrates slowly and evenly, which limits redness and the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, even on dark or reactive skin. The Spanish laboratory Simildiet adds 2% DMAE for a visible tightening effect right after the session. This is the "no downtime" peel: skin looks radiant quickly and the manufacturer states there is no photosensitizing effect. Simildiet Mandelico Peel product sheet.

Why choose Mesopeel Mandelic 50%

• High tolerance: mandelic acid is the gentlest AHA, suitable for sensitive skin, couperose-prone skin, and higher phototypes.
• Immediate tightening effect: 2% DMAE provides instant radiance and a feeling of firmness from the first session.
• Antibacterial action: useful for oily, blemish-prone skin, mandelic acid regulates sebum and purifies pores.
• Year-round use: no photosensitizing effect according to the manufacturer, ideal for preparation or maintenance between more intensive treatments.
• Economical format: 60 ml allows for many sessions, with a 12-month shelf life after opening.

Application protocol

1. Cleanse and thoroughly degrease the skin for even penetration.
2. Apply a thin, even layer with a brush or pad, avoiding mucous membranes.
3. Leave on for 3 to 10 minutes depending on tolerance and desired result, monitoring the skin's reaction.
4. Neutralize with a neutralizing solution, such as GleySy Neutralizer Intense, then rinse thoroughly with water.
5. Apply a repairing treatment and SPF 50 sun protection.

As a course, sessions are usually spaced 1 to 2 weeks apart, for a total of 4 to 6 sessions depending on the goal. Follow the instructions provided with the product.

Observed results

In a randomized trial published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology (2020), 50 patients with mild to moderate blemishes received six sessions of a 45% mandelic acid peel or a 30% salicylic acid peel, two weeks apart. Both peels showed comparable efficacy, with the mandelic peel working better on inflammatory lesions, with higher tolerance and fewer side effects. Dayal et al., 2020 (PubMed). Another comparative study observed a reduction of over 95% in pustules after 12 weeks with a salicylic-mandelic peel. Sarkar et al., 2019 (PMC). Results vary depending on skin type and number of sessions.

Good to know

For external use only: avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes, and do not apply to broken or irritated skin. A temporary tingling during application is normal; daily sun protection is recommended during the course.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference with a glycolic peel?

Glycolic acid, with its small molecule, penetrates quickly and may sting or cause more redness. Mandelic acid, being larger, acts more gradually: it is better tolerated, less irritating, and safer on dark skin, while remaining effective for radiance and blemishes.

When are results visible?

The radiance and tightening effect of DMAE is visible from the first session. For skin texture and blemishes, a course of 4 to 6 sessions gives the clearest results.

How many sessions with a 60 ml bottle?

Each application requires only a few milliliters: the 60 ml bottle covers several dozen sessions, making it a very cost-effective format.

Is neutralization necessary?

Yes, we recommend a dedicated neutralizing solution such as GleySy Neutralizer Intense, followed by rinsing with water, to stop the acid's action in a controlled manner.

Can it be used in summer?

The manufacturer states there is no photosensitizing effect, allowing for year-round use with daily SPF 50 sun protection.

Is it suitable for sensitive or dark skin?

This is one of its main advantages: mandelic acid is the reference AHA for reactive, couperose-prone, or higher phototype skin.

How should it be stored?

In its original packaging, between 15 and 25°C, protected from light. It keeps for 12 months after opening.
